Best way to keep ankles/pants tucked into boot?

[joe]

I have an issue where my pants always come out of my boots and make the ankle spats look weird.

I put some adhesive velcro inside the boot in the front and back, and then sewed on some velcro on the front and back of my pants to fit into that.

It sort of works, but then the sides get all the slack and it still sort of comes out and makes my pants look weird again.

Does anyone have a system they use with a lot of success? I'm thinking maybe sewing elastic bands that go under my feet to hold it in, or maybe attaching a cuff velcro similar to ESB's flight suit on my ROTJ one?

the elastic bands to hold your pant leg down would be best....

I have heard of people using press studs on the inside of their pant leg . I had elastic straps attached to either side above the ankle which went under the foot in the boot like a styrup. Tbh if your pant leg is long enough you shouldn't really have a problem

i have elastic stirrups sewn into the cuff of the pants, like 80's style.
