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.

Disappointed

I purchased these along with a pair of the cooling shorts. I loved the cooling ones, but not these. First, I did size up, and that was a huge mistake because these are humongous. They fall down and drop down below the tops of my knees when I wear them. They’re also thick and hot. I should’ve just stuck with the Old Navy running shorts I was wearing under my dresses. They weren’t as thick as this. Sadly, they can’t be returned. Since they were expensive, I will probably keep them to wear under longer dresses in the winter time, but for summer, they are a huge, no.

Amazing

I had debated if the price of these was worth it compared to dupes. It is. They work perfectly. Wore them non stop to extend the length of fashionable but short shorts, under skirts for protection, and even under baggy pants to help with the chub rub. They’re everything they say they are. I did notice they rolled up a little when I ran, but they’re not advertised for any crazy exercise, and they stayed in place wonderfully over days on end of 10k+ steps. I will say personally that I enjoyed having the opaque version for short skirts where you need real coverage, but personally I felt uncomfortable wearing them on their own, despite the advertising that says you can. They only had one pocket, which was surprising to me, but I’m sure was in the listing. BIG NOTE! I had to measure on the size chart because I was unsure, the other reviews are right, order down, I was semi in between on the size chart, and it said size down so I did and I’m so glad I did. Also the 7in is perfect for bigger bodies in my opinion the shorter one would feel too short on me.

OMG! Why did I wait so long to try these?!

These are so comfortable and so much lighter weight than bike shorts- which is what I usually wear under dresses. Also they don’t digging into my tummy and make me uncomfortable. I do wish there were pockets on both sides. That would be an improvement. But they are excellent otherwise.. 10 out of 5 stars.
