Morphology

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

The fabric sense is named after the garment ('treg' from clipped 'treggings'); the linkage to trousers+leggings is inferable for speakers familiar with those terms but is specialized jargon.

Etymology

Treg also came to mean the soft, stretch fabric used to make those pants, which is a common shift when a clothing name becomes the name of its cloth. So when something is made of treg, it feels soft and moves with you.
