Hey guys,

So awkward question for the lady runners..have you guys had wedgie issues with your compression shorts a few months after purchasing them? How did you fix that? Is the fabric stretching out or something from wear? Thanks

    Try wearing underwear that won't wedgie.

    Do the shorts fit properly? I have found if they don't fit properly I have issues.

    Yeah, they fit fine. I've been running in them since June.

    Keep going commando. Nothing wrong with it at all and honestly I don't understand how people don't go commando. I don't run in compression shorts most of the time but I do run in running skirts with bloomers underneath and I usually end up with a wedgie. Everyone once in a while I may tug it out a lil but honestly I usually just leave it there. If it's a new thing, I would think it could be due to material stretching or your body shape/size changing.

    If you're losing weight, then the shorts may be getting baggy, which may be why you're getting wedgies.

    I get them from time to time. I wear fitted capris. Just pull it out and keep truckin'. I don't care who sees me.
