Sometimes when wearing pants that are a size or two too large in the waist, a belt which is a necessary accompaniment, folds over the material usually near the fly, when tightened.
This same effect can be had without the belt, but instead with a Pant Cinch. This simple device is designed to look
like a belt buckle, but simply clips over the folded material reducing the overall circumference of the pants.
This is a rather heavy-duty clip that can withstand the innumerable forces that threaten to pull down one's pants throughout the day.

[+] bun for wishing I had this problem!! |
|
| |
Sounds like you got a lot of forces trying to pull your
pants down. Maybe you should work on eliminating
*them* first. Me thinks. |
|
| |
You could use the same idea for trousers, as well! |
|
| |
No gravity, no plumbers crack.
Simples. |
|
| |
You could use a safety pin, but chances are it would look like a safety pin. |

Ccan I point out that
a jumbo tie-wrap, looped through two adjacent belt-loops
and pulled tight, performs this function admirably? |
|
| |
Incidentally, initial testing has shown that the adjacent belt-
loops should not be those on either side of the zip. |
|
| |
No, but I have an enviable collection of belt-loops. |
|
| |
Enviable by who, exactly ? |
|
| |
By the gullible fool to whom I sold all my trousers, mainly. |
|
| |
I'm still renting the pockets on these ones. |
|
| |
Many red-blooded guys would kill for innumerable forces trying to pull their
pants down. |

[+] I can see the product being marketed towards parents of children with clothes that they'll "grow into" and the like: clips shaped like daisies, rocketships or a faux-cellphone or something. |
|
| |
Maybe grown-ups could be conned into buying a pair for themselves in case their waistline decides to recede (which doesn't happen but that's hardly the marketing department's fault). |
|
| |
I think the problem here was brought up earlier |
|
| |
//The appearance of a beltless buckle would be rather
tacky, I would think.// |
|
| |
Buuuut... I think if it were marketed right, it'd still work. |
|
| |
How about subdermally implanted pop-fasteners? |
