7/24/2023 0 Comments Undercarriage of a 68 el caminoIn fact, after the first week and I lost enough water weight I stopped using the Bodyglide since my thighs got smaller.Īfter years of running and training here in KC where it gets stupid hot, humid and stupid cold, the Exofficio brand is all I use everyday. ![]() My last Camino I suffered no chafing whatsoever. Having had the dubious distinction of acquiring a varicocele which stayed with me for a year and more before clearing up spontaneously I try my best not to repeat the experience.Īs a big guy with stocky thighs I have to give a nod to the ExOfficio 9" boxer-brief(mesh or standard version) and Bodyglide combo. Having my wedding tackle bouncing up and down like a yo-yo for hours on end can result in serious discomfort. On a related note I prefer fairly close-fitting and supportive underwear which prevents much movement in that department. I have come far closer to abandoning a Camino because of chafing than I ever have done because of blisters Something like boxers where the hem is someway down the thigh rather than tight in the groin is useful. Then the salt from the sweat gets into the raw patch. For me the length of the underwear is the key issue for chafing - the hem of my usual briefs saws into the crease at the top of my thigh if they become damp with sweat. ![]() Another solution was to wear very thin lycra cycling shorts as underpants. Shorts with a mesh lining certainly helped. I used to have serious chafing problems walking when wearing the cotton briefs I usually wear at home.
