I made a gaiter out of an old pair of sweat pants... the kind that have the elastic around the ankle...
I cut off one of the legs and I put that over my right pant leg and tie the top around the top of my calf...
problem solved!
I never had any luck putting the bottom of my pants into my socks or tying the lower part of my pants...
