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.

Wish I would have bought it sooner

A friend told me about Thigh Society and I bought two pairs the next day. I had a few formal functions within a few weeks and was so happy I had them! I think I might be a dress girl again! No chafing, no rolling, just comfort!!!

Great for travel

I bought 2 more Cooling 9” for my trip this summer to the Netherlands. It was very very hot and these were amazing. Perfect for under my dress but also for pants-thought they’d be too hot, but they are so comfortable. Great for the airplane, too. And they dry overnight after washing and patting dry! I could have brought just these 2 pair. My older pair, however, is showing loose threads along the waistband. But these are fantastic for travel. Bought L/XL, 5’6”, 158lbs

Best purchase I ever made!

In recent years I've gained a few pounds and the chafing got so bad that I couldn't wear anything but pants in the summer. I tried cheaper shorts found on Amazon but they were always riding up, they were useless. I hesitated to get these because of the price, but they're worth every penny! No riding up, no heavy sweat, can barely feel them. I definitely recommend the cooling shorts!!
