The Staple

Frequently Asked Questions

These are downy soft and super stretchy, which makes them sort of irresistibly versatile—in other words, they’re so multifaceted, they could win an EGOT. (You know how magazines are always talking about “day to night” clothing? This is actually it.)

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are buttery soft and stretch to twice their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect to accommodate a growing belly during pregnancy and beyond.

Thigh Society shorties are totally bump-friendly — they don’t compress you or suck you in like shapewear. Instead, they’re a lightly smoothing, 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, and is designed to stay in place without rolling down. The waistband is like the Loch Ness Monster: you’ll doubt it really exists.

Our shorts stretch up to 2x their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect for your pre-and-post-partum journey. We recommend sticking with your regular size for the first trimester, and sizing up for the second and third. Then you can continue wearing both once your baby is here!

Our shorts are made from the highest quality yarns that are soft and silky-smooth against the skin — even surgical scars. The Staple short acts as a light barrier, helping protect scars and stitches from snagging against your clothes.

Worth every penny!

Attention thick-thigh girlies! These shorts are for you!
I wore these on my wedding day and they were absolutely perfect! I wasn’t looking for shape-wear, just something to prevent my thighs from chaffing. Not only did they do that, these shorts did not ride up or down. I was so impressed! Once I put them on, I completely forgot that I was wearing them. Incredibly comfortable, breathable and secure. Didn’t have to adjust one time! 10/10 & looking for an excuse to purchase again!
*note- if you’re looking for compression and lift, try another style for true shape-wear*.

Very happy

I’m a very young and fit 76 year old woman . I wear dresses all summer which prompted me to purchase a pair of slip shorts. They were just as promised… so soft and almost weightless while at the same time giving me that bit of extra foundation that made me feel put together and secure. I am 5’4” tall and weigh 160 I purchased 7” s/m in the beautiful rosette color and they hit my leg at the perfect place. They are not tight at all no binding elastic, and there is no struggling to get them on like spanx! I just love them. Don’t hesitate to purchase you won’t be sorry. PS I would love if you would make a spaghetti strap 7” bodysuit!

Where have you been all my life

I have a job where I am always moving and getting sweaty. I never could wear short skirts because of having to bend over a lot but now I can and wear these almost everyday. So comfortable too.
