Learn English – What do you call this problem in the knee area of the jeans

idiom-requestsphrase-requestssingle-word-requests

What do you call this problem when your pants, especially jeans, look like sticking out in the front and look as if there is a pillow on their knee part? (As if it has taken the shape of the knee.)

I don't mean "to be worn out", "to get folded or creased", or "to get faded". Unfortunately, I don't know how else to describe it, I mean exactly the way it is shown in the following picture (by arrow).

For example:

"I don't like it when my jeans ____(at the knees)."

I would suggest "bunch up". When clothes are said to be bunched up, it means that the material is folded up, usually in an uncomfortable or unsightly way, instead of lying flat.

Here is an example of an image search result for "bunched up jeans":
