Saggy describes the style of jeans.
The roof is sagging under the weight of the snow.
The roof sagged under the weight of the snow.
I call this a sagging roof.

If you google sagged jeans or saggy jeans in pictures you �ll find the same type of jeans
. The picture on the right was called sagging pants and the one on the left was found under the title sagged jeans

Baggy jeans don�t sag therefore baggy is not the same as saggy (generally speaking)
Baggy means just big - maybe through fashion or maybe because of being to big (I �ve lost weight and my jeans are too baggy now)
Saggy is a fashion and Wikipedia explains it nicely. Wikpedia also has a nice explanation of the fashion of baggy jeans in the nineties.
However, a quick google shows that there is indeed such a thing as saggy baggy jeans but generally the two words are not used together in the context of jeans. |
