YouloveitWomen's Waist Trainer Corset for Everyday Wear Steel Boned Tummy Control Body Shaper with Adjustable Hooks

Having a to suck in your stomach sucks so wearing this really holds in most of your stomach together giving you a more slender look. Does affect your amount of food and drink intake. Having it on for too long leaves your skin red and rashy. Attempt to do workouts with it on and if it breaks it starts to stab and pinch skin and will leave a temporary mark and if u wear another one will not help heal it. Its very durable overall but i work 10 hour shifts unloading trailers which include bending down and stretching up for heavy boxes and these last a month or two before breaking.

I was unsure how it would fit and I still think I might go down a size but I love this. It’s quite comfortable and snug but definitely breathes. And I can feel it snatching me in. Will order in the nude color as well.

There is no way this is a 4X. It fits more like an XL or maybe a 2 X. I won’t be returning it though because I had to pay shipping to get it to me and I doubt that I would get that part back so I guess I’m stuck with it.

This may be a lengthy review, but I wanted to be a thorough as possible. I ordered this trainer because I'm losing weight and I want something to wear under my clothes to feel more confident while I am still trying to get down to the size I am aiming for. All that said, let's get into the details (fit, pros, and cons). First, the fit: I ordered the 3x. Based on the size chart, I could have ordered a 2x, but because my waist measurement was on the upper end of the 2x sizing, I went with the 3x to be safe. I'm glad I did too, because even though the 2x may have fit, it would have been EXTREMELY tight. Overall, I'm pleased with the fit. I was able to put it on the 1st hook (a bit of a strugglebut I got it on), and hopefully can go back from there as I continue to lose. It's compressive, but not overly so. The boning is flexible, so not super stiff and uncomfortable but still rough if you're not used to it. It does cover my whole problem area, but I also have a shorter torso (mine is about 12.5-13in from bottom of my bra to my lower abdomen). I'm not sure it would be long enough for someone with a longer torso. For reference, I am 5ft 4in and weigh 232lbs. I am definitely pear shaped. My waistline (2ish inches above the belly button, where the size chart recommends measuring) is 35 1/2in, the biggest part of my belly (just below the belly button, lower abdomen is my problem area) is 50in, and my hips are 52in.Now let's get into the pros and cons.Pros: once I was able to get it on, it is mostly comfortable. The fabric is breathable, and the boning is flexible, so even though it pushes into my waist when I sit down, it doesn't cut into it too bad. I've been wearing it for about 2 hours now with minimal restriction to my movement. It does squish everything in though like it's supposed to.Cons: because the width of my hips is such a drastic increase from my waist line, it does bunch up in my waist crease, but it's not intolerable. It was a struggle to get on, but then again, I think that's kind of normal for a compression garment. It does seem small when trying to put it on, but with some wiggling and scooting I was able to get it where it needed to be. It does seem to have stretched out a bit though since I initially put it on, though I could just be getting used to it. Only time will tell if it holds up well or if it stretches and gets super loose.All that said, overall I am pleased with this purchase. It's not the best waist trainer out there, but it is pretty decent for $11. If anything changes over the next few days/weeks, I will come back and update.

Not worth it

I was pleasantly surprised with this shape wear. I am a man who has lost a whole bunch of weight. I have to deal with a lot of extra skin so I often wear compression shirts made for men however, there’s always that extra little tire at the bottom. While I’m not quite ready for surgery shape wear is the best solution possible. Being a professional actor and musician/entertainer. It’s imperative that I be able to fit into a variety of costumes and look well in them.

It’s imperative that I be able to fit into a variety of costumes and look well in them. I added this shape wear to a already great product that I use which is a compression tank. Adding this really did the trick to slim my waistline, and did so comfortably and without visible lines or bulging. It's breathable, easy to wear, and virtually undetectable.

Even though this is called a shaper, if you have a thick middle it does not shape, the trainer is a cylinder shape before putting on and it is the same once it is on the body, It will not cinch the waist in . The "bones" are NOT STEEL they are a thin plastic that easily bends like a zip tie thickness. It might work to flatten some areas and make them smoother if you have multiple rolls. But you will just have one big roll. If you have hips it will squeeze the top of your hips and make a bulge. This might be because I am short but This did not work for me at all. I will be returning it. 5'2, 165, 34 waist 40hips.

I LOOOOVE THIS BECAUSE IT'S NOT ONLY BREATHABLE, BUT COMFORTABLE ON MY BACK TOO!!!BUT I SUGGEST TO ALWAYS PUT IT ON BEFORE YOU START EATING ANYTHING FOR THE DAY. IT WORKS 💪🏼 💯😍😍

The fabric started to come apart after a couple of wears. Have had no issues with other it's in same sizing.
