long trousers
Ankle-reaching leg garments
Long trousers are pants that extend to the ankles, as distinguished from shorts or cropped styles.
The term appears most often in British English and in contexts where the distinction matters—school uniform codes, dress requirements, or the milestone of a boy graduating from short trousers: He was finally old enough for long trousers.
