Shorts for thick thighs!

5 replies

TheFunnyPinkWriter · 28/09/2025 14:57

Hi all
I need some help! We're off on holiday to the Canaries during October half term.
Since our last holiday, due to health conditions, I have put on weight and none of my stuff fits!
I need to find shorts, I am 5ft2 with big thighs and suffer with chronic chub rub so anything really short is a no go.
Any suggestions on where to look?

Try Bodyglide. It's a miracle worker. You can wear whatever shorts you want then!

The longer Halara shorts on TikTok look good, I’m thinking of them myself

I find that shorts with a double turn up at the bottom help balance out the appearance of heavy thighs. I think its just the extra thickness of them.

Thank you, I've tried everything (I used to be a runner) and still chafe 😞

Not particularly fashionable but cotton traders are good.
