Frequently Asked Questions

Well, to start, they’re silky smooth under any outfit. But more importantly, if you run hot—and are one of those people who’s constantly setting the thermostat to “meat locker” temperature—these are going to be a revelation.

Our slip shorts are made of hi-tech fabric that lowers the body temperature. (If you want to get geeky about it, the flat cross-section of the yarn offers a wide surface area that quickly releases body heat from your skin.) The yarn texturizing process gives the shorts incredible breathability; the finished ultra-thin fabric is a breeze to wear, literally.

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.

Our sheer leggings offer the moisture-wicking and cooling experience of our shorts with more leg coverage.

Miracle Shorts!

These shorts were amazing in 100 degree weather while walking miles, up and down steps all over Italy under my sun dress. I could not believe that I was cool and had zero chaffing! I was a doubter, but now I am a believer. Amazing product, easy to wash and dry on my trip. So comfortable! It should be a staple in every woman’s wardrobe!

Thin, don’t roll down or up! 4.5 stars

These shorts have given me joy in dressing in the hot weather. No more creams, rashes or heavy bike shorts. Taking off part of a star because they are a bit noisy when I walk, the seams around the bottom of the thighs swish when they touch, which is every step I take (re: why I buy these in the first place). Also, they hold their shape and last! I have some original thigh society shorts that are probably 5 or 6 years old.
