Frequently Asked Questions

Well, to start, they’re silky smooth under any outfit. But more importantly, if you run hot—and are one of those people who’s constantly setting the thermostat to “meat locker” temperature—these are going to be a revelation.

Our slip shorts are made of hi-tech fabric that lowers the body temperature. (If you want to get geeky about it, the flat cross-section of the yarn offers a wide surface area that quickly releases body heat from your skin.) The yarn texturizing process gives the shorts incredible breathability; the finished ultra-thin fabric is a breeze to wear, literally.

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.

Our sheer leggings offer the moisture-wicking and cooling experience of our shorts with more leg coverage.

My slip is very comfortable, but my dresses cling to them when walking. Any solution? This is why bought them, to wear under my summer dresses.

Great product

The fit was great I purchased a L/XL for my wife. She said she will definitely be buying more of these, she loved the fit,cooling,and no chub rub from her thighs. I got her one pair because of the price, but after seeing how comfortable she was I will be getting her more.

Why did I wait so long?

I've been seeing your ads on Facebook for a few years, but was hesitant to buy something online. After numerous failed attempts to find anti-chafing shorts that didn't ride up, I finally took a chance on Thigh Society. Really wish I'd done it years ago and stopped wearing my vintage '90s biking shorts. Your shorts fit like second skin and DON'T RIDE UP. Unlike my old black biking shorts, I can now wear light-colored skirts and dresses. Thank you for creating such a necessary product for millions of women whose thighs no longer (naturally) separate.

Soft material and works great under clothing.

I originally bought two pairs in light colors. They worked so well under my uniform pants that I bought two more. They kept me cool and dry all day. I wish they came in 3 inch to wear more comfortable under shorts. I would buy 5 more pairs in 3 inch!
