The Staple short is versatile for all life stages and so ultra-stretchy that it can even be worn through maternity and postpartum. The Staple slip short offers buttery-soft comfort with light support from early pregnancy to chasing after your toddler and beyond. Grab your regular size for the first trimester, size up for your second and third, and use either (or both!) when your bun is out of the oven.

“They’re incredibly versatile: They come in multiple lengths, sizes, and colors, and I can wear them for more coverage, a smoother look under skirts, or on their own for sleeping or lounging around the house.”

“They give me a smooth, clean line and work well with both fitted and roomy skirts and dresses — and since they're breathable, I won't overheat even on those days when the air feels like a blanket of humidity.”

“Today, Thigh Society leads a category of products it invented.”

“An incredibly lightweight and breathable base layer, these shorts physically prevent the skin of your thighs from ever actually making contact.”

“They may look like a shapewear short, but they don’t act as shapewear, and definitely don’t fit snug like shapewear.”

“As soon as I put on the anti-chafing shorts, I immediately knew they’d be a game changer.”

“Thigh Society allows you the freedom to wear what you want and being comfortable in your own skin.”

I love that they fit all throughout the pregnancy and were perfect under sundresses and even great as super comfy shorts to wear to bed or around the house.

I spent months trying different leggings and maternity options and nothing has been as comfortable as these shorts. They stay perfectly in place, are a great breathable material, prevent any chafing.

FAQs

These are buttery soft and stretch to twice their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect to accommodate a growing belly—and other body changes 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.
