German soccer team 1860 Munich will don these Oktoberfest-inspired lederhosen kits for an upcoming game against Ingolstadt on the first day of the annual festival.

• Lolo Jones did not fare well on Dancing With The Stars

The second division squad opted for traditional uniform materials for the shorts instead of the traditional leather because they are not insane people. It would have been a lot of fun to watch a team try and play in full lederhosen though.

Ugliest Uniforms in Sports History

Notre Dame Fighting Irish

Notre Dame broke out its new basketball uniforms at the 2013 Big East tournament, creating a wave of criticism. The outfits earned an instant place on SI.com's list of ugliest uniforms in sports history. Here are the rest of our choices. Which teams would be on your ugliest uniforms list. Send entries to siwriters@simail.com

Maryland Terrapins

Maryland defeated Miami 32-24, but the game was secondary to the debut of Maryland's new uniforms in 2011. The Terrapins wore white uniforms patterned after the state flag and helmets splashed with red and white on one side and black and yellow on the other.

Pittsburgh Pirates

The Pirates advertised these duds as a "uniform of the future" when they wore these during a 1999 game against the Mets.

Jorge Campos

Whatever the Mexican goalkeeper had in soccer ability, he lacked in fashion sense.

Chicago White Sox

White Sox outfielder Ralph Garr models the shorts worn by the team for three games during the 1976 season.

Toronto Raptors

Marcus Camby shows off the Raptors' imposing dinosaur while spinning a basketball on his finger during the Raptors' 1997 training camp.

1994 U.S. World Cup

The U.S. made it to the Round of 16 at the 1994 World Cup, but any pride the team may have felt was quickly erased with these uniforms.

Vancouver Canucks

The Canucks made uniform history with these duds, which featured no logo and a "V" starting at the collar.

Trenton Thunder

The Trenton Thunder were so excited to have Derek Jeter join the team as part of a rehab assignment, they designed these duds so he'd never forget his time there (as well as pay tribute to America).

Houston Astros

Joe Morgan wishes he was back in the Reds' "Big Red Machine" uniform rather than where this orange-tinted Astros dud.

Denver Broncos

In 2009, the Broncos rolled out their original, orange-and-brown uniforms as part of the NFL's celebration of the 50th anniversary of the AFL.

Cleveland Indians

A pre-mustached Dennis Eckersley shows off the bright red Indians uniforms of the late '70s.

Mighty Ducks of Anaheim

The Disney-owned Ducks never shied away from promoting a particular movie franchise. In 1995-96, the uniform designers must've thought the studio was releasing a a mash-up between Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Slap Shot . Thankfully, these were shelved after just one season.

Colorado Rockies

Larry Walker shows off these "futuristic" Rockies uniform, which the team wore for one game during the 1999 season.

Seattle Seahawks

The Seahawks opened eyes in 2009 when they debuted a lime-green jersey. They lasted one game and were dropped by then-coach Jim Mora Jr. because "we didn't win in them."

New York Islanders

It's been a rough 15 years for Islanders fans, and this fisherman-themed third jersey didn't help matters

San Diego Padres

Dave Winfield probably couldn't wait to don Yankee pinstripes over these duds.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Bucs' creamsicle jerseys and logo nicknamed Bucco Bruce may have been anything but intimidating, but at least that didn't stop Lee Roy Selmon (63).

Los Angeles Kings

Even Wayne Gretzky couldn't look good in the Kings' short lived "Burger King" third jersey from the 1995-96 season.

New Orleans Hornets

These Mardi Gras-inspired uniforms might have been too flashy for the NBA.

Montreal Canadiens

During a 2009 game against Boston, Montreal wore "barber pole" retro jerseys featuring the distinctive look of narrow red, white and blue horizontal bands used by the team in 1912-13.

Pittsburgh Steelers

In honor of the franchise's 80th season, the Steelers brought back these throwback uniforms.

Jose Canseco

Jose Canseco isn't the worst memory of the Rays' early days. It was their uniforms.

Washington Wizards

The Wizards, who many fans consider to have at one time had the best uniforms in NBA history, were at the opposite side of the spectrum with this gold and black alternate jersey worn from 2006 to 2009.
