They are called "jeggings" here. Definitely not billed as pajamas. I see gals wearing them out all over. It's disturbing really. Especially if the gals are over the age of 8.

Welcome to fat America, am I right? PS I've been following you for a few months now and I don't think I've commented before…so hi!

Ha. Easy access jeans.

SD…People laughed at the Snuggie and that friggen kid is a millionaire now. This could be next. Look out!!!! You really are curious too. I just know it!….jk…haha

Jeggings (aka pajama jeans) is a growing epidemic here in T&T. It's gotten to the point where I can't walk half a block & not be forced to witness the horror.

NYE is good for fireworks. If you live in a state where it is legal to purchase and use fireworks.

And to comment on a previous comment… The pajama jeans are not jeggings. Jeggings are leggings that LOOK like jeans. The pajama jeans are pajama bottoms that LOOK like jeans. Both are equally hideous.

I forsee pajama jeans being worn at a Wal-mart near you

The commercials for these pajama jeans are ridiculous. They look like jeggings but aren't. They are still made of a "cotton, denim spandex blend" with sweatpant liner on the inside so they are softer. They are stupid! I don't own a pair of sweatpants because they scream lazy fat ass…and I'm already enough of both of these that I don't have to broadcast it. I sure as shit am not going to walk around wearing "pajama jeans" because they say, "Hi. I've given up on life and love and am running home to eat uncooked cookie dough." No thanks!

I saw the commercial for that and it made me face palm. I would NEVER wear that. Just no.

I still wear dress up pants and heels alot even though I have been unemployed since April. I will NOT resort to sweatpants! NO! College starts back up next week and I can't help but think if these type of people are going to be my competition when I hit the grad school interviews the world is suddenly looking up. I have a chance! YAY!

Okay, so my fiance's sister bought some of those for their brother (my fiance's brother) and they basically look like blue pajama pants with fake pockets.. they don't look nearly like real jeans, and if i ever see anyone wearing them "out on the town" i will proceed to point and laugh.. loudly

Ah!! I hate that goddamn commercial!!

Hi, I'm Heather.

Damn i was so going to buy you a pair for next christmas when the men's version came out. hope you have a happy new year

Them 'jammies can't be that new, 'cause I bought a pair @ Goodwill 4 yrs ago. Flannel, a little stretchy, built like jeans but lacking rivets & yellow stitching, they're really comfy & look great when you're mopping the floor, making tomato sauce, scrubbing toilets, remodeling your house, stuff like that.

A date? – That's when you go out someplace, generally with a MOS (Member of the Opposite Sex), right, who ('scuse me, but it's been awhile) pays for everything, right, so unless the guy takes you to Walmarts or McD's (thereby negating all rules & drastically reducing the likelihood of a next date but allowing you to wear your 'jammies shamelessly), it behooves you to look halfway decent? That's right, isn't it, how I just defined "date"?

Of course it is, my memory's not THAT bad, so pay attention: Before you spend a dime, there's some things you should know about them 'jammies: Microscopic particles of anything not dark blue – cat hair, flour, bits of paper, paint chips, sawdust, all kinds of shit – will jump, fly, crawl, walk, drive, ride a bike, take a bus, take a cab, hitchhike, do ANYTHING – teensy little bugs, no joke, will even die – just to attach themselves to your nice comfy dark-blue 'jammies that looked great right after you took them out of the dryer & stayed that way for 10, maybe even 20 seconds.
In sum: they're really, really comfortable, look good under the right circumstances like when you're painting the kitchen, are well made, have 4 1/2 pockets (a major plus) & belt loops (null value) and, as I said, look terrific until you put them on.
SLEEP in them? Absolutely not. No WAY!!! You want your bed full of little white thingies?

Conclusion? Overpriced, pocketed sweats that a lot more people would buy if they were made out of denim.

Umm, I have a pair of jeggings, but I didnt know that until a friend pointed it out. I just liked them in the shop and they were really cheap.

