Snag chub rub shorts

I bought some snag chub rub shorts to wear under some very short denim shorts I have. I got them for modesty purposes rather than chub rub purposes. I am a size 10, 5'10" so I got size E. I don't have large thighs.

Tried them on, and the bottom end is digging into my thighs in a most unattractive manner. WTH? All the pictures on their site (well most) are larger women and they don't seem to have this issue. Do they stretch? I really want them to work, but I don't want to keep them to try for a while only to find the issue persists, since they're not that cheap.

Yes, same here. I first bought some a few years ago that fitted perfectly, bought more the same size the next year and this happens. I have now lost 2 stone and it still happens, won't be buying any more I don't think, it's a shame because I like the colours.

They're designed to sit quite low on the leg, almost to the knee so potentially you're wearing them too high if it's under a (properly) short skirt?

Sorry OP but you are talking about double shorts here. I really don’t think it would work. They were never intended for that.

Some of mine are tighter than others, c despite all being the same size. My older ones are not like that. The quality seems to have decided.
That said they do stretch a bit I find. I've got huge thighs and wear an F and none of them dig in.

Ok, I guess they aren't for me. I will return them
