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.

Still rolls

Don’t believe the hype, they still roll up. When I made a complaint they didn’t care. All they want is good reviews.

LOVE!!!!

These have been such a blessing. Yes, I wear them under my dresses, but also my skorts for that added cooling factor. I don't dread going out in the heat anymore because I know my legs won't stick together and they'll even feel cooler.

100/10 Would Recommend!

I bought three of the 9” cooling shorts for a recent trip to Italy and they were truly a lifesaver! The waist band did not roll down on me (I bought true to size and didn’t size down). I was worried about the length of the shorts, but it was so important to me that they didn’t ride up and cause my thighs to rub together. They were perfect. Didn’t move all day and genuinely kept me cool traipsing all over Italy in 90 degree heat! I bought three pairs and might have to buy more. My absolute favorite shorts for under skirts/dresses!!

Just what my thighs have been waiting for.

I purchased the cooling shorts for myself and my daughter-in-heart. We love them - our thighs love them: great product, perfect fit, light-weight and do not ride up - just perfect, thank you.

Love them

Followed sizing chart, bought two pairs (one by sizing chart and one next size up). Sizing was correct. No issues with rolling and they are extremely comfortable in hot weather. Both sizes are comfortable to me
