Frequently Asked Questions

We know, right? It’s partly because of the clever construction of our women's cargo shorts, partly because of the first-rate fabric blend and partly because it supports your body without feeling constricting. Plus, IT HAS A POCKET.

They're both! 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.

The pocket is made of the exact same fabric as the shorts, and sewn in with a flat seam that sits flush against your body. No added bulk aside from the treasures you decide to stash in it.

As advertised - - I'm a happy wearer

I've tried a wide range of bike-style 'slip shorts', long boy-shorts, or whatever you want to call them. Unlike most, these actually stay in place. I don't have to tug them up or pull them down. I got the pair with the phone pocket - but I'm left handed and the pocket is on the right. Time to become ambidextrous. I would buy a collection of them - - slowly because the price is a bit steep (and worth it).

Great for under dresses while traveling

I hate to carry a purse but need my phone for photos, etc... These are great for under dresses as they have the pocket to keep your phone in and readily available but not out in the open for pickpockets. Use these while traveling. The legs tend to ride up sometimes, other than that they are comfortable.

Ok

Love the longer length, they didn't roll up! The pocket is great. Didn't fit well in the upper leg area - maybe I needed a different size? Fabric wasn't comfortable for me to wear without undies. The Cooling and Staple are a much better fit for me!

Amazing

I had debated if the price of these was worth it compared to dupes. It is. They work perfectly. Wore them non stop to extend the length of fashionable but short shorts, under skirts for protection, and even under baggy pants to help with the chub rub. They’re everything they say they are. I did notice they rolled up a little when I ran, but they’re not advertised for any crazy exercise, and they stayed in place wonderfully over days on end of 10k+ steps. I will say personally that I enjoyed having the opaque version for short skirts where you need real coverage, but personally I felt uncomfortable wearing them on their own, despite the advertising that says you can. They only had one pocket, which was surprising to me, but I’m sure was in the listing. BIG NOTE! I had to measure on the size chart because I was unsure, the other reviews are right, order down, I was semi in between on the size chart, and it said size down so I did and I’m so glad I did. Also the 7in is perfect for bigger bodies in my opinion the shorter one would feel too short on me.

Not the one for you?
