Frequently Asked Questions

Our shorts are made of a mix of Pima—the champagne of cottons, which is extra-soft and extra-durable—and modal, a natural fiber that's resistant to shrinkage and pilling. Together, they create a texture that’s as luxurious and velvety as a Sade song.

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.

Cooling Blush 9" for ballet

I recently purchased the Cooling short in 9" in blush, actually I purchased them as an alternative to cutoff ballet tights. These are super silky, very comfortable and the best part is that they keep me comfortable and dry as I dance!! Plus the Blush color is a perfect color match to dance tights. I wish the Blush came in 21", I'd buy three pairs today :D For reference I am a M/L in my clothing, I bought the M/L and they are perfect fit. I'm a fan and will buy more :)

Well Worth the Money

I bought the 5" cotton thigh shorts in black and in almond. They are very comfortable (fitted but not tight), lightweight, breathable and well-made. I bought the thigh shorts to prevent summer chafing when I wear dresses and shirts. They are doing a great job!

Surprisingly cool!

I will be purchasing more soon. They are expensive but worth it when wearing summer dresses on hot days. I fully expected to be dripping with sweat but they kept me surprisingly cool.

Surprisingly cool!

Wore these for the first time on a hot day and had low expectations BUT they didn't make me sweaty (like most other non-cotton underwear that I have worn). Impressive.
