    I went to high school with a 'irishman' whose family included one of the local catholic priest (20k people, and 2 Catholic churches, go fig) The priest's brother owns a bar near the church, and the priest sells spaghetti sauce from the bar.

    It's generally known not to ever get in a drinking contest with this family, but on a trip to Frankenmuth, he bought (and later wore to school, many times) Lederhosen. He even put a lot of green clothes with it and dressed up as a leperchaun for St. Paddy's day. (gee, this almost better belongs in the 'kilted halloween' thread more than here)

    Some of the lederhosen look too long - more like breeches.

    Well they were all from Germany and not just Arizonans dressed up in Lederhosen. I personally don't know what' appropriate or not, but either way they were a great band and fun to listen to.

    Then they played the 'Chicken Dance' and we had great fun watching the people on the dance floor . Funny because it became totally packed and everyone knew what to do.

    Bavarians do wear lederhosen in a variety of lengths. Sort of a 5 yard / 8 yard option in leather trouser equivalent I suppose. Longer being preferred, generally.

    The leather 'hot-pants' image is not so popular anymore. They do still insist on wearing high-cut speedo's at the pool though which does frighten me.

    Smashin' pictures by the way. A great mix of culture!

    The knee-length breeches are actually called bundhosen. True lederhosen are the shorts.
