You turned me on to Craft baselayers, which are fantastic. But when I wear one long term, like hours on skis or a long hike, it can chafe my nipples too. It hurts!!
How does this stuff affect technical fabrics? It's a small area so I'm not worried about it being less breathable, I'm worried about whether I'll damage my shirts? Any thoughts?
That is bizarre, I used to run 10k runs regularly with a regular t-shirt or soccer jersey on? I guess everyones body is different.
On topic: I use the Body Glide anti chafe stick on the lower edge of my gluteus muscles because that is where I tend to get chafing on very long rides. How do people use chamois butter exactly, same way? Or does chamois butter go on the perineum area? (I've never found the need to apply anything at the perineum area because that area is stationary on the saddle, no chafing occurs).
