CzSalus Flat Knit K1 Long-Sleeved Women Compression Vest to Alleviate The discomforts of Lipoedema, Lymphoedema

The shirt is very, very long—more like a tunic top or even a bodycon dress. I have been wearing it over my CzSalus K2 leggings and loving it. It actually works very well for me as the largest parts of my body are getting double compression. The one difficulty is getting it on. I have not mastered it at all, but in case this helps anyone: 1. first I put on one arm, then I pull the neckline over my head 2. then I squeeze the whole shirt down over my torso with the same one arm fully in the sleeve, and the other pressed against my torso inside of the shirt. 3. Once the shirt is pulled down over my stomach, I use my sleeved arm to pull the other side of the shirt away from my body to make room to squeeze my other arm up and into the sleeve Step 3 feels like if I'm not careful, I could dislocated my shoulder. If you're an older person or don't have a lot of upper body strength, I would recommend asking a friend or family member to assist. Once it's on, I find it very comfy! But that getting it on part, whew! About me: 5'7", 220 lb, size 18, Primary, Bilateral, lower limb lymphedema. Bought the top because I'm recovering from abdominal surgery. Both top and leggings are XXL (2X). The leggings are much easier to get on than the top fyi. No assistance needed, even for those without upper body strength. Just take your time.

I love the compression this gives me. However this was not intended for bigger chested ladies in mind. The compression at the chested was too much for me to breathe comfortably. So, I found out I could cut out the inner bra lining which reduces the pressure significantly. Now I can wear it comfortably.

This purchase was worth it. Italian made and this brand especially makes quality compression products that you cannot find anywhere else. It looks small when you first get it, but it stretches to fit. I started with a larger size in the beginning but then went to a smaller size which is still very comfortable and gives me better compression in the sleeves. No one makes compression shirts for petites that have shorter arms, but I have been able to make the one size smaller work for me. I wish there were more compression shirts like this but made to be worn as an outer garment. I have worn this as PJs or put a tank top over it to wear in public which has worked okay. Petites sizes for shorter arms would be great.

It’s compression I get that but I couldn’t even get my arms in it. Runs wayyyyy small.

On the one hand the fabric is very nice and fits well on my arms and ystomach / rib areas. On the other it completely crushes my chest. Not around the ribs (at the bra band), that is fine. I ordered based on the measurements and could have actually gone down one size and it would have been better compression for my arms. BUT if you have larger than (I’m guessing) around a ‘b’ or ‘c’ cup size then this is going to crush your chest and be very very uncomfortable. I’m disappointed because i need the compression and the fabric is great, but I think I will have to return it because it is like wearing binding to flatten my chest.

Liked this lot. Actually thought it was cute enough to wear on its own. Material seemed substantial yet soft on the skin. Unfortunately, I had to return it as it was too small. Will be ordering another one in a larger size. N

Properly fits torso and arms but the seams dig into my armpits. No amount of adjusting helps. I have very long arms and the sleeves are long on me. Question whether this fits someone with standard length arms. 5 stars for fabric ; 1 star for fit = 3 stars. I think this is generous; needs more work on the design.

Perfect compression for Lipedema arms. Can wear under your long sleeve blouse or dress. It’s 🥵 in this Texas heat but great in the winter.

I love this top I have lymphedema in my left arm and right breast and this top really helps. Sleeves very long, but would rather they were long than short. Went for an XL which fits well am a size 16 on top 5ft 6. Would have liked even slightly tighter arm compression but nevertheless still love this top. Will buy another one in black and the beige & live in them all winter! Arrival to UK was fast also. Very impressed.

Väldigt nöjd, fungerar utmärkt för lymfsystemet.

I had Lipedema surgery on my lower back and legs and needed some compression for my back, I bought this and it works great. It’s very difficult to get on at first but I got used to it second or third try. I’m a 30DDD and actually find the top stretches enough once you get it in the correct place. I bought a Medium because of my cup size and because I have Lipedema in my arms. The shirt is quite long but not in a negative way. I have to sleep in it and am comfortable enough. My one wish is that it had thumb holes, that would be prime. I’m 5’5”, 160lbs, 30DDD and got a Medium for reference. Update: had surgery on arms and it needs thumb holes. I had to cut some and they stay thankfully! The garment does stretch out over time and doesn’t return to shape. My MLD’s are impressed with the grooves and the way they help break down fibrosis post op. You do need to move it around a bit or else it gets quite itchy.

Das Shirt sitzt sehr gut und rollt sich nicht nach oben, das erste Mal anziehen war schon sehr mühsam, geht aber beim zweiten Mal schon besser. Ich hatte einen Bolero probiert ( andere Marke) und musste feststellen, dass mich dieser unter den Achsel einschnürt, obwohl die Größe oke war, aber ein Shirt ist eine supa alternative.

Taille bien et pourtant j’ai des bras assez musclés. Et ne roule pas sur la peau. Et j’ai pris une taille S. Reste bien en place Je l’ai acheté pour ma future liposuccion des bras et je ne regrette pas. Par contre juste après une lipo je ne conseille pas. C’est assez difficile à enfiler mais pour quelques semaines après oui comme j’ai prévu de l’utiliser.
