Abstract
Abstract A pair of trousers for athletic, casual or outdoor wear. These trousers are resistant to wear, but also have the flexibility and perspiration absorbency which are desirable in an athletic garment. A front section and seat section which are made from denim or some other durable fabric are fixed below a waist band section to cover a wearer's lower torso. A pair of leg sections made from sweat shirt fleece or some other suitable flexible material extends downwardly from these frontal and seat sections. Preferably, these leg sections will also be upwardly and frontally reinforced over the wearer's thigh with denim or some other durable material.
