Frequently Asked Questions

Our cotton shorts are made of a mix of Pima—the champagne of cottons, which is extra-soft and extra-durable—and modal, a natural fiber that's resistant to shrinkage and pilling. Together, they create a texture that’s as luxurious and velvety as a Sade song.

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.

Very comfortable! Worn under a dress they are perfect for a smooth fit and no rubbing. Forgot I was wearing them because they are so sheer. I’m glad they are not compession.

No refunds or exchanges

I sized up, and still the thigh seam was uncomfortably tight. I reached out to customer service to find they don’t offer refunds or exchanges. They were going to make an “exception” if I sent back any unopened pairs and that I’d be responsible for the shipping cost. This policy is a bit buried in the website, so PSA.

Brilliant Product!

For years I have suffered with my thighs rubbing together. I was so happy to see these lovely shorts on Instagram and had to try them. I now have 6 pairs and am all set! Yes I got a bit carried away 😊 Now I can wear a dress every day if I want to and be perfectly comfortable. I wear size 14 pants but wanted to make sure the shorts wouldn’t be too snug so I bought L/XL. Very happy, they fit perfectly!

Tropical win

I purchased these for a trip to Costa Rica. As I wanted to wear only dresses, I was concerned about chafing in the hot humid temperatures. They were perfect. They kept me from chafing. And they did not feel warm. Unlike other under dress shorts that caused me to feel overheated. I found the L/XL to fit me perfectly (the XL/1X were roomy) and had no issues with rolling up or discomfort. I wear a size 16 jean.
