Abstract: Fire protective trousers include an outer shell and a removable liner, the outer shell having right and left front panels which extend around and behind the center sides of the outer shell and connect with respective right and left rear panels along outseams at the rear of the outer shell, thus providing more material in the front of the outer shell and reducing rubbing contact with the body of the wearer. The respective inseams curve to the rear and down to the lower edges of the rear panels. The right and left front panels also include respective upper and lower pleats that extend from the outseams toward the inseams and from the inseams toward the outseams thereof to provide extra material in the knee areas of the leg portions. The rear panels have concave lower edges to reduce dragging on the ground and the possibility of being stepped on by the wearer.
