slouchy

Limply hanging down

Slouchy describes a loose, relaxed, or drooping quality.

A slouchy posture involves rounded shoulders and a curved spine.

Slouchy clothing fits loosely and hangs without structure: a slouchy sweater, slouchy boots.

The word can suggest comfortable casualness or unflattering sloppiness, depending on context.
