The 9-seam — Gössl Edition with nine proud decorative seams

Published in the Gwandhaus Journal, issue 34, spring 2022. The 9-seam.

The 9-seam

Connoisseurs know: not all Lederhosen are the same.

Three, five, seven — or nine

THEY COME with three, five and seven seams; the more richly and splendidly a Lederhose is embroidered, the higher its quality is to be rated.

GÖSSL TAKES UP this tradition and places ahead of its peers an Edition model that, counting the side seam, carries nine proud decorative seams.

Relief embroidery — elevated beauty

EACH OF THE embroidered elements was also worked as relief embroidery — so that the beauty of the motifs, elevated in the truest sense of the word, comes into its own even better.

THE SIDE SEAM was traditionally worked open-edged, showing off the light edges of the leather.
