Fashion
This is a promotion of a new style for men the context is:
"La parte más informal de la colección está basada en el algodón, dando especial importancia a las fibras naturales.
Tinturas vegetales y prints de aspecto handmade nos recuerdan las técnicas artesanales.
El lavado de las prendas sugiere un aspecto ‘vivido’
Destacan entre este bloque los pantalones con patrones ‘Tapered’ (corte relajado hasta la rodilla y bajos más ajustados) y ‘Cropped’ (perfecto para los que prefieren los pantalones hasta el tobillo).
Entre los accesorios de este bloque destacan las bandoleras de lona, mochilas y gorras de uso más casual y de inspiración cool-rustic.
Surely this is not literally a "relaxed cut?"
Thanks for any help.

An option.
("Relaxed" sounds like a euphemism for old, comfy pìpe-and-slippers type fashion to me, whereas the text sample looks more aimed at a younger public).

"Relaxed fit" to me conjures up Homer Simpson and his famous blue pants...
