Bundhosen

Men’s Traditional Bavarian Bundhosen

Bundhosen or Knickerbockers have a long-standing tradition. They were worn in early times, rooting back to 18th century France. They were known as “Culotte”, what we call knickerbockers now or the legwear – leathery, close-fitting shorts. Later native Alpine took on the trend and started wearing the knee-length lederhosen for their work. The elegant versions were considered appropriate wear for festive occasions. The leather used for crafting these knickerbockers was generally acquired from animals like sheep and goats since the upper-class families considered it a privilege in wearing the clothing crafted from hunted animals.
