Snag chub rub shorts help?

[Godofwar]

I love a pair of chub rub shorts but the ones I’ve been wearing in previous summers are cotton and quite thick which sucks on a roasting day.

I’ve heard Snag chub rub are much cooler and would love to try a pair but I’m so confused on the sizing. It doesn’t help that I’m between sizes. I’m a 10/12 and 5ft6 so going on their size chart I should be either a C or a D but I really don’t want them to be uncomfortable and cutting in especially when sitting down. Can anyone help? Please!

You're more likely a c, I think.
I'm comfy in a d and I'm a 16/18.
They're really comfy and not warm at all.

To be honest I found the shorts from The Big Bloomers Company to be better.

I’m a size 12 and wear a D- they’re perfect.

I really rate them- light enough that they keep you cool but substantial enough that you don’t need knickers.

Their sizing is weird but I can’t see you being more than a C (possibly even a B)

I find them good and not warm, but they don’t last quite as well as the thicker ones.

I understand the Popsy ones are good.

M+S shorts are much better IMO.

Go for the bigger size

I love them. I’m a 12 and wear a D. No cutting in, no rolling down and plenty cool
enough. Mine have lasted pretty well - I’ve got some that are now seeing their 3rd summer. Just be careful how you wash them - I often pop them inside a laundry bag or pillow case to avoid them snagging on anything.
I’ve just ordered another 3 pairs for this year as I wear dresses pretty much daily over the summer and these are brilliant under them.

Really appreciate the replies so far but such a cross section of opinions! Fingers crossed for some more replies and I’ll go with the majority

Pretty sure I had C in their tights and am 5ft 7 and 14/16. They're big.

Different approach - but have you tried roll on deodorant? I was sceptical, but it works well for me and is obviously cooler than shorts.

Snag shorts are fab, I'd suggest C

You can ask them online chat

Totally unnecessary in my opinion, unless for decency purposes! I'm bigger than you - my thighs rubbed so much I blistered my skin. The answer? Good old Vaseline. Lasts all day. No chub rub.

Read this with interest but does anyone know where I can get a cotton version of these please?

My dd likes the ones from the Big Bloomer company too.

I’m a 12 and always go for C. They’re fab!

I'm bigger but the sizing is fairly flexible as their tights/shorts are stretchy
I can wear an E or F in tights

Snag chub rub shorts are a game changer for me! Love them

I have tried all of them and the best are Jockey Skimmies. Trust me.

I much prefer the Jockey Skimmies to the Snag shorts.

I would go for a C or even a B. I'm a 14-16, 5ft 4 and was still wearing my Ds at 41 weeks pregnant. They're super stretchy.

I've not tried any other brands but I really like them. They were more comfortable than any of the other solutions I tried like deodorant and bandelettes and anti-chafe gel.

I bought snag tights and their size chart was way off and they fall down consistently. When I complained to their customer services I was told I must have read the chart wrong, which I found a bit patronising. When I confirmed I hadn't and confirmed my size/height, they agreed I had the right size according to that, but confirmed the size chart doesn't always work, which is a bit diff when they don't do free returns and you can't try them anywhere. That put me off getting this shorts so will try some of these other suggestions

Did you get any @Godofwar ? I’ve been thinking about getting snags but it’s the fact they are tights material that’s putting me off.
