I was present shopping and saw a lovely Christmas jumper I knew my friend would love. The problem was, if I gifted it to her, she wouldn’t get as much wear out of it until next year. 

It sparked the question, how long can you wear Christmas jumpers for, after Christmas Day?

    If it’s just a festive jumper then all winter, but if it’s blatantly a Christmas only jumper then yes, just for the week or so. However, these days anything goes so who would really mind.

    I disliked every Christmas jumper I was given so I'd say not even on Christmas day should a Xmas jumper be worn lol just my opinion 🤣😉 ( sorry to the people who like them)

    I wear mine as long as possible. I'd probably go up to New Years eve to maximise the cost per wear metric  :D

    What's on everyone's Christmas jumper? Mine is a reindeer that's antlers light up!

    You could sing We Three Kings.
    I think my singing should be kept under wraps  :D

    I have about 12 Christmas Jumpers... Most of them are Disney, Marvel or DC patterned.

    I always think this about buying Christmas themed items for Christmas, so tend not to. 

    Things like Christmas clothing as well as toiletries, alcohol, candles or jigsaws etc.  Really people would prefer those early in December.  I certainly wouldn't want to be constantly reminded of Xmas past once we've entered January! 

    Only exception would be something like chocolate or biscuits where they'll be used up within the week.
