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.

Definitely a keeper!

Very comfortable, washes great. Bought the original to wear under a dress. And I don't wear a dress very often. So they made it so much more comfortable than a slip. Delivery was quick and the website was very easy to track the shipment. I would recommend these.

Undershorts are my new slip!

I'm a 65-year-old who grew up in the era of slips. Thigh Society undershorts are my alternative to slips! I have every color, 7" through 12", and 2 pairs of longer undershorts for my silk pants. My favorites are cooling for April through October, and the original for the winter months. I size up because I am long-waisted.

I WEAR THESE EVERY DAY

Moved to the Caribbean these are amazing for under flowy skirts and (Cooling shorts) with loose pants. My thighs love me and I don't hate walking around in 110degree humidity (as much) anymore!!

Excellent Quality

I love them and I will be ordering more. They are very comfortable. I wear them as shorts and for working out. The material is very soft on the skin.

You know that feeling when you’re hot and damp from the shower or workout and putting on any kind of leggings, shorts or other form fitting under where is best avoided? These are not that. 😎
