I use medium quality shorts and don’t have any issue with shifting shorts. If you are changing positions on your saddle for comfort, raise your behind and then sit down rather than scooting on the saddle which can lead to bunching or shifting of the chamois. Bibs do make great spanx for overweight male guts.

I am sure someone will disagree about the heat aspect, but that is my experience.
