straight leg

Knee fully extended

Straight leg describes pants or jeans cut with legs that run straight from hip to hem without tapering or flaring: classic straight leg jeans, a straight leg fit.

The style falls between slim-fit and relaxed cuts.

In exercise, a straight leg raise or straight leg deadlift keeps the knee unbent throughout the movement.
