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.

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.

Most comfortable underwear I own.

I will admit, I was seriously skeptical, but I won't wear anything else now that I have tried them! I will admit, I do order a size below what it recommends and they still fit great!

I’ve been looking for these for years!

These are exactly what I’ve been looking for! A beautiful color and an outstanding fit! Just what I need to “pull it all together” underneath pants, skirt, or dress. Will definitely be ordering from Thigh Society again.

It's like they aren't there!

Have the original, cargo, & cotton. They are exactly as advertised. I was nervous about the sizing, but was pleasantly surprised how they fit. The feel is amazing, you don't really feel anything at all. Make sure to read the description as the different styles have different sheerness. There are so.e that are slightly see through. I originally thought they were a little expensive, but find them well worth the money. Plus there are frequent discount codes if you sign up for the email notifications. They are worth the money. Mine are washed frequently and so far hold up very well (follow the washing instructions). There are a few negative reviews that I find are based on some not reading the descriptions & others just being overly picky. I'm so happy I found these & plan on continuing to purchase more for my daughter & myself.
