Unicorn Print Winter Leggings for Girls

Fleece-Lined Leggings with Unicorn and Rainbow Print, for Girls Ages 2-10

These unicorn print winter leggings take a fairly ordinary wardrobe basic and turn it into something your daughter will actually be excited to put on. Underneath a busy print of unicorns, rainbows, clouds and stars, they are lined in soft brushed fleece, so they do the job of keeping little legs warm through autumn and winter without feeling stiff or bulky.

Unicorns remain one of the most requested prints in girls’ clothing year after year, and our piece on why little girls love unicorn clothing so much goes into some of the reasons why. Whether your daughter already has a soft spot for anything sparkly and magical, or you are shopping for one who does, this print tends to be a safe bet.

What Makes These Leggings Special

The print itself is more detailed than a simple unicorn silhouette. Look closely and you will spot unicorns in different poses, rainbows, fluffy clouds, stars, small gift icons and a cursive “dreams” script scattered across the fabric, giving it more to notice than a print, that repeats a single motif.

Underneath, the leggings are lined with a thick brushed fleece that traps warmth without adding much bulk, which matters for a legging that needs to fit comfortably under a school skirt or pinafore. You can read more about how this kind of lining compares to other winter fabrics in our guide to fleece in kids’ winter leggings, and if you are curious about which prints tend to be popular with children, our piece on popular patterns for kids’ leggings covers a few more.

Fabric and Quality

The outer layer is a stretchy blend of velvet, spandex and polyester, which gives the leggings enough give to keep up with a child who is running, climbing or sitting cross-legged on a nursery floor all day. Fleece-lined leggings and plain thermal leggings are often confused for the same thing, but they are not quite identical, our fleece versus thermal leggings guide explains the difference if you are comparing options.

The elastic waistband sits flat rather than digging in, and the ankle cuffs are overlocked to stop them fraying with repeated washing. For more on how different linings and fabrics hold up over a winter of daily wear, our guide to materials used in winter leggings is worth a look.

Choosing the Right Fit and Style

These leggings run true to size, so it is worth measuring your daughter’s waist and comparing it to the table below rather than guessing from age alone, since children of the same age can vary quite a bit in size. Our girls size guide has more detail on how our sizing generally runs if you are ordering for the first time.

If you are not sure how to build an outfit around a legging like this, our guide on choosing comfortable leggings for kids covers what to look for beyond just the print, things like waistband height, seam placement and how much stretch to expect.

Size Guide

These leggings are available in six sizes, from 2 years up to 10 years. Compare your daughter’s current waist measurement against the table below before ordering, and allow a small tolerance since every measurement is taken by hand.

Perfect for These Occasions

These leggings are built for everyday wear rather than a single occasion, which is really where a lot of the value is. They work well under a school pinafore in winter, on their own for nursery and playdates, and layered under a dress for extra warmth on a cold day. Our guide on winter leggings for schoolwear and our roundup of popular school outfit combinations with leggings both have more ideas if you are building out a winter school wardrobe.

They also make a genuinely easy gift. A unicorn print in particular tends to land well without needing to know a child’s exact taste in outfits, and our gift ideas for unicorn and mermaid lovers has more suggestions if you are shopping for a birthday or Christmas present and want to build out a small gift bundle around the theme.

Comfort and Fit

A legging that a child will not tolerate for long is not much use, however good the print looks on the hanger. The elastic waistband means there is nothing to fasten and nothing to dig in when she sits down, which matters over a full day at nursery or school.

The stretch in the fabric moves with her rather than restricting her, so she can bend, climb and sit cross-legged without the leggings pulling at the knees. Our guide on the benefits of winter leggings for kids covers more on why this kind of fit tends to work better for active children than a stiffer thermal trouser.

Complete the Look

Tucked into boots with a chunky knit jumper on top, they work as a full outfit on their own, or they can go under a dress or skirt for extra warmth without changing how the outfit looks from the front.
