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.

They’re 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.

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.

One size too big

Comfortable enough for me to wear them under dresses. I didn’t buy the correct size. It sucks that you can’t make exchanges.

Nice!

These felt great under my yoga pants. They don’t roll down under my belly, which has been an issue with other boxer type undies. Just all around comfortable.

Way too small

Based on the fit guidelines, I purchased a size xs/s. I was surprised (and disappointed, due to there being no option to return) when they arrived and they were much too tight on waistband and around thighs.

I was able to negotiate a replacement pair in size s/m, however, that was several weeks ago and I have yet to receive the order.

So far, I’m not super impressed by Thigh Society’s policies… I’ll post an update if things change for the better.

Cool and comfy

I live in Miami where it’s very hot and humid, and these shorts are SO comfortable that I forget that I am wearing them. They are a game changer - I’m so glad I purchased them!
