What do men wear with lederhosen ?

If you’re planning to wear Mens Lederhosen for Oktoberfest or any traditional Bavarian celebration, you might wonder: What do men actually wear with lederhosen? Whether you're dressing up for a beer festival, a cultural event, or simply love the vintage Alpine aesthetic, this guide will help you style your outfit from head to toe — authentically and stylishly.

Key Components of a Traditional Lederhosen Outfit

Here are the most common items men wear with lederhosen:

Trachten Shirt (Checkered or White)

  • The most traditional top with lederhosen is a checkered shirt in red, blue, green, or classic white.

  • For a clean and modern look, go with a crisp white button-up.

  • Cotton or linen material is best — breathable and lightweight.

Tip: Tuck the shirt into your lederhosen for a neat, tailored appearance.

Lederhosen Suspenders or H-Style Braces

  • Most authentic lederhosen include suspenders with decorative embroidery.

  • These aren’t just for style — they keep your leather pants comfortably in place.

 Want a modern twist? Try lederhosen without suspenders and pair with a slim-fit shirt.

Haferlschuhe (Traditional Bavarian Shoes)

  • These shoes are low-cut, lace-up leather footwear specifically made for lederhosen outfits.

  • They're sturdy, stylish, and perfect for long days at Oktoberfest.

Shop authentic Haferlschuhe at Trendy Tannery to complete your Bavarian look.

Knee-High or Loferl Socks

  • Loferls (calf warmers) are worn with short white socks underneath.

  • They’re traditional, eye-catching, and help you stay warm during fall festivals.

Pair them with brown or black Haferlschuhe for a classic Bavarian touch.

Trachten Jacket or Waistcoat

 Trendy Tannery offers tailored men’s Trachten jackets in sizes XS–7XL.
