Men’s German Bavarian Oktoberfest Costume Set for Halloween Dress Up Party and Beer Festival (Medium)

So I went to Octoberfest in Munich a few weeks ago and spent quite a while researching the best costume to wear so that I didn’t look like a stag party and also wasn’t seen to be taking the mick out of the local Bavarian dress code.Firstly, if you are going to the actual Octoberfest in Munich then very very few people wear hats so although a nice touch and it does look original, it didn’t quite fit my average man head, so I didn’t wear it after day one at the site. If everyone was wearing hats though I would have persevered.Secondly the top is quite large and long, this is ideal as you can tuck in the excess length and the looseness of the fit means it’s not restrictive and helps with movement when raising your stein and dancing etc.The lederhosen are really really good and look the most like the original Bavarian ones I could find. The elastic waist will fit any size and the straps over he shoulder can be adjusted as well. The buckles are strong enough to make multiple adjustments without damage.The socks are more like Lycra tights and would best be used by people on long distance flights to avoid DVT. They are so tight they reduce blood circulation to the feet. I threw them away and purchased a cheap pair of football socks.To summarise, I was at Munich main station and an old boy came up and complemented my look and appreciated I’d made an effort, then proceeded to tell me his lederhosen cost 900 euros.If I go back I’d make the effort and buy a proper pair of leather ones.It rained whilst I was there and I got soaked and neither the hat nor the rest of the costume we’re damaged by the rain.Hope this helps.

Great costume apart from the leg lacing, this was a bit pathetic but was easily fixed by replacing the piddly thin shoe string that came with the costume with a couple of lengths of leather boot lace. This turned a 5 star costume into atleast a 7 ;)

Looks really cheap and not easy to adjust.I regret to not have spent a bit more for a decent product

Ordered for my boyfriend it fit perfectly and quality was good!

Brilliant for a party!! Defiantly looked the perfect very well made worth the money

Great for October fest

Shirt not the best fit in the world but overall great costume

Excellent
