Walt Disney World Spring Style 2025
What People are Wearing at Walt Disney World for Spring
Spring has arrived at Walt Disney World and your Disney vacation is coming up, so what should you plan to pack and wear?
Listen to this Story on the Disney Travel Style Podcast
We studied what people are wearing this spring at Walt Disney World, and added our recommendations for the best types of clothing to pack and wear for your next Disney vacation.
Now that the Orlando weather is turning much warmer, you'll need to pack accordingly to ensure that you are comfortable -- particularly for park visits.
The Most Popular Disney Parks Outfit for Spring
The most common and comfortable outfit for a day in the parks this spring is the classic t-shirt and shorts combination. Lightweight tees are a good choice, but you will still be fine in a standard heavyweight t-shirt.
For t-shirt colors, one thing to note is that the majority of guests are still wearing darker colored tees, coming out of the winter months. Approximately 20 per cent of Disney Park guests are wearing white tees and tops, while 10 per cent are wearing very dark (or black) tops.
With the spring weather settling in, the darker choice of t-shirt/top colors is still fine. However, it is getting warmer, so bear in mind that the darker colors will attract more heat from the sun. We are not yet into the true heat of an Orlando summer, but still, black is likely on its latter end of being an optimal color. So, if you prefer these darker shades, you should be good to go until closer to the middle or end of May.
If you get uncomfortable in the heat or want to focus on maintaining a cool body temp over the style of your top, we would recommend switching now to lighter color or white t-shirts and tops. Looser fitting shirts will also help to keep you cool as the parks begin to heat up.
Don’t Forget About Footwear for the Parks
Footwear can also be affected by the heat of Disney Parks. As the pavement gets hotter, you'll want to consider how this affects what type of footwear you choose.
Far and away, sneakers or running shoes with good padding are the most popular footwear at Walt Disney World. This is true for several reasons, from the padding that offers extra cushion to the snug fit that will lessen the potential for blisters. Be sure to wear socks and shoes with a breathable fabric will help to keep you going throughout the day.
There are a smaller percentage of guests at Walt Disney World wearing flip flops, sandals or tennis shoes/skateboard shoes. These offer less padding than runners and can be a little more punishing when it comes to hot feel from the pavement or tired legs. So be sure to consider what will work best for you and the other guests in your group.
Pants, Shorts or Leggings?
For bottoms, shorts of all kinds are still the most popular choice. This works year-round at Walt Disney World, so the main consideration is to go with comfort and style. We are not yet into the true heat and humidity of summer, so thigh burn isn't yet a big issue (if you tend to suffer from this during the dog days of summer).
Spring can sometimes mean cool mornings (with temperatures around 50°F or 10°C), which meant that some guests chose to wear jeans or leggings. However, the parks can heat up quickly when the sun rises, so if you don’t mind a cool start to the day, shorts or other warm weather bottoms are still the way to go.
Nights are getting warmer as well, meaning that extra layers may no longer be necessary to pack. As always, check the local weather forecast for your week of travel to get specific temperatures for your vacation.
