Frequently Asked Questions

We know, right? It’s partly because of the clever construction, partly because of the first-rate fabric blend, and partly because it supports your body without feeling constricting.

They're both! We’re glad you asked. Think of them as a combination between an old-school slip, a boxer brief and biker shorts: 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.

Super stupid purchase!

So bummed that these turned out to be such a stupid purchase.. material is soft but unfortunately they would not stay up and skirts stuck to them and crawled & because this company does not offer any level customer service support with a return policy I ended up donating to Goodwill... You can find better on Amazon trust me!!!

Was pretty disappointed considering most of the other reviews were raving about these, but they totally rode up almost immediately, which obviously makes the anti-chafing useless. Maybe I should've sized down even farther but I did think I was already buying on the smaller end (Bought a Sm/M, my measurements are 35-waist 42-hip and 26 around the largest part of my thigh in inches)

Definitely buy smaller

I got mine and sadly it’s too big and rides up. Just like any other under shorts. I was hoping for a better fit.

Most comfortable high quality thigh protection

Most comfortable high quality thigh protection. Fabric is light and airy very breathable when I wore my dress outside I was so comfortable. It’s almost like I didn’t have them on, but yet I did and so I had the comfort of protection for my skin and nobody could see through my dress if they did, they saw these thigh Society undergarment it looks like by chores. It was just very comfortable. Would highly recommend these. It doesn’t matter if you are a plus size gal or normal size gal or whatever body shape gal these work for everyone.

Comfortable

They are very comfortable. Loved wearing them under my dresses. Only wish they had a little more support.
