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.

Medium pants = X/XL thigh society

I lost a lot of weight and now wear size medium pants. So I ordered 3 pair of M/L. They are too tight and barely pull to my waist, so they tend to slide down.

Just got some X/XL’s. They are great with length from crotch to waist; they stay put now. But they are still a bit snug.

Some darn good shorts

Very comfy even after a day in the sun, on a farm, on a bike, and just generally playing outside.

Breathable Comfort

Best biker shorts I have ever owned. I have very large thighs and they dont pinch or create any bulges on my thighs. They offer great coverage and can be worn alone or as a slip. The fabric is soft and thin, but good quality.
