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.

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.

So comfortable

As a teacher that loves to wear dresses but has to sit on the ground a lot, these have been a game changer. I used to only wear maxi dresses but now I feel comfortable wearing shorter dresses with these and they are so comfortable.

Works Well Inside Out

I was worried about the seams before purchasing these shorts, and my fears were not unfounded (regardless of the advertising claims to the contrary) and the shorts were very uncomfortable to wear. However, turning them inside out, solved that problem and I'm happy to report that I've been able to wear them without any problems this way.

Wonderfully Comfortable

Love the colours, high waist and comfort. Would buy even more if there was a medium support choice.
