Frequently Asked Questions

Well, to start, they’re silky smooth under any outfit. But more importantly, if you run hot—and are one of those people who’s constantly setting the thermostat to “meat locker” temperature—these are going to be a revelation.

They’re made of hi-tech fabric that lowers the body temperature. (If you want to get geeky about it, the flat cross-section of the yarn offers a wide surface area that quickly releases body heat from your skin.) The yarn texturizing process gives the shorts incredible breathability; the finished ultra-thin fabric is a breeze to wear, literally.

We’re glad you asked. Think of them as a combination between an old-school slip, a boxer brief and a bike short: They give you coverage under short or too-sheer outfits, stop your inner thighs from trying to start a forest fire, and light smoothing with no VPL (the word “panties” weirds us out, too). Plus, the knit-in cotton-rich crotch means you can wear them without underwear if you want, eliminating the need for an extra layer.

Thigh Society shorts don’t compress you or suck you in like shapewear. Instead, they’re a lightweight, breathable, sweat-wicking essential you’ll reach for again and again.

Flexible and stretchy, our waistband is made from the same fabric as the shorts, just double-folded and sewn-in. It stretches to your curves, never cuts into them. The waistband is like the Loch Ness Monster: you’ll doubt it really exists.

Comfortable

I like the stretch and can wear them comfortably for several hours. The only drawback is that the waistband rolls down and I find I need to reposition often. However, I would purchase again.

Love these so much!

These are just what I needed to wear under my dresses. I previously had been wearing an old pair of shorts, but these are son much more comfortable! They’re buttery soft and I honestly forget I have them on. I’m planning to buy a couple more in different colors.

Cool, Comfy & Cute

I just love my Thigh Society apparel. No friction, no slipping up or rolling down! The fashion colors are fun especially if there is a case they may be seen

These things are fire!

Ok, what’s your problem, no matter if it’s chub rub, sweaty buns, underwear riding up, waistband rolling down, not wanting to feel squeezed, these cooling shorts are fantastic . Light, breezy and it’s as if you are going commando!

Does cool

I have thigh chafing and any time of wear a skirt or dress especially in the spring/summer it is miserable. I have not tried the shorts in 90+ degree weather but when it has been warm and i do think they circulate air better than the supima cotton shorts i have from elsewhere (granted the cooling shorts are pretty see-through so pros and cons). It stays up on my waist but the leg openings do roll up a little. I like how it has a silky feel to it. Overall i would recommend.
