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'll start with the positives...the material is soft and the waistband is wide so it is not binding. Unfortunately, I ordered these for post hernia surgery comfort. I found the legs to be uncomfortable. My friend swears by these and I was so hopeful that I may have found the answer to years of uncomfortable panties.

Love these but want full length

I have 3 of the cargos as well as several cooling pairs. Absolutely love them! The cooling ones are like wearing nothing at all under my dresses - but without the chub rub! I wish the cargos came in more lengths to wear as leggings. I wear them to the gym and on walks as shorts. Now just need them in 3/4 and full length.

Cargo 5" Shorty

I've told everyone about this cargo. It stays in place. Perfect under a dress or for a workout. The pocket for my phone is brilliant. Thank you for creating this version as it's now my new fave thigh society short.

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
