Abstract

An assembly and method for preventing a wearer's pants from contacting the floor during a stage of partial undress are provided. The assembly is formed of a strap of fabric, leather, plastic, elastic or other thin, flexible material. A cinching assembly is provided at opposing ends of the strap. The cinching assembly is used to securely wrap the strap about each of the wearer's pant legs at a position along the thigh or calf. By securing the strap about each pant leg, the pants are prevented from contacting the floor when the pants are unfastened and lowered.
