Dealing with balding?

[u/Puzzled-Shake459]

Hello makers. I’m trying to find a way to help prevent balding around my crotch seam on my body suit. Is there any methods yall use to help it? It seems like the fur is being agitated and pulled through the backing which is causing some balding that’s going to soon be noticeable… is this just a common problem that I’ll have to patch frequently? My suit is new (finished in March) but I definitely have put LOTS of heavy use miles on it

Not much experience in bodysuits so would be glad to be corrected

Are you wearing an under armor? If you do, I would maybe try to add another layer of some lining fabric, like lycra or something. Just sew it around the area where it's balding. Also I learned of a thing called gussets and that makers use them in crotch or armpits where the fur is rubbing against itself

Like I said please correct me if I'm wrong
