Christmas jumpers are worn by many each and every year, and as the festive season rolls around, new styles grace the stores. Whether you like Christmassy Disney characters, festive jumpers that light up, or you prefer a little bit of sparkle and perhaps some tinsel, the high street likely has something to suit everybody and every budget.

But this year, Primark has released a Christmas jumper collab that has caused some controversy, with some labelling the unique design as "tat", and others referring to it as a "monstrosity." Coming in a Christmas-tree green, adorned in an argyle-type design including Christmas trees and snowflakes, you'd likely wonder what all the fuss was about- until you see the huge 'Subway' logo across the chest.

Taking to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK page, one woman wanted to share what she'd found while browsing her local Primark. She shared that the jumper was a steal, coming in at just £18, but commenters were left wondering whether the Subway jumper was actually to their taste.

Featuring Christmas trees, a zig-zag pattern, Subway sandwiches packed with tasty fillings, snowflakes, and the Subway logo, it's the perfect pullover for those who are obsessed with Crimbo, but also the fast food chain. The picture was captioned: "Subway Christmas jumper at Primark Lakeside on men's. £18."

Coming in sizes extra small, to an extra extra large, there's one for every Subway lover - but bargain hunters have been left divided. "Who wants a Subway jumper?", a sceptic asked.

One confused commenter wrote: "£18 for tat", as others commented saying that the price seemed a little steep for the fast fashion store. However, some were keener on it, writing: "Getting you this babes", as they tagged their lucky pal. A different Facebook user also wondered whether if you wore the jumper, Subway would give you "free subs" as it seemed like "free advertisement."

Someone posted a gif of a person running, meaning that they were running and not walking to get their hands on one of the individual jumpers before they ran out of stock. Another said: "Have we had this monstrosity in?", meaning in the Primark store that she works at.
