Rare Hitler picture

the gut feeling is that it's a fake, followed by a giggle at the fancy shorts

No, not a fake. See Adolf Hitler practising poses for his speeches - and relaxing in lederhosen

I thought so too, but there are other pictures showing the same thing.

Strange how we laugh at what we perceive to be funny clothes, when at the time we probably consider them the height of fashion. '70's flares, '80's big shoulder pads etc etc. I remember them all unfortunately!

OMG, the picture where he smiles for the camera is somewhat creepy

as for lederhosen, they're still big in Germany, I wore them and boy were they cool! Second only to kilts!

Well personally I find this current fashion much more rediculous than lederhosen or kilts:

allegedly there are two main reasons for the trousers down look:

1) inmates are not allowed belts, so their trousers hang down. So it's like saying "I'm gangsta cos Ive done time in jail"

2) keeping your trousers halfway down your bottom is apparently a sign in jail for saying "I'm up for some backdoor fun"

bender gangstas, go figure..
