Seriously seeking satin sleep shorts

Where can I find womens' satin or silk sleep shorts?

A few years ago I bought several pairs of Secret Treasures brand satin sleep shorts at Walmart. They were plus sized, sold separately, and about $5.00 each. I've worn them to tatters. At one point I found a satin short pajama sleep set at something like Lane Bryant for considerably more money ($30?) and bought it. It's falling apart, too.

My requirements are:

- satin or silk shorts
- cut fuller than a boxer short, or at least cut generously
- plus sized

At this point, I don't care about color or price. I just need to find some sleep shorts that won't make my husband laugh at me anymore. ("Are you mooning me, or..? Oh, that's just a big hole in your shorts.")

Do you have any friends with a sewing machine?

Here and here. These are micro modal but they're super super super silky. These are in Target XL which might (?) work.

If you scroll down here, there are silk boxers in XXL.

What about silk men's boxers? There are oodles of those and are longer than women's, and come in lots of sizes/colours.

Here are some for waists 38" - 46". If you think the leg opening would be ok, might be worth a go. The other thing is that silk boxers for women are generally sold in the spring/summer, so if you can hold out until then, the usual suspects will start to re-stock, I'd imagine. Or get some silk/satin, your old shorts, and head to a little local tailor for copies.

Second the recommendation for Target. I've bought some really cute ones there and they do come in plus sizes.
