relaxed fit

Not snugly cut

Relaxed fit describes clothing cut looser than standard sizing, allowing more room through the body, hips, or legs.

The term appears most often with jeans and trousers: relaxed fit jeans, relaxed fit chinos.

It suggests comfort over sleekness, sitting between slim fit and baggy.
