German Men like Lederhosen

Lederhosen

Don’t be stupid – do not believe in any prejudice you have heard about german men. No, we do not wear Lederhosen all the time!

Maybe even the whole world may think, that german men like “Lederhosen”. There seem to be an image of this funny Hill-Billys with leather-trousers, drinking beer and singing funny songs. We do not know, where this common prejudice comes from. For sure german men do not look like this young man at the right side. And we do not like to wear them … mostly. There might be some situations, where they are very practical. Lederhosen are very strong clothers…

But there is a little bit of truth in those words about German men like Lederhosen. Maybe not the ones you are thinking of at first. But german men (except the ones from Cologne) have special things in mind, when they think about lederhosen …

Lederhosen we like

    I’m from south Germany, Bavaria, and I’ve to say: “Fritz you are right.”
    Even in Bavaria, and we are invented the Lederhosen, we don’t wear Lederhosen all the time. But for special celebrations, like Oktoberfest, most of the Bavarians have there Lederhosen or Dirdl (the female, Bavarian traditional dress).
    Even for our Bavarian girls there are really good looking Lederhosen.

    for reference.

    Cheers
    and “Pfiati”

    To be honest, I like to look at asses in lederhosen. But only womens asses. When i see ass in leather i start thinking… erm… about balloons full of air. Dunno why… Maybe Zigmund Freid can give an answer…

    Anyway if you see somewhere nice WOMAN in lederhosen please tell her that a guy in Belarus thinks it’s a wonderful invention – her ass in the lederhosen.

    Happy Valentine’s Day To all!

    But he was called by himself and a big bunch of idiots as “Greatest German”.

    But NoBeLe is correct: Looks like guys from Austria archive often High position in other countries … Germany has others (like chief of the Deutsche Bank) or even in US (Like “Chief of California”). Maybe it is because of the leather trousers?

    Sure, not a lot of men wear lederhosen, but some do. I’ve spent time in very traditional parts of Germany, where it is not uncommon for men to wear lieder hosen. Mostly they wear them on Sundays, or for traditional calibrations. I was once picked up by a cab driver who was wearing lederhosen.

    Also, I have never seen so many men and woman wearing leather pants than in Germany. Not lieder hosen, just black leather pants, as if they were a rock star or in a biker gang.

    I would like to see Lederhosen and Dirndl make a comeback in the modern world. That Austrian guy looks very fashionable-the essence of “cool”.

    I disagree because ,lederhosen is very much worn ( not only in bavaria,austria,switzerland,sud tirol,slovenia; both by men&women the proof is last year we were in “kitzbuhel,tirol and i can assure you that we saw a lot of ,both men&women wearing “kurze-lederhosen&suspenders” and me and my wife bought ourselfs a pair each really they are so smashing to wear( nothing to do with the “trash crummy mode “of today!!!

    I figured Lederhosen were worn for traditional/ceremonial purposes (say like a party or something)

    Traveling Germany on 2011, one goal of this 2nd generation American was to seriously look at knee-length Lederhosen as a take-home link long family heritage.

    Outside of Carnival in Munchen, only several Bavarian men were seen wearing them in public, as well as a man working a farm.

    At Almenraush store in Munchen, daughter got a full dirndl and her father ourchased an excellent knee-length Lederhosen with braces (suspenders). Price was surprisingly low, quality high. Highest recommendation for the store.

    And if you want them, for owning a pair of Lederhosen.

    As a middle-ager, the ultra-tight look was not desirable. In retrospect, the Lederhosen are comfortable and fun, though in metro Chicago, not seen outside of Oktoberfests here and Milwauke, despite the large Germanic-heritage population.
