Lederhosen, Bundhosen & Dirndl Size Guide

Bavarian Outfits Size Guide

Getting the right fit matters, especially for leather garments like Lederhosen and Bundhosen, which soften and mold to your body over time. Use the guide below to measure accurately before you order.

How to Measure

Waist: Measure around your natural waistline, where your torso bends side to side — not at your hip bone.

Hip: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape level.

Bust (for Dirndl dresses): Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

Chest (for jackets, vests, shirts): Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms.

Leather Fit Tip: Genuine leather Lederhosen and Bundhosen fit snugly when new and soften with wear. If you're between sizes, we generally recommend sizing down for the best long-term fit.

Note from the chart: All measurements are in inches. Genuine suede leather has limited elasticity compared with everyday jeans. If between two sizes, the chart recommends ordering one size up. Actual measurements may vary by up to 0.5 inch because leather is a natural material.
