Why do my pants fall down as I get older?
Your pants can fall down and need to be tugged at for many reasons. It could be the size of the pants being too small or too large, a big belly pushing them down, or it might be slim hips giving the pants little to hold on to. In any case, you need to get creative to keep your pants in place.
The most common reason your pants won't stay up is related to your body shape and how your pants fit your particular body type. If you have a larger waist (big belly) and smaller hips & butt, it's much easier for your pants to fall down.
