        I have used the Suunto, Wahoo, Polar and now Morpheus chest strap with no chafing issues from any of them… what area are you getting the chafing?

          @peegee The solution could be a “running bra” for men that you can put the heart rate strap inside like there is a training bra for women by Polar

            I’m familiar with the bra…🤦‍♀️
            We need Suunto to come up with a solution for men🙋‍♂️

              Could you give a link for the strap you mentioned?

                  Move it lower maybe?

                    @Danny-poleg suggested this hr vest which looks very promising.

                    https://www.cardiosport.co.uk/product-page/biovest-smart-heart-rate-vest

                    Trouble is they don’t have a variety of sizes at all
                    And unfortunately don’t ship to my country…
                    Does anyone know of a similar solution?

                      @peegee I use the Suunto HRM but run the whole thing under a tap before putting it on (sensor & strap) so the whole thing is soaking wet then wear it only just tight enough so it doesn’t slip down.

                      I used to wear it much tighter as the strap slipped down when dry until my sweat held it in place & I did get some chaffing, wearing it wet & looser stopped the chafe immediately👍

                      It’s a bit of a shock putting it on this way on a cold autumn morning but works for me so give it a try mate.

                        I used to get chaffed when using a neo for swimming until I read that others aply vaseline maybe give that a try just at the problematik spots.
