give-up pants

"give-up pants" is when you work under a skilled trade, labor position, construction, landscaping, etc, wearing pants that are not suitable or appropriate for the job site. For example, basketball shorts, warmup pants, pants that are too loose(pants requiring a belt, which a belt is not present) or saggy pants, that constantly require you to stop work in order to readjust your clothing.

Hey guys, Jake is wearing his give-up pants again. Jake! Now go weed wacky that ditch!
