Plundra or Sharavona ( German: Pluderhosen or pludern - protruding, convex; hosen - trousers) - short, baggy men's trousers made of fabric or velvet, with vertical slits showing the lining, so they were also called stuffed pants.

Plundra are among the most extravagant phenomena in the history of clothing. The stranger they looked, the easier it was to cut them. They differed from the previous trousers in size, cut much wider than the leg, and gathered around the body in dense assemblies.

The plundra expanded to the middle of the thigh or knee. They were part of a palace or military outfit worn in Europe from the second half of the 16th century, and in Poland in the 17th and 18th centuries they were called Pludras .

Any pants above the knee. Sweatpants. The length and width of this type of trousers, reminiscent of historical plundra, often changed. Now cut is considered correct if they descend below the patella to the width of the palm.
