Frequently Asked Questions

We know, right? It’s partly because of the clever construction of our women's cargo shorts, partly because of the first-rate fabric blend and partly because it supports your body without feeling constricting. Plus, IT HAS A POCKET.

They're both! 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.

The pocket is made of the exact same fabric as the shorts, and sewn in with a flat seam that sits flush against your body. No added bulk aside from the treasures you decide to stash in it.

Not bad

I'm diabetic and I got these to go under dresses/skirts so I have a pocket for my insulin pump. Placement of the pocket was good if you have a looser skirt, but would be obvious with a slinkier/tight fitting dress.
I wore them over tights & under a dress for a cold/winter wedding guest outfit.
Four star instead of five just because the first time I put them on, my socked foot did that thing where it frictions with the fabric, got caught & pulled and immediately a couple stitches on the pocket ripped when the fabric stretched.
They're soft (which is nice!) but the softer fabric made them really hard to pull up when worn over tights. Also kind of caught my dress skirt as well so wouldn't recommend with any silky materials on top.

So excited!

Truly a life changer. I am 4'10" have larger than average thighs and originally bought the 5" in S/M. This was a great choice. But I wanted fun colors, not just Ballet, Black and skin-toned. The only size available were XS/S; since I am currently losing weight, I decided to try them. I pleased to share I decided to try the 7" leg and go smaller. The shorts do have a lot of stretch! These are perfect. 😍 I just wish there were more colors available.
