legroom
Seat-front distance
Legroom is the space available for one's legs while seated.
It's a practical concern in cars, airplanes, and theaters: The budget airline offers minimal legroom.
Legroom can also describe freedom to maneuver or flexibility in negotiations: The contract gives us some legroom on the deadline.
