The Staple

Frequently Asked Questions

These lounge shorts 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.

The Staple (maternity-friendly)

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.

Comfort & control

I really love these comfortable 5” shapewear shorts. I’m petite and the ‘normal’ lengths are too long. I want more!!!

Love but..

These are, in my opinion, the best version out of all the ones they currently sell. The only issue I had is that the sizing was not consistent when buying different lengths of the same size. The 9 was perfect but the 7 the waist is smaller and then even smaller on the 5. I can still get away with wearing them but it is just not ideal as they are a bit tight to the point that overall I'd prefer a bigger size and the waist should not have changed just the length. I did measure myself and follow the size guide. It's likely I will not wear the others in the end come summer unfortunately but I will with the 9 for sure. I should have tried all three when I got them not just one but I foolishly assumed they were the same.

5” Staple

I really like the staple. I ordered it in 5” length but I will try longer next time as they do creep up my legs.

This is the holy grail of underwear

All I wanted was no VPL, full coverage for my rear, no wedgies, all day comfort (shapewear gets uncomfortable after a few hours) and ThighSociety delivered!! I think I have been searching for this all my adult life. Can you tell I am a convert?! Seriously, these are great for all the reasons above.

I love wearing these under my dresses. They are so comfy and cool! Great for summer.
My size is out of stock so I am waiting to buy more.
