The Original

$45

These super-versatile, velvety-soft wonders give off biker short vibes and are opaque, so they can be layered under clothes or worn alone. Like The Cargo, but without the pocket.

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.

Changed my life

I decided to take a chance on Thigh Society a couple years ago. Before ordering the Original, I had been using cheap leggings with the legs cut off (really). I wear these under EVERYTHING! They've changed the game when it comes to wearing dresses. And they're thick enough that you can wear them by themselves as shorts and they're not see-through. I wear them for everything. They kept me cool and dry all day at an Indycar race in Iowa in July! I have the Original in both 5" and 7", and the Cooling in 5". I love them all! Next I think I'm going to get the Cargo because I would love to have a pocket.

So comfy

I have 3 pairs of the original. These are the only super comfy shorts I own. They are sized correctly and don't ride up or down, even during intense workouts.

I have many many versions of your shorts and I just had abdominal surgery and bought the Original because I wanted that hold, but they really are very stiff and heavy. I didn't remember them being that heavy. They will be fine for this purpose but after that I think they have to be retired! my bad!

Love these

These are so soft and comfortable, no more tight elastic or underwear riding up your bum. Great to sleep in too!
