Recommendations for supportive anti chafing shorts or skorts in hot weather. I got serious thunder thighs rash

Sos. Heat and the chaff of my thunder thighs as I was around

I'm a UK based size 14 dumpling. I need recommendations for some serious shorts that support the rub or a skort!

I am walking around like I have birthed the biggest poo ever! We haven't even made it in to July!

Please all. UK based. Thank you

I got some great ones from TK Maxx. They're GAP ones and came in a pack of 3, I think I paid around £12 in all.

Someone on here told me to use stick deodorant. It works, under shorts can be hot and add bulk, if I'm going for a long walk in a dress and it's hot I put mitchum stick/cream deodorant on my inner thighs, works like a dream

I don't need these anymore due to a bit of weight loss, but when I needed them these were easily the best I tried:

Snag chub rub shorts. I was a convert 4 summers ago!

I still have Proskins shorts from years ago-they are actually quite cool, very comfy and prevent rubbing. I don't know if the company still exists-I looked a while ago as I wanted some with pockets, and the original website didn't work, but there was an outlet website.

I second these. They are lightweight and cool. And pretty inexpensive too.

I don't like lots of synthetic fabric up by by nethers, so I prefer these which are cotton with a bit of stretch. https://amzn.eu/d/08bxoRz1

I’m not sure if it was you who recommended these on another thread the other day, but having seen them again I’ve now ordered some coming on Sunday. I have some mns ones but these look much better because they’re 95% cotton, so thank you! Fingers crossed they fit!
