    It's not a major issue but it's driving me crazy. How do you keep your skinny jeans tucked into your ankle boots ?
    I have short legs so the cuff idea doesn't work for me. I've tried tucking them into my socks but that's not great. I bought these elastic stirrup yokes that you clip onto your jeans and wear under your foot but they are so uncomfortable. Suggestions please .....

    Same here! Always ends up scrunching up at the knees. Drives me mad.

    Wear some nice woolly socks or thick socks if you do not like woolly one,s or wear a few pairs of whatever socks you like. Dunnes have some lovely cute woolly socks. Then try the stirrup yokes on and maybe that will make them more comfortable.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    Cheers AMKC, it's the metal clips that make them uncomfortable, they dig into my ankles.

    Oh ye that would be uncomfortable. Maybe if you have an old jeans at home you could cut a bit off and put it on your leg and around your angle where the clip does be or even on the clip if you can. Just some idea,s

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I buy ankle grazer jeans so they don't bunch up on the ends and move up your leg throughout the day.

    Thanks Twee, might be worth shortening some of mine so.

    I do the Opposite! I buy jeans that are a bit too long so they go down my foot and under my heal! Seems to keep them in place nicely but only if I'm wearing proper socks rather than ankle socks
