See, I think they are probably perfectly fine for the kind of guy who *enjoys* wearing fancy silk pajamas. Have you seen the A&E series? There are a couple of episodes where we get to see Wolfe's famous yellow silk pajamas and I always liked that he clearly has *several different* types of pajamas, there's one that is pinstripe-y and one that has sort of a speckly shiny pattern, and anyway, it always just struck me as very Wolfe. But imagining Archie in a similar pair of pjs.... he would just look RIDICULOUS. They're just not his type of thing.
Why some deserving man in the breadline wasn't gifted with the pajamas thirty seconds after their unwrapping will forever be a mystery.
Oh, I don't know, I think even if they *were* from his sister (say hypothetically, she married some rich guy and went off to live in Paris years ago and occasionally sends him weird random expensive presents) he'd still keep them, just like he keeps Wolfe's presents.
