Is traditional fit loose / baggy?

Just ripped the backside seam on a pair of carhartt's for the 2nd time; already had them repaired once. Also happened to the pair of chinos I had before these. Conveniently, just as arrived at work.

Problem is too tight around thighs = ripping times when bending over. Oooh err etc.

Maybe traditional fit is what I need?

Wider waist = larger thigh and then have waist taken in?

I do that with suit trousers, with jeans and chinos I go for a slightly bigger waist that will be ok with a belt. I thought that was going to work with the Carhartt's but seemingly not.

So may have to go that way, yeah.
