I wore my skort for a snowy run and a snow Angel. I would maybe say stick with your safer size, they will still fit and just be a bit more forgiving if they become too big sell on and celebrate buying a smaller size.

Sorry EP, that post ^^^ was in response to your omg post
I have the same chub rub issues and likeness to an elephant. I've worn Ron Hill shorts for years and they are longer leg and don't rise up. Flanci is my first time of veering away to another brand and the 19cm leg is plenty long enough to prevent it.
I can't help my elephant form so ignore it. I guess I don't care enough how I look when I'm running, but I wear baggy tops to hide the wobbling bits.

Still dicking about on whether to get a other or wait for new ones which in fairness I’d buy anyway. I know come spring/summer I’ll wear them just for walks too.

I don't have any problem with self image and where what I like. Don't care what anyone else thinks!

I haven't had a problem with Flanci shorts/skorts riding up. They do give the tip of wetting your legs before hand to help keep them in place.

Still sitting on my hands...

I've ordered another skort and a pair of capris. :-O That's it now.

I'm going to have to have a sort out of my running stuff - I have far too many tops that I never wear and as I only have one large box in the bottom of the wardrobe to keep it al in, some things are going to have to go because the box is overflowing.
