Although some will just go along with it because it's fashion.
But the bottoms are usually elasticated anyway so, depending on the style of tracksuit bottom, items are unlikely to fall out. Plus, why would you want to go around with your bottoms full of loot, much easier to conceal (and jettison) in a coat or top.
I am not entirely convinced by the drug dealer theory either mind...
