Picture your child walking into class dressed head-to-toe as a mischievous leprechaun - bright green hat with buckle, oversized ginger beard, funky green sunglasses and all. This Kids Leprechaun Costume brings Irish folklore to life with seven pieces that go together in minutes: textured green vest over plaid shorts, striped stockings up to the knees, and that brilliant pointed hat that screams "pot of gold at the end of the rainbow." The vest, shorts, and hat are all polyester with a bit of structure so they hold their shape through a full day of classroom shenanigans.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

The vest and shorts have a relaxed fit that works over a long-sleeve shirt (which you'll need to provide - a plain white tee or thermal works perfectly). The stockings stretch to fit most kids' legs comfortably. If your child is between sizes, we'd go up one - the elastic beard strap adjusts easily and a slightly looser fit means they can move around without feeling restricted all day.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes - the vest goes over any long-sleeve top (white looks most traditional but any light colour works), and the shorts fit over leggings or trackies if the weather's cold. The beard elastic adjusts to sit comfortably over the head without messing up their hair too much. Stockings pull on like regular tall socks.

Care: Wipe down the hat and glasses, hand-wash the vest and shorts in cold water, air-dry everything. The beard can be gently brushed if it gets tangled.
