Oakleaf... when I did my marathons, I wasn't wearing these shorts, so not sure if they'd chaf on a marathon race...

but I don't get chaffing with them otherwise. I've run a few 1/2 marathons in them, and run in them all the other times... and I get very little chaffing.

and yes I use body glide alot... and if I do a 1/2 marathon, I configure something out on a race belt to carry a small chunck of body glide with me and reapply it every now and then.

the shorts are awesome... I see so many girls wearing them.
