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.

Actually works

I got these in preparation for a trip that I anticipated would have a lot of walking, and they arrived just in time for it. I also work a physical job (standing and walking for 8 hours a day), and I used to get really bad chafing by the end of the day, bad enough that I’d be near limping after work, but these shorts really did help for both! I probably should have sized up and gotten longer shorts, but for a mostly blind buy, I’m very pleasantly surprised!

Amazed!

Hi
I had ordered the beige and black 9" month or so ago. I am going on vacation this winter and want to wear dresses.
I very seldom wear dresses because of chafing problems.
I finally tried the beige pair out yesterday. I am shocked and amazed how well these worked. The cooling was as soon as I put them on! I was almost cold, and I am never cold, it was refreshing not to be all sweaty all day long!!
The chafing...none whatsoever!!
I think I will be wearing more dresses in the future. Can't wait to wear them on holidays!!
Thank you!!

Bridesmaid in august approved

These were a LIFESAVER when I had to wear a long gown as a bridesmaid in august. It was a 30+ degree day and I had to fight for my life in my heels. I'm so thankful I didn't need to worry about getting a chub rub that day. And I kept forgetting I was wearing them, that's how light they were. 10/10 recommend
