Toddler not wearing pants

So I've been potty training my son for a month now, he goes onto his potty no problem what so ever he's only had a handful of accidents, but I can't establish pants with him so when we're in the house he's just in a top and nothing below which I really just want him to wear pants, everytime I try to put them on he's constantly touching himself and he pulls on them, he has managed to take them down once to take a wee but other times he's weed in them by an accident and even pooped. So when we go out he wears a nappy still. I just don't know how to move onto the next step as I can't have him half naked all the time. I really don't know what to do, I already feel useless because I keep being told he's old enough he should be out of nappies completely bla bla. (He's 3 years old in May) How can I encourage him to wear pants more than 5 minutes? Because when I do get pants on him he says he needs a wee wee straight away so I help take them off he sits on his potty for a second, gets up and runs off.

Commando and baggy trousers! Definitely don't put pants on until he's well established with pottying. Just try baggy trousers for a while and then add pants later. Also, my 3 year old has been trained for 18 months and is only now pulling his pants and trousers down himself for the toilet! So that might not come for a little while, it's more an age/developmental thing to be able to undress. But keep encouraging it.

We had no pants for some time with my daughter. We then moved onto just trousers when out, as she found it really tricky to do pants as well. She's beginning to get the hang of both now. We started training in September.

My daughter loves having no pants on at home. She spends I’d say 90% of her time naked! She loves running round with no clothes on. She also tries to pull her pants off sometimes inside but she never does it when we’re outside the house. Have you actually been out yet with pants on or do you assume he’ll just do a wee so put a nappy on? I put my daughter in pants, her trousers, and then a pull up on top for the car. If she does a wee I just have to change her trousers and pants but I also take a potty in the car so whenever we get to where we’re going I put her on it and before we leave too. We’ve been potty training since 18 months and she’s 2 next month
