neutral  Hazel Whiteley: No estoy segura. He mirado en esa página de El País y parece que ´cagones´quiere decir ´baggy´, no necesariamente ´baggy´en la parte posterior.

una idea


Explanation:
Creo que son pantalones de estos de rapero que tienen en la parte del trasero cuelgan mucho. Esta definicion sale en www.wordreference.com cuando buscas el verbo "plunge".

5. (intr.) to descend very suddenly or steeply: the ship plunged in heavy seas; a plunging neckline.

Tal vez puedes traducirlo como "pantalones tipo bombacho". Pero no lo tengo muy claro. Suerte!

Explanation:
rear cleavage.

Well, you often hear of a plunging neckline, so I suppose you could have a plunging, er, arseline??
