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.

They're both! We’re glad you asked. Think of them as a combination between an old-school slip, a boxer brief and a biker shorts: 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.

Smooth and unbinding

I don’t need a body shaper or pockets in my undergarments, but I do need a smooth layer under my dress that won’t expose anything if the wind blows. I also like them under leggings. I just wish they could keep the Original in stock in the neutral shades. I’d like to buy a few more.

What took me so long!

I recently tried the original along with a few other styles after seeing them online for years. Out of all the styles these are my fav. Material is durable yet breathable with unbelievable stretch. Perfect for under dresses in the California heat!
