I always have a wedgy and I'm fed up. How to avoid?

Wedgy? Wedgie? Weggie? Knickers scrunched up my arse.

I buy large knickers with plenty of fabric to cover everything, but it just seems to mean more fabric scrunched uncomfortably. I've tried various cuts and fabrics.

Is it my arse design? Is there anything that might solve this?

Ive got some sloggi pants that give good coverage and never end up creeping up my bum

Sainsbury's full briefs solved this for me, the cotton multi pack type not fancy slippery material. One size up from dress size (that you really are, not what you wish to be!) cut labels out so you don't remember they are an 18Grin

Exactly this, I go up 2 sizes in Sainsbury pants, though their trousers fit my real size.

That said, I've not bought any for a few years, and the last lot were thinner than the previous ones, but still OK.

Kmart? Are you Australian? If so then no good recommending stores in the UK unless you have them. I wear these , big arse and never any problems.

In Aus, Boody full briefs, Jockey Parisian full briefs (and the Target rip off version) and Kmart full briefs stay where intended.

I've an ample, hungry bum too, I wear slimma full pants (not as good as they used to be) and sloggi, neither venture to unwanted parts. Sloggi are expensive but I buy when there's a discount on.

Used to have this problem, started wearing cheap version of chub rub shorts with dresses and now wear all the time with everything. Life changing. I now understand why my old granny used to wear bloomers.

Next 100 per cent cotton briefs - I can’t be doing with Lycra and neither can my arse crack. Grin

I've suffered from life long munchy bum, and have worn thongs since I was in my teens.

If they're going to end up there you may as well stick em there in the first place

Jockey Parisian full briefs stay where they are supposed to.

These are the champions, though.
