20 Wonderfully Kitschy Hanukkah Pajamas That Are Both Festive & Cozy
Plaid prints, colorful menorah motifs, and dreidels galore.
The holiday season is here, and whether you like it or not, the matching pajama photos are imminent. The tradition has been around long before the internet was there to share the proof for all your mutuals to see, but in the last few years, we’ve seen a major rise in popularity. Now, kitschy, themed loungewear is almost as quintessential as an ugly holiday sweater — and I, for one, am absolutely loving it.
If it’s not already, your feed will soon be inundated with hundreds of people posing in the same buffalo plaid sets and Christmas tree-printed onesies, but little to no Hanukkah styles. It’s time to change that, don’t you think?
Thankfully, there are plenty of Hanukkah pajamas — covered in festive motifs and traditional Judaica, no less — that will help you celebrate in cozy, comfy style. From dreidel-spotted onesies to menorah printed pants and customizable tops, the internet is filled with a range of kitschy-fun Hanukkah pajamas.
Ahead, I’ll help you find the perfect PJs for you and your whole family (including your fur baby, obviously) for this year’s Festival of Lights. From simple plaid patterns to personalized styles and beyond, here are our top 20 picks.
Target’s cozy design features Hanukkah lions lighting candles and spinning dreidels. Designed to be breathable, they’re perfect for your post-Hanukkah feast.
Shop these subtle menorah-covered sets for everyone in your home — from your newborn to their favorite grandparent. This set is a limited edition, though, so get it while you can.
Dog lovers, this one is for you (and me...mostly me). Picture this: You’re watching your first holiday movie of the season (I suggest Falling For Christmas), snuggling with a glass of wine, swaddled in a cozy set of pajamas covered in Jewish puppies. Sounds like a dream come true right? Plus, reviewers say these are extra thick, so they’re great for when the temperature dips.
Informational and comfortable, this set showcases the “proper” spelling of the much-debated subject: How to properly spell Hanukkah (IYKYK). Although the top remains the same, the different bottoms make this duo easy to customize to your liking.

A colorful Hanukkah-themed onesie had to make the list, because sometimes you just want to throw on something comfy without giving it much thought. Show everyone you’re deep in the holiday spirit.
Not to be dramatic, but I’m obsessed with these fair isle pajamas — mostly because the butt pocket says “Happy Hanukkah.” Quirky, fun, and festive; just imagine how iconic these would look in a family photo. And these are preshrunk, so you don’t have to worry about them shrinking in the wash.
These pajamas read “oy to the world” — need I say more? Plus, the dark blue and black plaid is a classic Hanukkah combo. So festive and made of comfortable material, everyone in your family will want at least two pairs.
A simple “Happy Hanukkah” top with a colorful bottom is just the way to go sometimes. Since there are five different bottom choices, you’ll surely find one to match your aesthetic. Created with breathable cotton, these are so comfy you’re never going to want to take them off.
Are you a plaid lover? If so, this is the perfect set to get your family. It’s cute and a little bit corny, but what else could you possibly want from your PJs?
Another day, another super fun holiday onesie perfect for twinning. This baby is best paired with a large cup of hot chocolate and fuzzy socks.
