Description
The Plankenstein is where our goatskin range begins: smoked brown goatskin, cream hand-guided embroidery and real horn buttons. Goatskin is lighter and more supple than cow suede, so it feels comfortable almost from the first wear. A refined step up for regular festival-goers.
What makes the Plankenstein
Hand-guided embroidery is stitched by an operator steering the machine, so the lines have a slightly organic, hand-drawn quality you do not get from automated patterns. On smoked brown goatskin the cream thread looks warm and refined. Real horn buttons are a premium detail, each one slightly different. If you wear lederhosen every year and want something that feels better, the Plankenstein is a smart upgrade from suede.

Up close, the Plankenstein shows cream hand-guided floral embroidery stitched across the smoked brown goatskin, plus real horn buttons. The Plankenstein keeps the old knife pocket on the right leg; today it holds your festival tokens. Its suspenders are button-on, so the Plankenstein also wears with a belt.
Plankenstein size and fit
Cut-wise, the Plankenstein offers a traditional straight leg and a 4-inch inseam, finishing a hand above the knee. Measure round your waist where your jeans sit and pick a Plankenstein size from W28 to W44. Between two waists? Go with the snugger size: goatskin stretches about half an inch, and the Plankenstein suspenders adjust the height.
Outfit ideas for the Plankenstein
In our shoot we paired the smoked brown Plankenstein with a white linen Trachten shirt, cream wool knee socks and brown haferl shoes. Prefer something simpler? Go for a cream linen shirt so all eyes go to the hand-guided floral embroidery. Off-season the Plankenstein looks good with a polo and loafers.
Caring for smoked brown goatskin
Refresh the smoked brown goatskin of the Plankenstein with a lightly damp cloth, then let it dry slowly out of the sun. Before each season, a light leather cream keeps the Plankenstein from drying out; no washing machine. The TrachtHouse lederhosen care guide covers smoked brown goatskin step by step.

Questions about this product
What waist size should I order in the Plankenstein?
Use your normal trouser waist; the smoked brown Plankenstein is cut in W28 to W44. Caught in between? Go one down, as the Plankenstein eases with wear.
Can I wear the Plankenstein without suspenders?
Yes. The straps on the Plankenstein button off, so you can wear a leather belt for summer barbecues.
Why pick goatskin for the Plankenstein?
Goatskin is thinner and softer than cow suede, so the smoked brown Plankenstein breaks in within days.
