Cleaning a Lederhosen

How to clean Lederhosen? –the question we have been asked repeatedly at our online store, Lederhosen Store. The Lederhosen are robust – trust us, they are. They do not need much care, to begin with – although, make it a routine to brush dust and dirt off them after each use. When it comes to blemishes and stains, they are a tricky bunch. With stains – proceed according to the color and type of the leather.

Sleek leather and darker color leather items can be cleaned with a damp rag, run the damp cloth across the surface, and this should take care of all the stains that haven’t penetrated yet.

Tip: If your Lederhosen is dusty from sitting on the ground, let it dry completely, then brush off the dust. You can also use a leather brush to rid of the slimy stains.

However, if your Lederhosen is light-toned, you need a bit more care for those. If you want nothing to happen to your Lederhosen, take them to the professional cleaners – those specializing in leather. A pricey option, but the guarantee you get is worth the buck.

Can you wash Lederhosen at home?

There are two ways to go about this; some experts say it is doable by using special detergents and conditioners – in a standard washing machine. There are indeed some specialized detergents made for Lederhosen. But we at Lederhosen Store advise maximum caution – for obvious reasons, and as the Lederhosen is worn extensively – it acquires a beautiful veneer. Not washing them will help maintain their unique appeal.

Lederhosen Store’s – Tips about Lederhosen: Air out your Lederhosen after each use (do not expose Lederhosen to the sun for extended periods). We recommend airing them out in a well-ventilated room – and store them in a dry space. All you need to do then is to put some leather spray and get them cleaned professionally from time to time.
