No issues with receiving pyjamas on F flights.
I would not ask as a J passenger as all stock onboard is limited and it is not part of the J product.

I wear F jimjams in CW too, as well as UA J. Just much more comfortable than the jeans I'm usually wearing during travelling.
I don't think it's inappropriate to be comfortable, in fact it should be encouraged.

Fair enough. For me it is partly this issue i.e. not getting off in clothes I have worn the previous day and slept in for a few hours, and also the comfort issue as noted by others as well. I usually take a fresh shirt to put on when I wake up as well. I guess it is also part of a "going to bed" routine for me to get changed. Having started doing this a few years ago I really can't see myself going back to not having pajamas.

probably have around 20 sets and I wear them regularly at home in the evening.
However, funny that I have never worn them on the actual plane!!
I always fear waking up 20 mins before landing and not having time to change - I nearly always do this.
And then having to walk though US immigration with them on.....
I think it would spoil my sleep, if I had to worry about getting changed back, before seatbelts came on..

My wife thinks they are a huge style flop (and chuckles inwardly when I wear them when we travel together "putting on our little DYKWIA jimjams from BA with all your Flyertalking friends, are we?" said with high pitched cynicism). The trouble with the BA PJs is that they are really shapeless and sloppy looking, especially after a few washes, as noted above. My current favourites in this respect are what LH gives out. Trousers more structured, top is thicker material and with buttons. The SQ set is nice too I think.

I guess I can just bring along my VA pajamas -- that'll show them for not giving sets out to the CW folk.

I don't take the offer of onboard pyjamas in F, but always travel with a pair of lightweight sweatpants / tracksuit bottoms to change into. Those and a t-shirt are infinitely more comfortable than the starchy rough feeling BA "pyjamas".

Well they are 100% cotton, so technically the same material as sweatpants and t shirts. Unlike other airlines offerings (yes, AA, I'm talking about your 90% polyester set!).
