Frequently Asked Questions

Well, to start, they’re silky smooth under any outfit. But more importantly, if you run hot—and are one of those people who’s constantly setting the thermostat to “meat locker” temperature—these are going to be a revelation.

They’re made of hi-tech fabric that lowers the body temperature. (If you want to get geeky about it, the flat cross-section of the yarn offers a wide surface area that quickly releases body heat from your skin.) The yarn texturizing process gives the shorts incredible breathability; the finished ultra-thin fabric is a breeze to wear, literally.

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.

Very Comfy

I thought these were expensive for non compression “shapers” but they really are comfortable, well made and worth the price. I sized up and didn’t need to and I’m not a slim girl. These are lightweight and vèry comfortable, not hot at all. I’m quite pleased.

Like em, but they do roll up

The cooling short is very comfortable. I have no issues with the waistband rolling and the butt/crotch doesn't sag, but they 100% roll up the thigh. You don't actually realize it, so it's not annoying, but all of a sudden you'll know...they've turned themselves into a boy short and you need to pull them down.
Even so, I keep wearing them.

Still roll up

I was hopeful when I bought these that there was finally a pant to wear under dresses that didn’t roll up. I wear a size 6 and bought the S/M and I think they run small and still roll up on my thighs.

The fabric is very comfortable but still tight around legs If you’re younger and have firm thighs then you will probably love them.

does provide comfort for chafing but not for shorts and no returns.

I bought 2 of the cooling (5" & 7") and 1 of the Staple cotton (5"). The product is fine and it does provide less chafing. However, it did not feel comfortable under shorts and that's the primary reason I got them. I don't wear dresses or skirts. I think that's why the brand emphasizes dresses and skirts and does not mention or have pics of their product with shorts. Their shortest version 5" still showed a little bit under my shorts. Also, be aware of their return policy. There are no returns. Their clothing is considered undergarments. I wanted to love these but it didn't work for my needs.

Not the one for you?
