The best lederhosen of 2016

Okay, let’s start by being honest here: we’ve all already got several pairs of lederhosen in our wardrobes at home. Then again, that – and the (admittedly very pertinent) argument that lederhosen are made to be kept and worn for a lifetime – has never stopped us from getting excited about the new season’s leather breeches. In that respect, 2016 is no exception, and the new batch of classic, high quality models hitting the market means that we’re going to have make space for another pair. But which?

In the lower price segment, you simply can’t beat Stockerpoint’s 1843 model, short lederhosen, in a reserved, quiet shade of old grey. The detail, too, is understated, as is the embroidery and the piping. Then again, these sturdy bottoms made of goat suede leather are not short on authentic details such as the knife-pocket on the right-hand leg. We’d call this a classic pair of lederhosen, perfect for long days at beer festivals and, with its easily combinable colouring, a great match for all of your existing shirts, socks, and other accessories.

Next up is an altogether pricier model: made of deerskin, this is definitely a step up into the big leagues, but one which rewards with astonishing craftsmanship and unbeatable quality. The object of our affections is model 1880 in the almost-untranslatable colour shade ofstoaoid (“stone old” – somewhere between stonewashed and vintage). This is definitely a pair of lederhosen that will get people looking and talking: any Bavarian worth their salt will recognise the genuine deerskin material and marvel at the lovingly detailed embroidery... If you’re a Munich regular who likes to look his best for The Fest, this is quite simply the kind of lederhosen you’ve been dreaming about!

In fact, our Lederhosen of the Year is also made of this magic material. This pair of knee-length leather breeches is so traditional, so classic, and so well-made that it’s almost revolutionary: it doesn’t have a big name – it’s referred to simply as 1913 - but it does have a strong colour (uroid, or “ancient”) and an unparalleled level of workmanship. Whether it’s the embroidery on the bib or the eye-catchingly broad stitched finish to the leg, this is a pair of lederhosen that just keeps on revealing well thought-out and expertly executed details. If we could only scrape together the funds for this King of All Lederhosen, we’d never need another one ever again. Ever. Well, until next season, that is...
