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.

So great!

Better than expected — perfect fit, snug and supportive yet somehow not synthetic-feeling and sweat-inducing. Big fan.

Great!

So far so good. Getting a second, shorter pair for shorter dresses.

Great under dresses and skirts!

All of your thigh highs are great! I have numerous of each and could not be more pleased. They are great under skirts and dresses.

comfy and can wear as shorts

I feel sad when these are in the laundry because I find myself wanting to wear them all the time. Cute color, comfortable, opaque so I can wear them by themselves. They roll up a little on the legs after all day wear but not enough to really notice. Would recommend.

Just what I was looking for!

I loved these so much that I bought two more. Perfectly comfortable, excellent for when I wear sundresses. I’m 5’9”, 165 lb and the M/L are a perfect fit. They don’t constrict, but they also don’t ride down.
