elephant legs
Massive gray supports
Elephant legs describes legs that are thick, heavy, or column-like, resembling an elephant's.
The term appears in furniture design for sturdy turned legs and in fashion criticism for unflattering wide-leg pants.
Medically, it sometimes describes the swelling of lymphedema.
As casual description, it's usually unflattering: Those jeans give me elephant legs.
