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.

THE BEST

I bought a pair of the cooling and the cotton and the cooling just blew it out of the water. They are SO comfortable and do not make any noise when walking. I wish I would have bought 2 pairs of these instead of the cotton ones.

Finally thriving in Australian summer weather

I was dreading another hot Australian summer but the 9" Cooling shorts have been a game-changer. I don't even notice I'm wearing them under dresses, even in weather above 36°C (96.8°F). The 9" length don't roll up at the leg or down at the waist, and miraculously hold in all my wobbly bits without feeling constricting (they give me back a thigh gap actually). I chose to go up a size to M/L to future-proof them (perimenopause weight gain is creeping in) but M/L is still pleasingly firm without being tight. I now have 5 pairs - an investment in my comfort and confidence.

Exceeded expectations

Not often does a product truely exceed my expectations but these sure did. Wore these all around South America on holiday and it is truely magic how the cooling works, was so comfortable. Did not roll or ride up at all. They felt very thin when I opened them and I immediately thought they would tear or have a hole in in no time, but after washing and wearing pretty much non stop for a month, still in perfect condition.
