Frequently Asked Questions

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

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.

Comfy & Practical

LOVE The Cargo! Wore them in HOT weather while walking a parade and they were perfect under a skirt. Breatheable and have a handy pocket for your phone/money.:)

Love at first Tight(s)?

Excuse the punny title. I was giddy over how well these fit!! They aren't for compressing as much as they are for comfort, and it was a breath of fresh air. I loved these! Plus the pocket is so handy when I'm moving around the house with my headphones, I have a place to stow my phone. They don't roll at the waist, nor pinch at the leg hems, and they qre just so comfy. I'm gonna need to order another pair.

TS Shorts Forever

I'm a huge fan of Thigh Society shorts, nothing but awesome words about these shorts. So comfortable, easy to take care of, most importantly, they look and feel great. My most recent purchase was the Lapis (Blue) so happy I purchase this color. Thanks Thigh Society.

Better than other options

Keeping because they’re better than what I have at the moment and I think I missed the exchange window. The shorts are nice though the size guide is off because I wear a 2x/20/22 and getting the 3x as recommended is far too large. Also, the pocket is too small to only have one. To assume everyone is right handed and not have pockets on both sides is a lot.

Wish I'd found these sooner!

These are so comfortable! Great to wear on their own or underneath something. I like them especially for lots of walking at amusement parks--keep me cool, wick sweat, and prevent chafing--all with a convenient pocket that fits my cell phone. I'm ordering more!
