19 Momme Silk Pyjamas: Why They’re the Best
Silk has long been considered the fabric of timeless luxury. But not all silk is the same. When choosing silk pyjamas, one of the most important characteristics is the fabric’s density, measured in momme. For sleepwear, 19 momme natural silk offers the perfect balance of softness, durability, drape, and breathability.
At POLA, we work exclusively with certified natural silk (GOTS + OEKO-TEX) to create premium pyjamas that feel like a second skin. Here is why 19 momme silk is the gold standard — and why it matters for your comfort and health.
What Is 19 momme silk pyjamas and why it matters.
Momme (mm) describes the weight and density of silk.
• 16 momme — thinner, more delicate, less durable
• 19 momme — ideal balance of softness and strength
• 22+ momme — thicker, heavier, better for bedding, not sleepwear.
19 momme is the sweet spot for premium pyjamas because it gives silk a fluid drape while remaining highly resistant to wear.
