I think they are talking about jeans.  I've never heard tapered.  We
say straight leg or boot cut for "tapered".  I don't know how old you
are, but in the 60s we used to call those "bell bottoms".

Now that I think of it, you are right about the \ / configuration.
They couldn't be bell bottoms if they are tapered.  I still believe
they are talking about pants, though.  Why was I thinking bell bottoms?

can you please spell "boot cut" out to me?
thanks

 what does that mean?
Jeans with a tapered leg opening won't fit over your boots, but those
with a straight leg opening will fit.

Yes, I wouldn't call boot cut jeans tapered but rather flared.
