Get some biker stirrups. Clips to your pant cuff on one side, elastic loops under your boot arch and then clips to your pant cuff on the other side.

Just buy wrangler jeans, made in America, and get them 2" longer than your normal inseam. You will love em. And they never ride up. Oh, get the wrangler pro rodeo original jeans with the little brown rectangle on the right rear pocket. Most western supplier's have them, or WalMart has them out this way. Try Sheplers.com, I know they have them. Problem solved.

Longer boot cut jeans and taller boots. Bellbottoms just don't work.

+1 on the Wranglers. Great jeans, been wearing them all my life. Cinch are really good jeans as well, buy them a bit longer like you would with the wranglers.
