Frequently Asked Questions

We know, right? It’s partly because of the clever construction of our women's cargo shorts, partly because of the first-rate fabric blend and partly because it supports your body without feeling constricting. Plus, IT HAS A POCKET.

They're both! 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 pocket is made of the exact same fabric as the shorts, and sewn in with a flat seam that sits flush against your body. No added bulk aside from the treasures you decide to stash in it.

My go-to underwear for golf

Just the perfect "opaqueness" for wearing by themselves under golf dresses. Wish they came in brighter colors. The different beige hues give them too much of an underwear look. The brighter colors truly look like shorts-great for golf

Stays put

I bought these to have a pair of shorts that stay put on my walks. They do the job. I have the black and they are not see through at all. They also don’t feel itchy or sticky. Would buy another pair for sure.

Comfortable bike shorts

Shorts fit as expected and I find them extremely comfortable. I bought the M/L and I usually am a size 12 in pants. One comment -would love 2 pockets instead of just one and more colors. Would buy again

Love them, so comfy!

I have had the cargo in size M/L, inseam 7, for 1-2 years now and I really like them. They are great to wear under dresses or flowy pants to prevent chaffing. They don't offer any kind of compression, but still manage to stay in place, which I really like. I just wish the material was a bit more breathable.
