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.

The Best!

I love these 9" pocket slip shorts!!
I've worn them several times (with a pad) and they remain fresh! No rolling up, or down- they just feel like I'm not wearing anything! I'm purchasing more- soon!

Fits to size!

I bought several different styles to try as I hadn’t tried Thigh Society before. I will definitely be buying more! They were comfy. They didn’t roll down in the waist or up on my leg. I’m 5’4” and thé 9 inch leg goes almost to my knee. Ok with the dress I wore last night but I’m glad I bought some 7 inch pairs as well!

Pocket! Runs large

I loove these for under shorter skirts and being able to have my phone in the pocket for quick access and I like the thickness of the material but they run a bit large in the waist.
