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.

Best biker shorts I’ve found

I LOVE these. Buttery soft, super stretchy and comfy. Substantial enough to wear on their own, but lightweight enough to wear under skirts and dresses. And they really don’t ride up!! I have pretty thick thighs so I was nervous about that, but they were just right.

The Best

OMG, I tried this only once and I was blown away. This is probably the first short which I felt were DAMN comfortable, that pocket is like cherry on the top. I received this as a replacement for my previous order, which I didn't expect at all. Their Customer service is superb. thank you thighsociety.

Cargo Shorts

Trying these cargo shorts for the first time. They are light weight, full coverage, fit well, are very comfortable to wear and I love the pocket! I ordered M/L. I normally wear a size 12 pant. Will order again! Don't hesitate to give them a try!

Comfortable Alternative!

I love wearing bike shorts (with pockets) especially in the summer, but I must have a pocket for my phone. As Huug says, these are way less bulky and tight around the waist than traditional bike shorts. My only gripe is that the pocket is on the right side and I want it in the left. I wish they had just put in two pockets because they lie nicely flat anyway.

If I ordered again, I’d probably get a 7” pair instead of the 9” since they are so stretchy it seems they are too long and there is extra material. As mentioned, they are plenty opaque to wear out of the house, which I did. I ordered XL/2XL, am 5’7”, weight 215.
