Well, Bel - the sad-sack rip-offs made for Oktoberfests far and wide usually are just shorts with stylized suspenders (I can be critical, I've made 'em myself!), but the real thing are made of a grade of leather (hence, leder) heavy enough that they'll pretty much stand up on their own. And once they're broken in, they smell as though they could do the Chicken Dance of their own volition. They smell so FOWL! TEd, you're a horrible influence.

Ugh, I can see how the guys'd be getting warm in all the wrong places then.

"One of the most often asked questions is how to take care of a Lederhosen? Before we answer this question, we would like to give you some advise: A good and true recommendation of Bavarians is 'never clean a Lederhosen'! Traces of wear are part of the individual look of traditional leather pants."

My experience was that so long as an alien had a nose he would have had no trouble finding the people wearing them. No need for the line, "Take me to your lederhosen." Peggy just said, "Ted, just culotte."
