I saw the Pajama Jean commercial:
Quite honestly, I couldn’t help myself.
I am weak.
The styling of your favorite jeans with the comfort of pajamas.
Pajama jeans are so comfortable you will want to sleep in them.
I like to sleep.
Just because you are busy doesn’t mean you can’t look sharp.
I am busy. I want to look sharp.
The secret is in the DORMISOFT fabric.
C’mon people, I mean they are made out of DORMISOFT!
I am powerless against DORMISOFT.
High contrast top stitching.
Back pocket design details.
EVEN brass rivets!
They look like they were made by some European designer.
I love some European designer!
Run a few errands in sweats and they start to wrinkle and sag.
But Pajama jeans look great ALL DAY LONG.
I just hate it when my sweats wrinkle and sag…OK, in reality I don’t own a pair of sweats, but if I did I would TOTALLY hate when they wrinkled and sagged.
Available in 8 sizes.
Including XS and plus sizes.
I am a size!
I was sold.
They had me at brass rivets.
I figured I would get $39.95 out of just mocking them on the internet for laughs.
So I went to the website and made my size selection.
Ummm…at this point I was a little frightened. These are the only jeans I have ever bought that span several sizes and it isn’t like you get to try them on in a dressing room before buying.
I threw a dart at the size chart and pushed the buy button.
A month later my pajama jeans arrived.
I admit to rolling my eyes as I unpacked them.
No zipper?
The high contrast stitching is VERY high contrast.
I now understood why the some European designer styled them anonymously.
Oh my.
And then I tried them on. And they didn’t look too bad. And then I found myself rubbing my legs just like the girl in the commercial. And then someone else even mentioned they kinda look good.
And I am wearing them right now.
And I don’t hate them…
UPDATE: During the first four hours of wearing my pajama jeans I lost one of the brass rivets.
UPDATE: The T-shirt they sent to me with my pajama jeans was “sized” according to the jeans that I bought. The T-shirt would fit most 8 year old girls. On me it was extremely tight and left 2 inches of my belly exposed…not a good look for me after 3 kids.
UPDATE: The Pajama Jeans website now forwards to PajamaGram where what I bought for $39.95 is now $59.95!
Really, PajamaGram?
UPDATE: I have tried to wear them several times. They are WAY too low in the back to sit and not expose the world to parts of my anatomy that I usually keep hidden under several layers.
UPDATE: Several people have commented below that they are available in some stores. I haven’t seen them in the stores yet, but PLEASE go try on pajama jeans before you buy them.
UPDATE: Several people below {OK, more than several} are irate that I haven’t returned the money for their pajama jeans returns. Let me just mention here that I am a random blogger and have no affiliation with Pajama Jeans.
I have a pair of these – bought at WalMart – and love them. So, I decided to order a couple of pairs for my sister and sister-in-law. Quite naturally went to the official website of Pajamajeans. It is one of the worst websites I have ever used and inadvertently ended up with two pairs. Long story short, ordered the other pair I wanted from another website. Anyway, after Christmas, arranged to return the one pair I didn’t need. They don’t make that easy but what is worse is that the paperwork that came only showed the cost of the two pairs: $39.95 x 2 which I compute to be $79.90 but the total on the sheet showed $102.75. Called them today. There is a shipping and handling charge of $22.85 for both pairs!! This was not shown at the time of check out nor on the paperwork that arrived with the items.
I love my jeans but would strongly suggest that you buy them from any other website, or a store that sells items “as seen on TV”, than this website.
Hope you are OK with a male response. I think the idea of very comfortable jeans for lounging are a great idea, even better if you can sleep in them in comfort and wear them to the store the next morning. I read of the problems with them such as low waist and am unsure how that would work with my 5′ wife with a big stomach. The knock-off version for men doesn’t even look like the pajama jeans and I wouldn’t wear something with fades and holes in public. The Pajama Jeans for women obviously are not made for a male’s anatomy so this is something that is unavailable for men who might like Pajama Jeans. Maybe a company will design a pajama jean for men that do not ride low on the waist and that would not be tight in the crotch. Wondering what other men think of the idea although I realize I’m posting to a mostly female group.
Want to find a pair to try on. A woman at work has them and loves them!!! I have to see for myself. Supposedly Target and Walmart has them in stores. I’ll be checking it out!!!
I’ve been wanting a pair of these for so long, but now am puzzled. The results are in, but they are varied, arent’ they? Perhaps it’s just a matter of taste. I think I’ll go to Walmart and try them on first. Oh God, Walmart………..sigh.
Love the blog, died laughing at some of the clueless posts!
Hello from Kiwi land!! This product has just crossed to the southern hemisphere (or rather I just noticed the add) and I saw them on the telly. Interested I immediately went online to check them out. Came across this blog and spent ages giggling at post and comments. Seriously would like to know how they fit a more bottomly lass (bless you for the photo Holly but the sight of your svelte leggy piccy was more than slightly demoralising for those of the shorter choccy biccy eating variely. Seriously 41??). Don’t know if distributor wil be a bit better here either. Thanks for the giggles everyone!
I LOVED THIS BLOG!!!! One of my very sophisticated friends on facebook, just remarked that she wants a pair of FUZZY PAJAMA JEANS! are you kidding me? xoxoxo
I don’t think I should buy a pair. Especially if my bottom is going to hang out. To bad. They sound so comfortable…. Thanks to all this feedback I won’t waste my time or money. Great blog.
I have 2 pairs of Pajama Jeans! I love them! A few tips: Do not ever ever put them in the dryer. Use fabric softener in your washer and then hang them up to dry. They are just long enough for me (5’7″). They only have a one inch hem so letting the hem out is not really worth it. I bought mine on ebay for 29.99 ea. No tee shirt came with them. If you are short or petite, you could get away with putting them in the dryer. I believe they would shrink up a little. I just wear mine around the house and love them. They are very comfortable and I looked dressed (as opposed to wearing pajama pants). Also, wash them before wearing them; the blue dye got on my hands too. I washed with cold water and used fabric softener then hung up to dry.
I returned 4 pairs of Pajama Jeans for different sizes and have not received anything. I have written them three times to no avail or answer. What can I do?
A little rationality lifts the quality of the dtbeae here. Thanks for contributing!

I bought a pair at a grocery store for $20. I love them so much, I have a hard time taking them off and I get a ton of compliments on them. I’ve ordered two pairs in black from pajamagram.com. One boot cut and the other skinny style. They also sell a light blue vintage style. I can’t wait to get my black pairs.
