Abstract: A pair of beltless trousers or slacks with a novel means of support, which permit the trousers or slacks to present a distinct and attractive appearance. A pair of trousers in accordance with the present invention relies upon neither belts, elastic or foam elastomer bands nor suspenders for support. Instead, the inner flap of the fly of the trousers or slacks is formed into a large, wide inner tab, tapering from a longer vertical side to a shorter vertical side. The shorter vertical side is detachably connected to the stiffening elements and the curtain liner on the inner wall of the left pocket, that is, the side of the waistband corresponding to the outer flap of the fly. This construction permits utilization of pockets which are connected solely to the curtain liner and stiffening elements, and which open to the top.
