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.

Beyond love these

I can't say enough good things about them. They are cooling, perfect length and I felt so good wearing them. No ride up and feel refreshed in them as well. Going to get a second pair soon.

Easily influenced, lives up to hype

NGL, I am easily influenced. So when I was inundated with ads on TT and IG, I figured I would give it a shot to get me through these hot Souther summer months in my second trimester.

Currently 27 weeks pregnant, I popped these out of the bag this AM to pair with my maxi skirt to wear to an amusement park. Already indoors in AC, I can feel the cooling factor. As I write this review I haven’t worn them all day and not during the hot day at the park, but I’m already sold and optimistic about their performance!

At 27 weeks I did buy my regular size and have no regrets or fear that they won’t get me through the rest of the pregnancy if I continue to grow! I also bought the 9” since I do have some thick thighs and was concerned about ride up. So far they’re clinging to right above my knees but not digging. I’m in love. 😍

Love!

These are perfect for under skirts and dresses! They’re not tight and prevent chafing. I love them

I've yet to test the coolness of the cooling, but they're very comfortable! I look forward to test them when I go back East in a couple of weeks!
