Questions About Lederhosen

To ensure the best fit, we recommend taking an actual measurement using the size chart available on our product pages.

We recommend ordering size 34 for a comfortable fit.

If you are a 32 waist, we recommend ordering the same size, as our Lederhosen have a true-to-size fit.

The waist measurement is in inches.

The Lederhosen Short and Lederhosen Kneebound models include suspenders, while the Goat Lederhosen comes with a belt.

The small leather loop that is included is designed to hold the suspenders at the back when they are crossed (placed on top of each other). This loop ensures that the suspenders stay securely in place, providing a comfortable and authentic fit for your Lederhosen.

Yes, there is an opening for convenience when using the restroom.

First and foremost, never put your Lederhosen in the washing machine—this can ruin the leather. Instead, gently brush off dust with a microfiber brush and, for tougher situations, hand wash them delicately in room temperature water. Always air dry your Lederhosen after each wear, and avoid heat sources that could deform the leather. For stubborn stains or after several wears, consider professional leather cleaning to keep them looking their best.

Questions About Dirndl Dress

Use our size chart and remember to consider both bust and waist measurements for the best fit.

Underneath a Dirndl Dress, women typically wear a blouse made of white cotton or lace. The blouse may have short or elbow-length sleeves and is designed to provide modest coverage while still showcasing the fitted bodice of the Dirndl. Some women also choose to wear a petticoat beneath the skirt to add fullness and accentuate the traditional look.

Our Dirndl Dress come as a complete 3-piece set, including the Dirndl dress, a traditional white V-neck cotton blouse with lovely ruffles, and a matching apron. This package provides everything you need for an authentic Bavarian outfit, perfect for any festival or event.

The position of your Dirndl Dress bow is key to signaling your relationship status! Tied on the left means you're single, on the right means you're taken, in the front center traditionally indicates virginity or undecided status, and in the back usually means you're a widow or a waitress.

Your Dirndl Dress can be safely washed in your household washing machine. Just be sure to wash the apron and the blouse separately to prevent color bleeding. Use a 30-degree Celsius wash cycle with low spin speed and a delicate detergent. Never leave your Dirndl in the washing drum or water for too long to prevent discoloration, and always air dry it on a hanger. If in doubt, consider taking it to a trusted cleaning service to ensure your Dirndl stays in perfect condition for years to come.
