Frequently Asked Questions

We know, right? It’s partly because of the clever construction of our women's cargo shorts, partly because of the first-rate fabric blend and partly because it supports your body without feeling constricting. Plus, IT HAS A POCKET.

They're both! 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.

The pocket is made of the exact same fabric as the shorts, and sewn in with a flat seam that sits flush against your body. No added bulk aside from the treasures you decide to stash in it.

Type 1 Diabetic (T1D)

I totally agree with the lady who wrote that she hoped for 2 pockets. I do the same thing and wear mine backwards too. The pump has to be close to where your site is, left/right side of body. I still love them, I’m also hoping a second pocket would be added. You should be targeting the diabetic community with these, they make it soooo much easier to wear a pump with dresses, overalls, etc. with the cargo underneath. Thank you for 1 pocket, but 2 would be AWESOME!

Need 2 pockets!

I bought these a couple years ago and came back for another pair. I have loved them but was hoping a second pocket would be added by now. I have type 1 diabetes and use the pocket for my insulin pump. I wear my current pair backward when my pump is on the other side. Please add 2 pockets!!

Cargo shorts

I love being able to wear these under summer dresses so I have a pocket for my phone, and no more sweaty or chafing inner thighs!

Cargo thigh 5”

I recently purchased the cargo shorts.
I wore them under a summer dress and was pleasantly surprised with the fit being snug without being too compressed. They moved with my body and no wedgies. They kept me cool and comfortable all day. Love them.

I got two pairs to try them out and I need to immediately buy more. I’ve found my new summer staple!