What I was really going to say is I am totally with you SD on NYE being completely overated and that isnt because I am a nigel no friends, I have been invited to a couple of parties nyah nyah.
It is just the forced "we gotta have fun" atmosphere of these things that is so annoying. Much rather have a few friends over any other time and just chill with some good food and wine.
Happy new Year

OMG, please, please, please don't let that um er "fashion" leave your shores. I think I would prefer to be seen out in my PJ's.

Happy New Year whatever you may have planned.

i hate NYE…amatuer night across america…

if you add those PJJ with a snuggy, i think the world will implode…

I also dislike NYE… it is just an excuse to get drunk and party. I have not seen a commercial for PJ Jeans but from the picture they look… ugly. Not sure who the hell would wear them, definitely not anyone I know

Sweet blog! Followed =)

I saw a commercial for those a little while back, and I was appalled.

Then, I started to think about how comfy they probably are…

They'll probably be just like Snuggies. First, people say they're ridiculous, then people start to buy them and like them, and now, even *I* have one (it was a Christmas present, so sue me).

These pants are perfect for the McDonalds employees featured in Morgan Spurlock's documentary: Super Size Me.

These pants are perfect

Dude… I blog and I still wander down the street talking to myself….

I'm a sucker for anything comfortable, so if those pajama jean makers make them more flattering higher quality, I don't care what people say, I'm on board. I'm totally that girl who rocks black leggings regularly because they are so comfy and to be honest, they're very flattering. That said… NYE, even though there was a lot going on that night, I stayed home and watched my newly purchased seasons of 21 Jump Street. Can you say awesome?! Yes, I am a twenty-something nerd, but it's darn cold in Minnesota and I had a hot date with Johnny. Happy New Year!

you are so damn right about the NYE thing.i think its so overrated.

I'm still recovering from 'Sham-Wow'.

"OMG, a flood!"
"Oh, it's ok, I have a Sham-Wow."

Hi I just read your stance on New Years Eve, and I think I wrote exactly the same on my blog too lol Great Minds huh cheers Marg

I think the problem is not NYE being overrated but all the other days being underrated. You can plan a month or a day in advance for every other day of the year and if you'll do it right (try incorporating those pajamas in your plans) you'll have just as much fun. Having fun is simple.

I just joined this blog thing. Needless to say. I am having a hard time figuring it all out because I'm not a computer person. I haven't even figured out how to put a blog in. Anyway, I stumbled onto blogs and I liked your blog name. Oh by the way… Dude, you're funny.

ok, oranja, you're stupid….holidays are exuses for people to get drunk, get free shit, and miss work, I do that without it being some "Special Day". How many people really say, they drank that long island for Jesus?……. Yea…I thought so. No. No one gives a shit about the actual meanings of "The Holidays". And NYE resolutions, just a way to make yourself sound "self-motivated" to be "self-improved", when you really know that your not gonna trade your sunday night special at the strip club for a sunday night sermon at the local Babtist Church. And the pajama jeans…. no one is wearing them, because no one will pay 50 fucking dollars for sweats disguised as jeans. Just saying. Anyways, Great blog!

I completely agree about New Year's Eve not being all that great. My husband and I just stay home and watch TV. This year it was Japanese MMA. Not so great, I'll stick to UFC.

Um, I put a link to one of your posts in my blog today. I hope that's okay…I haven't been doing this long.

The best thing about pajama jeans is that they come with the free T-shirt, you can keep it, even if you return the jeans. Awesome! A whole outfit for only $39.95 (plus shipping and processing, whatever that is, of course…)

Sounds like you have a lot of bottled up anger, Racheal…which is good. You should blog!

Anyways, if I see anyone wearing those damn pajama jeans, I'll take my lighter to em' and start new years eve early.

Speaking of NYE, I'm with you Simple Dude. This past NYE, I was at a friend's house for a bonfire, and nobody noticed that it was past midnight until I looked at my cell phone. As you can see, nobody gave a shit. There was no drinking involved, either, so it's not like we were too drunk to notice.

While these "pajama jeans" seem comfortable and fashionable? (doubtful here), I wonder what these might look like on anyone shaped curvier than those stick thin models. Umm……
