Is low front rise the cause of "junk outline"

Hi all, I was hoping someone could better explain what I should be looking for to get better fitting jeans. I don't have pics as I don't buy the jeans that have the problem, but it's basically described as you can see a full outline of my junk in the front. I've always worn pretty baggy jeans because of this. I went shopping over the weekend and tried on 5-6 pairs of jeans in various shops and had the same problem in each, any kind of straight/skinny fit jeans look like I've stuffed a sausage down the side of my leg. I usually wear boxer briefs, I tried with some tighty whiteys on and instead it look liked I'd stuffed a pair of socks down there. I'm not really a big guy, 5'11'' 160lbs, run and workout a few times a week. I'd really like to be able to buy jeans that are a closer fit on the leg, thigh, and butt, but still have some room in the front for my man bits. Is a longer front rise what I should be looking for to provide room in this area? Also, if this is what I'm looking for is there an online shop where jeans can be shorted/filtered by front rise? I took some glimpses at other guys in the store and I could tell that they weren't having a similar problem with the jean fit. I also mentioned it to one of the sales associates who said it was probably in my head, so I modeled a pair for her that she picked out, her reaction was "LOL. WOW! You're right, you can't wear those!"

P.S. I've heard it all before about "Lucky guy!", "I'd wear them if I had that problem...", "You're just trying to sound like you have a big...", etc., etc., but I'd seriously like some better fitting jeans. If I need custom made jeans to create the proportions needed then so be it.

Thanks!

Try jeans that have a mid-high rise. :D

The majority of skinny jeans, slim, straight are low rise. It's a fashion gone wrong feminizing men.

Try finding jeans with a mid-high rise.
