daggy
Awkwardly out of style
Daggy is Australian and New Zealand slang for unfashionable, dorky, or uncool.
It comes from dags—the clumps of wool matted with dung around a sheep's rear.
Something daggy lacks style or polish: Those pants are a bit daggy.
The word can be affectionate rather than cutting—a daggy person might be charmingly awkward or endearingly uncool: I love her daggy sense of humor.
