Morphology

treg = treggings (semi-transparent) = trouser + legging

Formally built as a clipped form of 'treggings' (itself a blend of 'trousers' + 'leggings'), so learners who know those source words may infer the idea but the clipped form is informal and not fully transparent.

Etymology

Treg is a modern blend of trouser and jogger, a helpful way to remember that it means 'loose, comfortable pants' for casual wear. So treg names a relaxed style of trousers you wear at home or out with friends.
