The fabric stretches a bit during the day, and since your belly is convex, and was holding your pants up (not your hip/ or hip curves), the pants have nothing to hold on to and they slide...
I have low-waist pants that can't slide off because of my hipbones. And I have high-waist pants that hit my natural waist that can't slide off because the hip curve.
I never buy pants that hit mid-waist, because that's where my belly sticks out and it's both unflattering and uncomfortable.

It's the gut.

Belt placement is key. Do you belt UNDER your belly? The belt is supposed to be at your waist.

Pants are newish, I am oldish.

My pants fall down when my hips and behind have gotten bigger.

I am. Not a giant gut but I have definitely grown a pot belly over the last decade, accelerated by the pandemic.

So many pants now are made with cheap fabric that bags and sags with wear.
Put on pants in the morning and they fit fine, but by noon, they’re a saggy mess. Pants that have stretch fabric are the worst. That’s why I prefer 100% cotton or wool.

When I was younger I put on my pants, fastened my belt and I was good to go all day without giving them a second thought. Now that I am in my fifties it seems my pants are always sagging down, as if gravity has increased or something.
Is this due to my changing body shape associated with middle aged weight gain? How come my hips don’t do the holding up work they used to?
I’m starting to understand the appeal of suspenders among seniors.
