Bear Kilts' Newest (and most important?) Kilt Accessory

I can testify BodyGlide works very well. I used it last summer and it sure made a real difference on my poor battered skin.

I'm just selling the 1.3oz size because the stuff lasts so long, it's all I need for kilt use.
My first stick lasted many months.
How fast do you go through an underarm deodorant stick? A stick of Body Glide lasts longer because you don't need it every day.

can't buy it in Australia, I tried last year, it's just not sold here.

A 1.3oz stick lasted me five months (with some left) of hiking 20+ mile days every day. It was a lifesaver.

In all my years of hiking through all kinds of terrain, I never heard of, or even imagined, this sort of thing...

I'm still a little weirded out by it.......

I guess I just can't quite figure out what it would feel like..... and the name throws me off a bit as well....

I did roughly a mile and a half power walk around the housing tract here, and by the time I got back home, the inside of my thighs were both red and painful

; I can see a use for it.

I think it's a matter of how the muscles of the upper legs are developed (and I'm not talking about fat, I have very little fat on my legs). Anyway, some rub as they walk, and some don't.

It wasn't technically my thighs that were the problem. When it was hot out, I was hanging low. When it was hot out I was sweating. Salt + rubbing = OUCH!

I just recently purchased some of this stuff myself at a local EMS store.
This stuff is great

It kind of feels slippery, a bit stange at first but after a few minuets you won't even notice it any more. Just put it on and forget about it

I just purchased some of this stuff from a local runners store. I've had issues with chaffing in the past, so hopefully this stuff will help out. I never knew it even existed until I saw it here on this forum.
