Debagging is a term used especially historically at the University of Oxford and Cambridge in England for the removal of someone's trousers against their wishes, typically as a practical joke. It was typically done among undergraduate students by athletic "hearties" to less athletic "aesthetes". For example, in Evelyn Waugh's novel Brideshead Revisited, Anthony Blanche was debagged by hearties.

The term derives from "Oxford bags", a loose-fitting baggy form of trousers.
