What Lederhosen Colors to Wear for Oktoberfest 2022
Jan
It’s hard to imagine that the first Lederhosen ever invented were work garments for the peasants of Bavaria. They were after all made of low quality leather that allowed the men to wear them during the day and provided flexibility to perform the daily chores. It was not until the Rococo period that the royals and noblemen of Bavaria started to wear Lederhosen made from finer quality of leather. They emulated the lifestyle of the common peasants by wearing Lederhosen however they embossed their own Lederhosen with beautiful embroidery.
Over two centuries later, the tradition of wearing beautifully made Lederhosen with beautiful embroidery etched in the fabric lives on. Yet it is the color of the Lederhosen that has remained truly constant throughout their historic life. Even in the time of King Ludwig I, only certain colors were suitable for Lederhosen and that still remains the case today.
With Oktoberfest 2022 just a few days away, it’s good idea to revisit the trends of Lederhosen color that have been prevalent throughout their history and the colors that are going to be trending at the historic event itself. In essence, there are truly just four shades of Lederhosen that are worn throughout the world. Let’s take a look at what they are and how they are going to be worn at this year’s Oktoberfest.
OKTOBERFEST LEDERHOSEN OUTFITS
Tan
You will find tanned color German Lederhosen everywhere at this year’s Oktoberfest because of their glamorous look. Tanned Lederhosen have always been a sign of affluence and sobriety among the locals of Bavaria and Munich.

Brown
By far the most common and wide ranging color among Lederhosen is the brown color. In fact, brown color is most closely associated with authentic Lederhosen since the first Lederhosen worn by the Bavarians were also brown. You will also find brown shades of Lederhosen when you search for Lederhosen online. Online stores like the Lederhosen Store have an endless variety in the brown shade of Lederhosen. From ash wood brown, shaded wild brown and deep greenish brown to rusty tobacco, classic brown and dark camel brown, you will find a dizzying array of brown shades in Lederhosen.
This is also because the most authentic of Lederhosen are made from genuine leather that comes directly from the skin of deer, cow and goats. Since the skin color of these animals is usually brown so that translates to the Lederhosen color as well.
Gray
Gray shaded Lederhosen are going to be big at Oktoberfest 2022 because of their rugged and rustic look. Traditional shades of classic gray as well as more modern shades such as slatted gray are available at the Lederhosen Store which cloaks the wearer in an elegant aura. The gray Lederhosen can also be tracked back to the locals of Bavaria in the 18th century since they did not have access to refined leather, so they often wore black or gray Lederhosen.
Black
