How Should I Measure Myself for Lederhosen?
Thelederhosen takes pride in continuing the tradition of crafting personalized lederhosen, bringing the rich German heritage to life—while offering much more affordable, budget-friendly prices.

At thelederhosen, our sizing guide includes detailed measurements for the chest, waist, and hips. Once you’ve accurately recorded your body measurements, you’ll be able to order a made-to-measure, custom-fit garment with ease.
Side/Back Length of Lederhosen
After you’ve measured your height and other body dimensions, refer to the size chart provided with each product. Each size lists a corresponding side length, which indicates the total length of the lederhosen. By comparing these with your own measurements, you can select the lederhosen length that suits you best. Even better—you’re not limited to the standard chart; you can request a custom side length for your lederhosen. At thelederhosen, we specialize in creating made-to-measure designs tailored to your preferred fit.
NOTE:
THIGH: Measure the circumference 8 cm below the crotch (in cm).
KNEE CUFF: Measure the circumference 8 cm below the hollow of the knee.
