Frequently Asked Questions

These lounge shorts 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.)

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are buttery soft and stretch to twice their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect to accommodate a growing belly during pregnancy and beyond.

Thigh Society shorties are totally bump-friendly — they don’t compress you or suck you in like shapewear. Instead, they’re a lightly smoothing, 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, and is designed to stay in place without rolling down. The waistband is like the Loch Ness Monster: you’ll doubt it really exists.

Our shorts stretch up to 2x their size without bagging or sagging, making them perfect for your pre-and-post-partum journey. We recommend sticking with your regular size for the first trimester, and sizing up for the second and third. Then you can continue wearing both once your baby is here!

Our shorts are made from the highest quality yarns that are soft and silky-smooth against the skin — even surgical scars. The Staple short acts as a light barrier, helping protect scars and stitches from snagging against your clothes.

I am Extremely Happy

I have never encountered such comfort and coolness in women's underwear. Other brands I have tried promised to wick moisture and fit comfortably, but failed. The thing I have repeatedly encountered is either the waistband rolling down, or the hems of the legs riding up or rolling up. These are so amazingly comfy that I ordered three more pairs so I can live in them round the clock. Five stars! I wish I could give ten.

Amazing!

These are amazing!! They’re not uncomfortable, snug but not too tight or loose. Very lightweight (great for the heat) and definitely helps with chafing as well as a great option to wear under something see through. My only thing was whenever I sat down and got up to walk or move about multiple times a day they would somewhat roll a tiny amount so I’d have to adjust them to make them help stop chafing, but if I would just walk or move without sitting they were just fine. Definitely would recommend these!!

All but one thing

I really like my thigh society purchase. I like how thin they are so as not to get too hot. And they really help my thighs! However, they do ride up on my legs all day. I would like some silicone around leg seam at bottom so they would stay put! Thank you

Changes the summer dress

I am happy to find thigh society. These shorts don’t ride up. They stay put and make wearing dresses in the summer so much more comfortable. Have purchased several pairs in the different styles to try them out. These are nice and soft and comfortable.
