Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I wear XS in both. The Flanci XS is a little more generous. I need S in Tikiboo.

Just had all my hair cut off, I’m less likely to wear a skort now because I look boyish!

It’s funny these body hang ups we get but I’m a size 10 with wobbly thighs that still rub together if I wear short shorts!
I’d love to like how I look in a skort for modesty and but of s taboo subject but I do have bladder problems and I worry about people being able to see my tena lady in shorts!

I look up to people who are 5ft and over. I’m only 4ft 9ish (there may be an extreme quarter of an inch to go along with that 9)

I like my Tikiboo skort in XS. If I had to be picky I'd say I'd like the hemline of the shorts to be slightly more grippy on my thigh, but they're perfectly fine for lounging at home, which is where I'll be wearing them. Thank you to V'Rap and Claire for recommending Tikiboo.

I know skapris are not favoured on this thread but I would feel happier venturing outdoors in skapris than a skort, especially in autumn/winter for extra warmth in the nether regions! I might try the SBD skapris when they become available in a short length (I'm another one who is also only a smidgeon over 5').

Jelly, someone was singing the praises of modibodi pants the other day, if you wanted to try a different strategy.

Thanks Lizzie Whizz, they are a great idea but £35 for a pair of knickers, I would just worry that they might chafe!

Actually scratch that they do a 60 day risk free trial so I may just try a pair out!

Jelly, I have used "baggies" the loise, bermuda style mountain bike shorts over running shorts, cycling style to stop chaffing to hide adult nappies when I went through a phase of incontenence when ill and recovering from illness. I made sure the "baggies" were shorter than the long cycling style shorts...
