Trouser and jeans brands to avoid a floppy butt

Since I've been looking more closely at fits, I've noticed that all my rtw pants and jeans have the same fit problem: wrinkles under the butt aka the floppy butt. Dieworkwear describes this problem here: https://dieworkwear.com/2019/10/11/you-might-suffer-from-floppy-butt/.

While MTM or bespoke would be the best solution, they aren't always affordable.

Because I'm not the only one who has this problem, I thought of making a list of brands and models that fit people who have the same problem. Of course this doesn't guarantee that the pants or jeans will fit others. But the list could at least be something of a guide for testing.

What do you think? Do you have any suggestions?

I'm not sure a general list is useful, since everyone is very anatomically different. I think the two major choices, if you have such an issue, is to either see a tailor or start training glutes.

This is a tough thing to get right on an OTR pair of trousers without alterations that may or may not be doable (depending on the amount of material).

On the bright side, I find that larger-seated trousers are more comfortable to sit in at my desk all day.
