Too big waist

Got these snow pants but the waist is way to big but they look sick, if I wear a belt with them they srunch up and the front fly falls low. They're pretty old so I'd be down for any modifications, thanks!

I have a pair like that. Usually I do my belt up super tight and then pull up as much slack as I can from the front of the pants and just have the front of my pants way higher than the rest. Looks dumb with out a jacket but works pretty well with something baggy on top. Definitely have to pull the front of the pants up every couple of runs though

i just sew two new belt loops on at the fly and then fold the extra material at the hips. you can also sew those folds if the pants are not super thick

How do I wear the suspenders properly, when I wear them they leave big open areas and droops down low in the back
