I don't own (or wear) anything other than jeans, so I've never had the problem, but they do make pant stirrups that might solve your problem.
Here is an example;

I don't understand why anyone worries about things like this? But that's just me..[&:] My pants used to ride up when I had the crash bar and highway pegs on my bike. Didn't care at all...But since you do, those stirrups look like a cheap fix for it. Those other 'half-chap' things look pretty cool, as well.

RE: Pants riding up
Guys it's pretty simple.......A good rule of thumb is to buy your jeans for riding 1-2 inches ( prefferably 2 inches)longer on the inseam than what you normaly wear when not ridding. This will accomadate the boots youwear and the retraction when you have your leg bent. Also when you stretch out on your highway pegs for those of you who have them they are long enough and go down over the boot far enough where you dont get that annoying pant leg flapping!

RE: Pants riding up
Bottom line, wind beats the pi$$ out of you for extended periods.Superslab riding sucks, and is boring. I bought a nylon HD racing jacket, and it just plain sucks on the highway, or anything over 45 mph. It flaps, and blows up like a beach ball in the wind. Same thing with lighter pants. I don't have any problems with jeans they stay put, but my thin Dickies work pants will ride right up my leg, and flap the **** out of my legs till they go numb. Now I just try to ride in heavy jeans, and a leather only when I know i'm going for longer rides on the superslab
