Uhm, no, that never happened to me. Neither has the tearing at the butt section for guys around me who wear them, everyone I know wears them pretty low (busta rhyme!). It only happens to the kids who wear them 5 sizes to tight, and have them low ride. or if they don't have enough spandex in them. hasn't happened to me really. although my new pants make my knees hurt sorta.
