loose pants

Roomy leg coverings

Loose pants are trousers that fit generously rather than snugly, with extra room through the legs and often the waist.

The term describes a fit rather than a specific style—jeans, slacks, or athletic wear can all be loose pants.

The opposite of skinny or fitted pants: I prefer loose pants for comfort.
