13 of the best Christmas jumpers available in Australia
Here they are – from attractive to downright ugly jumpers available in Australia, these are the top kids’ men’s and women’s Christmas jumper options open to you.
And we reckon these Christmas leggings will match perfectly too!
Ugly Christmas jumpers
Let’s get started with what many people are looking for – novelty Christmas jumpers that you wouldn’t dream of wearing at any other time of the year. Wherever you live, Christmas jumpers in Perth, Sydney, Darwin and Brisbane are a thing – and they’re also worn everywhere from Cairns down to Hobart and way beyond.
It’s far from unknown for friends, family and work colleagues to have competitions, in fact. Who can find the ugliest knitted Christmas jumpers available in Australia? If two or more of you have the same idea, you might even end up with matching Christmas jumpers to wear for work, a party or at home.
Many women’s and men’s Xmas jumpers feature a cartoon-type character of some sort – either in human or animal form. Pick a smoking Jesus or a tattooed or golfing Santa Christmas jumper, or go for Rudolph in sunglasses, a dog or cat in a Santa hat or a ‘Birthday Boy’ sweater depicting a rather Marley-esque version of Jesus.
Whether you prefer bulldogs or dachshunds, there are plenty of down right ugly Xmas jumpers to choose from for that office party or mufti day ugly sweater contest. The question is – who can find the very worst one?

Funny Christmas jumpers
You’d be forgiven for thinking that ugly and funny Christmas jumpers are one and the same thing – but searches for each actually reveal quite different results. Of course there are some crossovers, but funny Christmas jumpers available in Australia may feature amusing slogans or humorous images rather relying on pure ugliness.
Slogan Christmas jumpers include ‘I only do mornings on December 25th’, ‘Weiner Wonderland’, ‘Twas the nizzle before Chrismizzle’, ‘Life of the party’ and ‘I’m the nice one’. Most of these are knitted, and some features a nordic style trim as well as the main design.
You can also add a movie theme by opting for the likes of a Batman, Marvel, Superman, Gremlins or Star Wars Christmas jumper. Or go for one with Santa wearing a cardigan – open at the front to reveal his toned bare chest and washboard stomach. There is also a similar option featuring a Santa who perhaps hasn’t been to the gym lately.
If you want to raise a chuckle, it’s easy to find a funny Christmas jumper to inject some humour into your home or workplace.

Rude Christmas jumpers
Men’s and women’s Xmas jumpers with naughtier designs or slogans make great alternatives to funny or ugly Christmas sweaters.
Men could wear a knitted pullover featuring a naked Santa reclining by the fire, one showing a partying Christ egged on by the slogan ‘Go Jesus, it’s your birthday’, or one proclaiming ‘I have a big package for you’.
Men don’t get to have all the fun, of course. Outrageous Christmas jumpers for women feature slogans like ‘I put out for Santa’, a couple of strategically placed Christmas puddings in the chest region and even a ‘Jingle Bell End’ t-shirt with an arrow pointing sideways.
