Didn't know bell bottoms and pimp hats were in during the third reich. level 2 Dr_Mottek 5 points · 2 years ago They're belonging to a craftsmen's guild (Zunft), e.g. masons, carpenters etc. (their uniform colour is white, so they ought to be masons or some other stone-related guild). These guilds still exist (on somewhat different legal standing, nowadays) and you can sometimes see craftsmen in their full uniform while they are on their journeyman's years. Depending on the uniform, you can tell to which guild they belong. It usually consists of a wide-brimmed hat (or a top-hat or bowler for some guilds) called Obermann, a white collarless shirt (Staude), trousers (oftentimes with bell-bottom), a vest with eight mother-of-pearl buttons (Kreuzspinne), Jacket with six buttons, the "Ehrbarkeit" (a tie), a walking cane (stenz), belt and a pocket watch. It's (luckily) not a third Reich thing, but dates much further back. |
