The British Thong Society: Merry Christmas

The British Thong Society was established in 1912 by Sir Henry Peel, who during his travels in the East, discovered the real and practical benefits of wearing the G string. The society soon had a select membership which included H.G. Wells, George Bernard Shaw, and polar explorer Captain Scott. Over the years, the Society has run events promoting thong wearing across the UK and in 1988 played host to the Duke of Edinburgh at the Society’s club in London.

The Society continues its activities, many of which are charitable and help the underprivileged. We donate over 3000 thongs to the poor each year and have recently opened offices in New York and Los Angeles, hoping to export our message across the globe.

Our Founder

Sir Henry Peel was one of the greatest minds of the late Victorian age. He was an explorer, discovering some of the remotest tribes of South America, and travelled widely in the East, including China and Japan where he was one of the earliest Europeans to adopt the wearing of the fundoshi.

Returning to England, Sir Henry became a philanthropist, eventually setting up The British Thong Society.

His death in 1927 was one of the widely reported events of the decade. Each year at the small family church in Knots End, Surrey, members of the British Thong Society lay a commemorative thong on his grave to mark the very great things Sir Henry achieved and our abiding loyalty to his legacy.
