These Sesame Street leggings are a cute way to add some nostalgic fun to your wardrobe.

The vibrant hosiery is definitely an attention grabber. They feature some of [children's favorite puppets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arr-x-kaws-sesame-street) such as the cookie monster, Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch and Bert and Ernie. While the images already make the fashion piece colorful enough, they also incorporate a [comic strip cycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peanuts-comic-1). The characters are all shown in squares in a variety of sizes, and they're all saying something that represents their character. For example, Oscar is seen in a garbage asking, "are you talking to me?" Likewise, the cookie monster appears to be yelling, "me hungry!"

While a younger generation would love a pair of these Sesame Street leggings, teenagers who grew up watching the show would rock these as well.
