I need your help. Years ago (the 80s or so) there were these things for sale that helped straight leg pants stay securely tucked in your boots. They were black elastic, about 6 inches long and they had a metal clamp on each end that hooked to the bottom of your pants. The elastic went under the foot like a stirrup. I forget what they were called, but it's the same principle as the corner holders for bedsheets (those don't work for this, I tried).
Has anyone seen them lately or know that they are called so I can do a search? Please help, when my jeans ride up inside my boots and it's driving me crazy. Thank you all!

I think I remember those. But I don't remember what they were called. If I remember correctly, the clips were like what is used for suspenders. Could you modify a pair of suspenders?
Suspanters
I think I found them:

-or-

Could you try making a pair for yourself? That's what I usually do, when I can't find something that I need. Sorry I can't be of more help!
They were called pants clips, and I don't believe they are sold anymore, In places that sell bedding, I have seen clips for holding sheets on the mattress, and I have seen and bought clips to hold the cover on the ironing board. Perhaps you may be able to find some of these.
Try a bike or motorcycle accessory shop, they may carry them. I know several bike riders that wear them.
No not the motorcycle shops. That's a different thing. I'm looking for the same thing. I used them when I was a kid too. You're in Pittsburgh? check out: www.jeanstraps.com/
They were called SUSPANTERS (not sure if they're still made).
Hello yall. The item your referring to are called Sus-Panters vs suspenders. I found a box of them just YESTERDAY at a yard sale.
They were called suspanters & I can't find them either. I know what ur talking about with the sheet securers. I may use those with suspended ends & make my own.
Yes they were called suspanters
