    to help them heal, get the cream women use when they breastfeed. it is great for that. to prevent i second the snug underlayer. although my hubby uses a tshirt under his jersey. the shirt is loose but the jersey is not. it works for him though.

    nip covers

    At the running store here, they actually sell "nip aids" or something...basically sweat proof band-aids for your nips. My husband swears by body glide. He has a few shirts that he won't work for long runs because of nip irritation. I was amazed the first time I went to actually see a marathon, the number of men crossing the finish line with bloody shirt fronts from nipple irritation.

    The first man, I was shocked. The second, I was curious. The third, I was thinking...why hasn't someone invented something for this?????

    This happens to me once in a while. Tell him to try a soft base layer like silk or really fine polypro.

    If he sweats at all, the vaseline and bandaid will come right off.

    I got kudos in OCS because my nipples started bleeding through my PT shirt during a PT test. They said if I was trying so hard that I made my nipples bleed, I must have been trying really hard.

    But I had to do pushups because I didn't push myself hard enough to puke.

    You just never know what will make you a target at 4 a.m. surrounded by crazy army officers.

    Really...???

    If the guy has a fairly hairy chest and cycling jerseys aren't super tight across his chest, does it reduce the possibility of stinging nips?

    Honest I've never heard of this problem...from guys.
