  • Figures 2a and 2b are respectively a front and back views of trousers according to a second embodiment of the invention.
  • Figure 2c is a view of the trousers in Figures 2a and 2b in the disassembled state
  • Figures 3a and 3b are respectively a front and back views of the trousers according to a third embodiment of the invention.
  • Figure 3c is a view of the trousers in Figures 3a and 3b in the disassembled state.
  • Trousers 1 are adapted to be worn both by female and male wearers, because, as it will be explained, its features make it particularly advantageous for both.
