The assortment available at Lederhosens embodies the authentic German design philosophy and features premium, genuine cow leather. Similar to any genuine leather item, your Lederhosen will require a period of time to mold and adapt to your body's shape and size. To discover your ideal fit, please adhere to the following guidelines.
Lederhosen and Bundhosen naturally loosen up by approximately 0.5 to 1 inch after being worn 2-3 times. It is essential to break in the leather prior to Oktoberfest. Moreover, if you are unsure about your exact Lederhosen size, it is advisable to opt for a larger size. Please ensure that you measure around your waist accurately. Please note that international sizes for leather clothing may differ from standard US/UK sizes.
Waist Measurement:
Using a tape measure, determine the circumference of your waist while keeping the tape as close to your body as possible. Avoid exerting excessive pressure against the skin. Position the tape at the level where you typically wear your pants, slightly above the hip bone.
Inseam Measurement:
Measure the distance from the crotch area to the knee, following a straight downward line. For bundhosen, measure down to the ankle instead of the knee.
Seat/Hip Measurement:
Measure around the fullest part of your hips, ensuring the tape remains as horizontal as feasible, without compromising its position.
Thigh Measurement:
Similar to the seat measurement, measure the circumference of the fullest part of a single thigh, not both combined. This corresponds to the size of one thigh.

Size Guide for Dirndl



While making a purchase, we kindly advise you to consider that our current dresses are designed to best fit bodies similar to those of our models in the pictures. For women with a larger bust measurement, we recommend going up a size or even two sizes. This will provide you with more room and allow for minor tailoring adjustments to the waist if needed. Please note that international sizes for leather clothing may differ from standard US/UK sizes.
Before selecting your desired option for purchase, please take a moment to review our size measurement suggestions below:
Chest:
Ensure that the measuring tape is held horizontally or parallel to the ground while measuring around the fullest part of your chest. Take the measurement without exerting excessive pressure on the tape, aiming for the most accurate results possible.
Hips:
Measure around the fullest part of your hips, making sure to keep both legs close together. It is recommended to measure your hips in front of a mirror to ensure the tape remains as horizontal as possible.
Waist:
Place the measuring tape around the narrowest part of your natural waist, which is typically slightly above the belly button and below the rib cage.
