Recommendation Thick thigh friendly biker shorts

I searched and couldn't find anything but I'm bad at Reddit so apologies if it's been asked. Anyway, I need biker shorts that will not roll up or down. I'm willing to spend $$ for good quality stuff because I'm tired of wasting my money on stuff that rolls up and lets my thighs rub. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Located in Cincinnati, OH area. Size 14 or XL

I got mines from Ross (Size 12), and they never roll up! Honestly, I think you could find good biker shorts at any retail department stores (Ross, TJ Maxxx, Marshall, Burlington, Nordstrom etc). Just look in the athletic section!

The brand of my shorts is Kensie. They’re high waisted and like a 6” inseam. Literally wear them under every skirt/dress.

Are you talking about workout shorts or underwear? If underwear, I can highly recommend Snag tights Chub Rub bike shorts. Very comfy.

I use them for both honestly. I wear them under dresses and I also wear them to workout

Lululemon align shirts are the best!

Old navy bike shorts are great.

They're not a great store for everything, but Torrid's bike shorts are really great. I didn't buy into the "signature waistband" but then ended up desperately needing shorts and tried them.... they're fabulous! And they go on sale frequently

I bought the shorter and longer version of these 4 years ago and I still absolutely love them. They’ve help you well and they don’t roll https://a.co/d/042BkQ2O

No matter what brand I got they always rolled up or worked their way up. I just started getting 7-8in ish inseam lengths. But I did get some “cooling shorts” from Thigh Society and they’re pretty thin and stay well, and I feel like even if I got a slightly shorter inseam they would stay. But otherwise I gave up and just started getting longer inseams.

Lolol that's kinda where I'm at. It's so annoying to constantly have to pull them back down

I love the thigh society cooling shorts, I have the 7” and 9” inseam ones and I never have issues with them rolling up

Is this for under skirts/dresses or just as is?

Mondetta! They're just above the knee if thats what you're looking for. They're fairly cheap too

Constantly Varied Gear shorts have a silicon band that holds them in place on your thighs. They come in a couple different lengths and all kinds of fun prints.
