Pants comprising an upper portion formed of a first material such as denim and a lower portion formed of a second material such as leather and connected to the upper portion along at least one seam. An inseam panel is sewn along at least one lengthwise edge of the pants spanning both the upper portion and the lower portion. At least one vent assembly may be installed in each lower portion of the pants, each vent assembly comprising a means for selectively closing the vent assembly, a cover panel formed so as to selectively cover the closure means, and an interior panel formed beneath the closure means and configured to allow air to pass therethrough upon opening of the closure means. A permanent or selectively removable lining may be installed within the lower portion of the pants, and protective armor may be installed on the pants.

What is claimed is: 1. A pants apparatus comprising: an upper portion formed of a first material, a lower portion formed of a second material, and an inseam panel sewn along at least one lengthwise edge of the pants apparatus spanning both the upper portion and the lower portion; the upper portion comprising an upper front panel and an upper rear panel sewn together to form a seat section; the lower portion comprising two lower front panels and two lower rear panels, each lower front panel being sewn to a respective lower rear panel so as to form one of two leg sections, each of the leg sections being sewn to the seat section along at least one seam substantially horizontal with a slight downward curve from the inseam panel toward a groin section of the pants apparatus and at least one vent assembly is installed in each lower portion, each vent assembly comprising a means for selectively closing the vent assembly formed integrally with the lower portion; a cover panel formed so as to selectively cover the closure means; and an interior panel formed beneath the closure means and configured with perforations to allow air to pass therethrough upon opening of the closure means. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the first material is denim; and the second material is leather. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the leather is selected from the group consisting of rawhide, suede, deerskin, elk skin, pigskin and sheepskin. 4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the upper front panel, the upper rear panel and the lower rear panels are constructed of denim; and the lower front panels are constructed of leather. 5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the closure means is a zipper. 6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the interior panel is formed of a perforated leather. 7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: each lower portion terminates in a cuff; and the vent assembly is spaced from the cuff. 8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein at least one vent assembly is installed substantially along the inseam panel. 9. The apparatus of claim 8 wherein the cover panel is formed with male snap portions configured to engage corresponding female snap portions formed along the inseam panel opposite the closure means, whereby the closure means is selectively and securably covered by the cover panel. 10. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein: studs are installed spaced along the inseam panel; the male snap portions are configured to substantially resemble the studs and are spaced along the cover panel substantially equal to the spacing of the studs; and the width of the inseam panel is substantially equal to the width of the cover panel, whereby the appearance of the pants apparatus along each lengthwise edge is substantially continuous. 11. The apparatus of claim 9 wherein the cover panel is installed over the closure means so as to selectively open from front to back, whereby the cover panel functions as an air foil to direct moving air into the vent assembly. 12. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: each lower portion terminates in a cuff; and the vent assembly substantially intersects the cuff. 13. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the cover panel is installed over the closure means so as to selectively open from front to back, whereby the cover panel functions as an air foil to direct moving air into the vent assembly. 14. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a lining installed substantially beneath the lower portion. 15. The apparatus of claim 14 wherein: the lining is formed about an upper end with at least two spaced-apart, selectively openable straps, a first end of each strap being attached to the upper end of the lining; a first engagement device is attached to the strap at the first end; an opposite second end of each strap is formed with a second engagement device configured to selectively engage the first engagement device; and at least two loops are sewn in spaced apart relationship along the seam between the upper portion and the lower portion, whereby each strap may be passed through the corresponding loop and the first and second engagement devices engaged to removably attach the lining to the pants apparatus and substantially suspend the lining within the lower portion. 16. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising protective armor installed substantially adjacent to the lower portion. 17. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the upper front panel and the upper rear panel are constructed of denim; and the lower front panels and the lower rear panels are constructed of leather. 18. A pants apparatus comprising: an upper portion formed of a first material a lower portion formed of a second material and connected to the upper portion along at least one seam; an inseam panel sewn along at least one lengthwise edge of the pants apparatus spanning both the upper portion and the lower portion; and a lining installed substantially beneath the lower portion, wherein: the lining is formed about an upper end with at least two spaced-apart, selectively openable straps, a first end of each strap being attached to the upper end of the lining; a first engagement device is attached to the strap at the first end; an opposite second end of each strap is formed with a second engagement device configured to selectively engage the first engagement device; and at least two loops are sewn in spaced apart relationship along the seam between the upper portion and the lower portion, whereby each strap may be passed through the corresponding loop and the first and second engagement devices engaged to removably attach the lining to the pants apparatus and substantially suspend the lining within the lower portion. 19. A pants apparatus comprising: an upper portion formed of a first material a lower portion formed of a second material and connected to the upper portion along at least one seam; an inseam panel sewn along at least one lengthwise edge of the pants apparatus spanning both the upper portion and the lower portion, wherein the width of the inseam panel is substantially equal to the width of the cover panel and studs are installed spaced along the inseam panel; and at least one vent assembly installed in each lower portion, with at least one vent assembly being installed substantially along the inseam panel, each vent assembly comprising: a means for selectively closing the vent assembly formed integrally with the lower portion; an interior panel formed beneath the closure means and configured with perforations to allow air to pass therethrough upon opening of the closure means; and a cover panel formed so as to selectively cover the closure means, wherein the cover panel is formed with male snap portions configured to substantially resemble the studs and spaced along the cover panel substantially equal to the spacing of the studs along the inseam panel, the male snap portions further configured to engage corresponding female snap portions formed along the inseam panel opposite the closure means, whereby the closure means is selectively and securably covered by the cover panel and the appearance of the pants apparatus along each lengthwise edge is substantially continuous.
