(pantalones) vaqueros Explanation: This is what appears in the Oxford Superlex dictionary: denim / "den@m / n 1 [u] (Tex) tela f vaquera or de jeans, mezclilla f (Chi, Méx); (before n) ‹ jacket / skirt › vaquero, tejano (Esp), de mezclilla (Chi, Méx) 2 denims pl (colloq) a (jeans) vaqueros mpl, jeans mpl, tejanos mpl (Esp), pantalón m de mezclilla (Chi, Méx) b (overalls) (AmE) pantalón m de peto, mono m, overol m (AmL) In Spain we would say "llevamos vaqueros" (though in some other parts of the country we would say, or "llevamos tejanos"). I attach a couple of links.

Pantalones vaqueros (o pantalones tejanos) Explanation: Denim se refiere al tipo de tejido de algodón. No es necesario traducirlo pues sería redundante. La ropa vaquera es siempre de ese tejido por definición. Suerte. |
