This time period refers to a selected product class inside the sleepwear market: pajamas that includes imagery associated to the Dr. Seuss character, the Grinch, bought by the retailer Goal. These merchandise are sometimes wanted throughout the vacation season and are related to festive apparel.
The recognition of such merchandise stems from the enduring enchantment of the Grinch character and the widespread recognition of Goal as a significant retail vacation spot. Providing themed sleepwear offers a seasonal income stream for the retailer and caters to client demand for holiday-specific merchandise. This aligns with broader tendencies in character licensing and the commercialization of common tradition, notably round holidays.
