Tapered pants are pants that have a leg that narrows dramatically from the knee to the leg opening. There are two meanings when it comes to "tapered" as related to pants and other garments designed to wear over the legs:

• Related to alterations or tailoring: The term "tapered pants" refers to garment bottoms worn over the legs that have been altered to narrow the shape of the legs.
• Related to the design or style of a garment: Its a pant with a leg that narrows dramatically from the knee to the leg opening.

Tapered pants should not be confused with slim-fit or other pants with legs that gradually decrease in size from the knee to the leg opening. Tapered pants are designed to create a modern, streamlined appearance that pairs well with any outfit and looks flattering on almost any body type. They provide several benefits over other styles, including versatility, comfort, and always being in fashion. Tapered pants are recommended for men with larger hips and thighs or men who like a slightly fitted look but have a waist size greater than 40 inches. They flatter individuals seeking a comfortable fit around hips and thighs while maintaining a stylish look.
