I love to wear my dresses in the summer so when the lovely people at Thigh Society contacted me to ask if I wanted to try a pair of Anti-Chafing Shorts* I jumped at the chance!
They currently have two different styles to choose from and advised that I should try the high rise short which has a slightly longer fit in the leg and a higher fitting waistband. This is ideal for me as the waist band comes up high (nearly to my bra) so it covers my tummy comfortably and doesn't roll down.
Bearing in mind that I'm 5'4" the longer version came to above my knee so ideal for wearing with my dresses as most of them are either on my knee or below so they cover the shorts completely.
When I first received them I was struck by how soft they are in fact when I put them on I kept stroking my legs as they felt so soft!!! They are lovely and lightweight which is great because lets be honest when the temperature rises I don't need heavy layers which will make me sweat
What really sets these apart is the use of Sorbtek technology to move moisture away from your skin quickly so you don't feel any discomfort.
In terms of size I tried the XL/2XL and they are spot on, (please note the sizing on the site is US sizing so keep that in mind if you fancy ordering a pair) the material is super stretchy so it doesn't dig into your skin but still stays put when you move. I decided to try the nude material as a lot of my summer dresses are lighter in color but you can also get these in black as well.
I would even consider trying them under closer fitting clothes as there are no seams apart from the ones that run along your inner thigh (but they don't scratch) so you get no VPL and they are close fitting.
My verdict on these.... quite honestly I love them I think I may have finally found the ideal comfort shorts for me that will see me through the summer (well lets hope the sun comes back out again in the UK!!). Goodbye chub rub hello comfortable summer fun!!
If you like the look of these then head over to Thigh Society and a grab a pair!
