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.

So comfortable

I love these cooling shorts! They are exactly what I was looking for, for under summer dresses! I have IBS, so it’s really hard for me to have anything touch my stomach. I am a size 12 pants, but I actually ordered a 3XL shorts, so the short’s high waist doesn’t give any compression on my stomach, but the legs still keep my thighs from chafing!! I’m traveling a lot this summer and I plan to just pack sun dresses and these shorts!! I have been washing them out at night and they are dry by the next day! Thank you for the great customer service at the start when I was figuring out my size! I have recommended these to my friends!

Comfortable and cooling

Have purchased to wear under dresses in the summer and so far, they are perfect and do exactly what they advertise. Very happy and have already purchased again. I have four pairs now.

So soft and light and work to stop thigh rub. I won’t go a summer without these cooling shorts under my dresses/skirts.

Fantastic

Love these! I wore them when we we to Italy at the start of May. I wore them every day. Under dresses, shorts and pants. I didn’t get all sweaty, no chafing and absolutely comfy! When i got home I bought more. My daughter and friend got some too. Now they are enjoying them also!

You won't be disappointed!

So comfy, they don't bite in to my stomach, they don't roll up. Nobody can tell I'm wearing them, but I'm soooo much happier wearing dresses and skirts now that my thighs aren't sticking together with every sweaty step. I got my teenage daughter some, too, and she's obsessed with them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
