Are there any brands you'd recommend?
So many mfrs of denim products have changed their styles, that it's hard to provide a positive recommendation. Levis used to be a great pair of jeans, Lee and Wrangler also fitted nice and tight. Best bet is to check out a jean store, not just the jean shelf at Walmart or some other general outlet.
Find the tightest pair you can possibly fit into, and that may involve trying on 4 or 5 types, maybe more. Inevitably, you might have to do what we did as teens - put the jeans on, get them soaking wet in the shower, and then walk around until they dry. The denim will shrink and mold itself to your body. The issue is that a tight waist and crotch might not be tight enough around the butt and thighs. Doing the wear-it-wet-until-it-dries routine helps shrink them everywhere you need. Guys in the rural Southern USA used to do this all the time, and the habit worked it way to other regions.
I can say this much, back in the day when I was a teenager (omfg so long ago!!
) after a good shrinking and wearing, a guy's butt was perfectly shaped and displayed, and you could tell if he was cir
cised or not right thru his jeans. Mutual erotic horseplay always ensued, and even if a guy wasn't specifically into spanking, his tight round ass in jeans was a natural target for a couple of whacks from buddies, just as a guy-2-guy thing. Of course back then, guys WANTED to show off their bodies, not hide them under those ugly sagging things they wear now.
