galligaskins
noun
- Large, loose breeches, fashionable in the 16th and 17th centuries. He was generally seen trooping like a colt at his mother's heels, equipped in a pair of his father's cast-off galligaskins, which he had much ado to hold up with one hand, as a fine lady does her train in bad weather.
