The true spirit of Oktoberfest lies in its history and the Bavarian tradition from which it takes its roots.

It represents a significant part of the Bavarian history dating back to the 18th century.

Wear Traditional Colored Lederhosen
The one thing you must remember about German Lederhosen is that every aspect of the dressing has a symbolic meaning and a history behind it. That is why the best way to wear Lederhosen is with natural and traditional colors. Since the best quality Lederhosen are made with genuine leather from cowhide or deerskin so they have a natural color of brown and tan to them. These are also the most common colors for Lederhosen among the Bavarian locals and what you will expect to see at Oktoberfest 2022.
Length of the Lederhosen
The traditional German Lederhosen is always shorter than the knee. This is the Trachten style of Bavaria and it dates back to the 18th century. The longer version of the Lederhosen which reaches to the knee and below is known as the Bundhosen. Although both Lederhosen and Bundhosen are perfectly acceptable to wear to Oktoberfest, it comes down to your own personal taste and how you feel about wearing them.
Put on a Bavarian Shirt under the Lederhosen
Every Lederhosen is incomplete without the Bavarian shirt that goes along with them. The Bavarian shirts are usually long sleeved button downs that come in a variety of colors to add a little more style to the Lederhosen. Even though the most traditionally worn Bavarian shirt is white in color and has no patter on it, yet in recent times checkered Bavarian shirts in red and blue have also gained popularity.
