Nail The Perfect Fit: Sizing Guide For Buying Authentic Lederhosen

When buying this traditional Bavarian attire, you must know how to get the Lederhosen sizing right. With years of experience selling Lederhosen online, the Lederhosen Store offers helpful sizing guides and tips to find the perfect fit. These tips can be used virtually anywhere since almost all Lederhosen are manufactured in Germany and use the same sizing standards. Lederhosen usually comes in small to plus sizes, catering to any physique.

How Should Lederhosen Fit

Lederhosen is supposed to fit snugly. It should be tight enough to remain in place but not pinch the body from any point. 46-size Lederhosen can fit men with a waist size of 29-30″ in jeans, 48-size Lederhosen can fit men with a waist size of 31-32″ in jeans, and so on. If you want to gain weight, you should buy one size larger than your jeans’ waist size and vice versa. Remember that the lacing is at the rear of the Lederhosen, so you can always tighten or loosen the waist to make it fit perfectly.

Choosing the Correct Lederhosen Size

True German Lederhosen is made from genuine sources such as goat suede, cowhide, deerskin, etc. One of the defining traits of leather is that it is tight but cracks under pressure, and the stitching stretches when you wear Lederhosen and move around in it.

Lederhosen and Bundhosen get loosened up to 0.5 to 1 inch after 2-3 times of wearing them. So, while purchasing Lederhosen online, remember not to choose a size bigger than what you are accustomed to since the Lederhosen will expand on its own because of the nature of leather. Selecting the closest size to your regular waist measurements is always good, so the Lederhosen sits well after expanding. If you plan to wear a tucked-in Bavarian shirt with the Lederhosen, choosing the size that fits accordingly is best.

Valuable Tips for Lederhosen Size Selection

It is always better to get one size large if you are unsure about your actual Lederhosen size. Here are a few tips to measure the size of your Lederhosen:

Waist: Measure your waist with the tape and keep it as close to your body as possible. Do not press it hard against the skin, though. Keep the tape at the point where you usually wear your pants, which would be a little above the hip bone.
Seat/Hip: Size your seat around the most packed section of the hip without compromising on the tape, which is to be kept as horizontal as possible.
Thigh: Just like the seat, consider the fullest part of the thigh to take the size for this area on your leg. This would be the size of a single thigh and not both combined.
Inseam: Starting from the crotch to the knee, measure the inseam straight downwards. In the case of a bundhosen, this would be measured slightly above knee length.
