Best product I've bought for chafing
The bandelettes do not slide down, they are very comfortable and do their job well. My UK dress size is 8 and these fit me well.

Can't believe I held off buying these for so long!
I held myself back from buying these after seeing them advertised online for quite a long time. As someone who suffers from the dreaded "chub rub" no matter if I'm a size 12 or 16 (and everywhere in between!) I felt like this was the only option I hadn't tried. I was fed up of wearing shorts under my skirts and dresses, wearing leggings or trousers all the time or carrying body glide or talc in my bag which only worked for so long and so I decided to take the plunge and get these.Honestly, the main things that put me off buying for so long were the price, a concern that the lace would rub and/or the bandelettes would just fall down or bunch up. Those worries were completely removed within hours of trying them!I've worn these around 5 times now, on one of those days I was walking for around an hour in about 25 degree sunshine. Normally in those situations, I would start to chafe after about 10 minutes walking. I've had absolutely no rubbing at all using these. They fit perfectly, they don't pinch in nor do they fall down and no one would know I was wearing them! Due to the lace design, they also look nice, unlike the cycling shorts I used to wear under my dresses! I feel attractive in these, whereas other options just made me feel frumpy!I've been so impressed with them that I've bought a second pair in the nude as well for under paler dresses. I've also recommended them to a lot of friends! As I'm sure you can therefore guess - I now think they are well worth the money and I only wish I had bought these sooner!The only other point to note is how great the seller was on this. I wanted these at quite short notice, ordering on a Friday lunchtime and needing them for an event on Sunday. I had missed the deadline for getting these on the Saturday on prime but saw that on the Mish website, you can call and get next day delivery. Upon speaking to the girls there, they advised me to order on here ASAP and that they would look out for it and make sure my parcel was included in the Amazon delivery order for Saturday. They couldn't have been more helpful and my parcel arrived on the Saturday lunchtime. It's not often that you find sellers who are willing to put themselves out for you so I couldn't leave that out of this review!

Pretty good!
My thighs are 28 inches at their biggest so I got size B. They fit perfectly. Not tight and not loose at all. The adhesive didn't make my legs sore or anything. I bought them so I could wear them under my shorts at a festival so I could have fun and not suffer all weekend from chafing. I've worn them once under a long skirt so far and I completely forgot I was wearing them until I went to the toilet and saw them!One pair is enough at the moment, I don't know think I'll buy another pair because they are expensive for what they are and you can always wash them.Overall I really like them! They've saved my skin (literally) and I'm glad I bought them.

Good for short term
Generally this product works well and has helped with my chin rub but I wouldn’t recommend wearing them longer than about 3 or 4 hours because for me the rubbery part of the bands that stops them from falling almost gives friction burn in itself, and they become very uncomfortable especially if you sweat a lot. It caused raised red rash like patches on my thighs that were itchy and sore for about half a day after use. Also threads kept coming off them all the time even before washing them. So all in all a good short term solution but definitely not suitable for long term wear.

A waste of money and a false hope for a perennial problem.
I did quite a lot of research before settling on this product and the joke's on me really as it turns out they were useless.I've tried a few powders and creams, with little success- this seemed like a sensible alternative.I'm a size 12/14 so I bought a size B, which seemed to fit okay, though there is some slight rolling down at the top once you actually walk.Firstly, the lace fabric completely negates the point of this product. it's the same chafe burn, only now with added friction. Why not just use a solid fabric? Lycra?Secondly, the gummy, stay-up strips that keep the bandalettes in place give you an excellent heat rash which is just not solving the initial problem and adding more besides.At £20 they're not exactly cheap too.A waste of money and a false hope for a perennial problem.

A curvy girl's new best friend!
I've only just received my bandalettes and am yet to wear them in a 'real world' scenario (I'll update my review when I do), but so far I'm pretty pleased! They're made of a nice, soft and stretchy lace and for a 'nude' colour they're quite pretty - some nice little iridescent bits in the lace. It was a little nerve wracking unpacking them as the silicon on each side had stuck together and they were tough to pull apart, but nothing ripped so that's a good start! They fit comfortably, although I maybe could have gone a size down... I can slide a finger round the outer side quite easily, but I think if they were any tighter they'd make my thighs look a bit lumpy. A unexpected perk is that the bands kind of 'cinch' in your thighs under your bum and give you an instant bum lift :) I've had a walk around the house in them and they're comfy and I haven't had any rolling or movement yet - we'll see what happens when I wear them out in the wild! Candid side note: I was a little *ahem* unkempt in the bikini area when I tried these on and the silicon does pull a bit on any hair in the upper thigh area. Not painfully, but a bit of an odd sensation - something to bare in mind for ladies like me who are a bit lazy on their topiary duties!**UPDATE** The bandalettes had a baptism of fire walking around Italy in 25 degree heat and they held up amazingly! Really comfortable and no slippage - forgot I had them on! Definitely going to feel much more comfortable wearing dresses this summer :)

AMAZING even for plus size
I’m a plus sized girl, usually wear 22-24 so I was worried the 3x may be too tight. They fit so perfectly there is good stretch they don’t leave marks on my legs and they stay put!!! No rolling or sliding. Wore them all day when it was almost 40c outside and they didn’t budge and no chaffing!! Will be buying more of these!!!

A lifesaver for thick thighs!
Bought these to wear under my wedding dress and they were FANTASTIC! They stayed in place all day long through sweat and heat and kept my thighs comfy and chafe free! I’ll definitely be wearing these under all my dresses from now on. Highly recommend!

Le uniche, le sole.
Ho acquistato queste fasce anni fa e sono state la mia salvezza: proteggono le cosce dall'attrito dello sfregamento e sono anche carine da vedere. Il pizzo elastico aderisce alla gamba e le strisce di silicone assicurano aderenza. Le ho riacquistare con gioia dopo aver provato un paio della concorrenza, ma che non hanno superato il test. Anche se non sono economiche, le Bandelletes valgono tutti i soldi spesi, sono una certezza se si vuole indossare gonne e vestiti in libertà.

Worked better than expected!
I've always had "chub rub" on my thighs even when I was quite skinny. Now that I'm older and am a bit overweight, it's been very problematic. I'm going to be moving to Florida soon, and we've been visiting the area a lot recently. My chub rub has been so bad that I've given myself red rashes and even raised, angry blisters on my thighs. I've tried drying dusting powders, deodorant, oils, sunblock, you name it. Everything wore off within minutes and left me in extreme pain with every step.I ordered these before our last trip based on desperation and the wonderful reviews so far. I am 5'8", currently about 230 pounds, with a lot of thigh. I measured myself right on the border of size D and E (just shy of 29 inches). Based on the reviews that seemed to indicate going down was better than going up, I ordered the size D. I got the smooth plain design, not the lace.Wow, am I impressed! They fit perfectly (glad I went down). The fabric is smooth and comfortable. I really appreciated the reviews that said to try angling them so that the inner thigh side is higher than the outer thigh - that prevented them from rolling completely. Once they found the "sweet spot," they didn't budge once. They completely stopped any thigh rub and kept my skin safe and protected! If these things can stand up to a full day of walking around in 95 degree Florida heat and humidity, then they can stand up to anything!The only thing I noted is that my skin (which is a bit sensitive) got slightly irritated along the areas of the silicone stickies when I wore them 2+ days in a row. When I skipped a day and wore pants in between days, that completely resolved and they were comfy again all day.Highly recommend! I'll be buying more!
