Does anyone else find their Ronhill Tracksters disintegrate in the groin area pretty quickly? Or is it just me?

Any suggestions of cheap alternative tights/tracksters that won't disintegrate? I usually go for the cheapest but obviously if they aren't going to last 5 minutes...

Shorts disintegrate eventually, but I get a lot more mileage out of them than I do with Ronhill Tracksters.

& it's -3 out there. I don't want too much shrinkage

maybe too much vaseline is ruining that area?

Without getting into detail, why worry about shrinkage? It normalises back in the warm, right? And it's not as if you're going running in 40 below, where it might fall off?

I don't think it's vaseline as I use body glide, but then maybe I have vaselined in the past when I've wore them. There is a very small window of time when I do run in tracksters so they're a few years old but barely used.

I did a bit of research and found this in the small print of of the Ron Hill site: "Wearers with massive balls may experience some wasting of the material that surrounds those massive balls." Basically, you've got not comeback.
