The Staple

Frequently Asked Questions

These are downy soft and super stretchy, which makes them sort of irresistibly versatile—in other words, they’re so multifaceted, they could win an EGOT. (You know how magazines are always talking about “day to night” clothing? This is actually it.)

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are buttery soft and stretch to twice their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect to accommodate a growing belly during pregnancy and beyond.

Thigh Society shorties are totally bump-friendly — they don’t compress you or suck you in like shapewear. Instead, they’re a lightly smoothing, 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, and is designed to stay in place without rolling down. The waistband is like the Loch Ness Monster: you’ll doubt it really exists.

Our shorts stretch up to 2x their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect for your pre-and-post-partum journey. We recommend sticking with your regular size for the first trimester, and sizing up for the second and third. Then you can continue wearing both once your baby is here!

Our shorts are made from the highest quality yarns that are soft and silky-smooth against the skin — even surgical scars. The Staple short acts as a light barrier, helping protect scars and stitches from snagging against your clothes.

Absolutely perfect!

Everything else I’ve tried to wear under my dresses either roll or ride up, or cause visible lines. These are so soft and comfortable and didn’t ride or roll one bit. I plan to order a few more to have on hand. They’re perfect!

Staple and cooling

These are great but the sizing is difficult. I am 5’7” 140 lbs, 15% body fat, 27” waists 39” hip and athletic legs, the S/M cut into my thighs at the leg opening in a very unflattering way. I had to size up to ML which fit great and the company graciously sent me free of charge. Good quality, great colors, great customer service so I’m happy overall.

I'm now in thigh heaven!

Wow, I can't say enough about these thigh shorts. I just found the sight and decided to give them a try. I purchased the staple and since it's now Fall season, I was gonna just wait until next Spring or Summer to ware them. I couldn't wait, I wore them this past weekend on a beach trip and absolutely love them. OMG, no thigh chub rub or crotch and thigh sweat. They feel like butter on my skin. I'm 5.5" and got the 9" leg length, perfect for me. I have purchased other brands that did not live up to the cause of rescuing my thighs. I will be 65 next month, my thighs have suffered long enough, free at last! Thank you so much!
