 For some reason this year when I ride, my left pant leg works it's way up to the top of my boot! Just the left goes that high, but the right creeps a little too.  By the time I'm done loping circles my leg is showing, lol Why?  It's the weirdest thing.

New saddle with rough out fenders will do that to me. Once the fenders get a bit smoother after use then the riding up pants stop..

Old saddle, not gripping with my knees because I used to be a hunter/jumper and I'm a lower leg kinda gal.  It's something totally new going on.  Oh, and it happens mostly with the colt.

Maybe your colt is thicker barreled then your other horse so your legs maybe sticking out a bit farther and your fenders could be more pressed up against your legs and you could be useing your legs more, I dont even know if that made any sense , but I tryed, lol..

This happens to me if I have on loose pants. If the are tighter they don't go anywhere. But if they are loose like in the winter I wear sweat pants over my jeans, then that happens really bad.

If your legs are moving a lot while you're loping the circles that will cause it.

Wrap some electrical tape around the back of your pant leg and the heel of your boot.  Works great if you don't wear spurs.

When my back was having a ton of issues and my hips were also out of whack I had trouble with this same thing. I'd go in for an adjustment and my left leg would be significantly shorter than my right from it.

He has filled out alot this summer.  He was slab sided and I had trouble keeping my foot in the stirrup then and had to shorten them.  I do have back issues too, so maybe I'm outa wack, that kinda makes sense too.  And, he's not real smooth and collected yet either so his gate might be the issue with my legs moving more.

All these make sense!  I think the best answer might be to tape my jeans like a bull rider, lol
