Best in Xmas Pajamas

This page is the short list. Out of every matching set we carry this season, these 51 are the ones families actually bought the most and rated the highest, which is how we decide what counts as the best family Christmas pajamas. They are sorted by sales, so the sets at the top are the ones most likely to show up in someone's Christmas morning photo. If you want the full range, with every print and color, head to our matching Christmas pajamas collection.

What Makes These the Best Family Christmas Pajamas

We didn't pick these by eye. A set has to clear four bars before it lands here:

• It sells. The page is ranked by real orders, and eight of the sets carry our Best Seller tag.
• Shoppers rate it. Of the 47 sets with ratings, 45 sit at 4.7 stars or higher, and the average is 4.8.
• It fits the whole family. Every set comes in women's and men's sizes, 49 have kids' sizes, 48 have a pet size and 37 go down to baby.
• It holds up. All 51 are pre-shrunk, with flat seams and a printed tagless label, so they still fit next December.

That last point matters more than it sounds. The best Christmas pajamas for a family are the ones that get worn again, not the ones that shrink a size after the first wash on December 26.

Best Christmas Pajamas for Women, Men and Couples

Because every set on this page includes both women's and men's cuts in the same print, this is also where to start if you are shopping the best Christmas pajamas for couples. Order one of each and you're matching; add the kids later if you want.

Women's and men's sizes run S to 2XL on nearly every set, and 3XL on 35 of them. Five prints go up to 4XL: Christmas Tree & Car, Mug & Gingerbread Blue, Gingerbread Black, Christmas Tree Dark Green and Snow Globe Dark Green. For more extended sizes, see our plus size Christmas pajamas.

If you are after the best men's Christmas pajamas in particular, look at the collared, button-front styles such as Fair Isle Print Collared Red, or browse all collared Christmas pajamas. Most of the women's and men's sets have pockets and an elastic waist, many with a drawstring.

Best Kids Christmas Pajamas, From Baby Rompers to Size 12-13Y

Kids' sizes on this page start at 2Y and run to 8-9Y on 46 sets; 35 of them keep going to 10-11Y and 12-13Y. That makes these some of the best kids Christmas pajamas for families with a tween who still wants in on the photo.

Baby

Baby sizes usually run 3-6M to 12-18M, and the baby piece is a one-piece romper in the same print, with snaps, so there is no waistband riding up during a diaper change. For more baby-only options, see Christmas baby pajamas.

Toddlers and big kids

Under US rules, kids' sleepwear must be snug-fitting or flame-resistant, and the kids' and baby sizes here are made to meet that rule, so order your child's usual size rather than sizing up. Want more choice in kids' sizes? Browse Christmas kids pajamas.

Top-Rated Prints: Gingerbread, Fair Isle and Christmas Trees

Gingerbread is the clear winner this year, appearing on 13 of the 51 sets, followed by Christmas trees on 11 and Fair Isle knit patterns on 8. The three best-selling sets at the top of the page, Christmas Tree & Car, Mug & Gingerbread Blue and Gingerbread Black, were also among the best family Christmas pajamas of 2025. In total, 17 sets are returning favorites from last year, and the other 34 are new for 2026.

Stretch Knit, Satin or Fleece: Which Fabric Is Best?

Most sets here, 42 of 51, are a 95% polyester, 5% spandex stretch knit. It's soft, it gives when kids climb all over the couch, and it goes through the washer and dryer on a normal cycle. A few use a 94/6 or 96/4 blend, which feels about the same.

• Satin (4 sets, including Letters to Santa Satin Cream): smooth and lightweight, best for adults who run warm. Machine wash cold and line dry.
• Fleece (3 sets, including Gingerbread Print Black): thicker and warmer for a cold house or a cabin Christmas. See more in Christmas fleece pajamas.
