Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Staple feel so good?

These are downy soft and super stretchy, which makes them sort of irresistibly versatile—in other words, they’re so multifaceted, they could win an EGOT. (You know how magazines are always talking about “day to night” clothing? This is actually it.)

What's a slip short?

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.

Are they shapewear?

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.

What's the waistband like?

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.

The Staple is very useful and comfy!

The 9" staple slip short is awesome. It adds some coverage for short skirts and some warmth for colder days. I can also use it instead of a slip when I want a slippery element under a skirt or dress. It absolutely does not roll (the 5" did, unfortunately) and I will be ordering more colors. Love it!

best maternity purchase

I never write reviews but I want everyone to know how fantastic these shorts are. I spent months trying different leggings and maternity options and nothing has been as comfortable as these shorts. I have thick thighs that all shorts tend to ride up on, but not these! They stay perfectly in place, are a great breathable material, prevent any chafing. I am typically a Large in bottoms, but I sized up due to being very pregnant and the XL/2XL fit me perfectly. I bought the original, the cotton and the staple, and I truly love all of them.

The staple

So far, so good. I've worn them a couple of times and the legs don't roll/bunch up. What a switch from other brands, where after the first wear they roll down and bunch up. Not with thigh society! Thanks for this and I will be ordering another pair.
