Default what pants?

I have a hard time keeping my pant legs down. What Jeans does everyone wear? I do have some Harley straps to hold them down, but riding to and from work (7 miles one way), and just short trips I don't always put them on. I wear Carhartt work pants. And on weekends etc I wear either Cinch or Twenty X. It is irritating to say the least. I find myself always reaching down to pull them back over my boots. Ready to try something else

I buy jeans at the western store. Cinch is a popular brand and they are longer because they'e designed for riding horses. Work great on iron horses too.
