Shellydon Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 My Land's End swim shorts leave me with chafed legs every time I wear them. I am looking for something that won't rub so badly. Any suggestions? My older LE swim shorts did not bother me, but my newer pair are made from something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snickerplum Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Athleta has a style that I really like. I can't remember the name, sorry. I'd check there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornblower Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 You might want to try the ones that are two layers: the inner layer is a snug legging, the outer layer is looser puffy fabric. Without that inner layer that stays put, if you have fabric always moving against the skin, there will be a a risk of chafing, no matter how smooth the fabric.

Truscifi Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I found some at Target that have a regular swim bottom inside, then the shorts over that. I find them very comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Has anyone tried surf-style leggings? I need uv protection to at least the mid-calf, if not ankle, and something suitable for surfing/body boarding. Baggy would be bad in the ocean. That said, I'm really seam-sensitive, and would hate to spend the $$-$$$ and then have chafe issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
