Advice on issues with my Balmain Biker Jeans

I recently bought a pair of used Balmain Biker Jeans (S4HT500B406V) in size 29. They are made of 100% cotton, made in Italy and come with Lampo zippers.

My issue is that they are a little too tight in the thigh and crotch area, but also a little too loose in the waist. I'm not able to properly pull them up as they get stuck on my thighs so I end up having a lot of trouble walking at a faster pace or taking bigger steps as the crotch area is really low.

I don't know if sizing up or down would fix any of those issues. As the stretching on the 100% cotton ones is non existent, I was thinking that maybe I should buy a pair in the same size (29) made out of a mix of 98 % cotton and 2% polyurethane?

Let me know what you think.
