I have had it for a few months and have tried to wear it daily. This garment is a wonder, but I am still disappointed. Several of the design features prevent me from being able to wear this piece every day, unfortunately. I am 5'8" but I am high wasted and I have a shot torso. As a result, this garment bunches in the small of my back, rolls at the hips, and does very little to help shape my upper back and lower belly. These are two of the main reasons why I chose the strapped high back version. Also, the straps are so rough they cut into and chafe the skin near my underarms. I hope anyone else who is high or short wasted will read this and save themselves the unfortunate experience I have had. I do have to say that I am very impressed with Squeem and their garment quality. This is an amazing piece of work. The rubbery smell goes away! It is a very firm control piece and will really slim you down and shape you nicely, but parts of it do not fall properly on me. I bought this piece because it was so long line. I wanted back bulge support and lots of lower belly slimming. I got neither.

Squeem Response: There are a couple of things you can do; 1st- Is to wear a tank top underneath the garment. This will allow the product to stay in place and bunch less as a result of your high waist. It will also assist with the irritation in your underarms, which is uncommon, but can happen with people with soft skin. 2nd - We suggest her to tuck the product under your pants, this will prevent it from rolling at your hips. Also, remember that the upper part of the vest, should be under your breasts. Nahnia from CA

I ordered a size smaller than the chart and I still feel like the garment is to large. I should have got a 3x.I love how my clothes fit in it but it makes me really hot even when its cool outside. I can't imagine wearing it in the summer, but I'm in seattle, we don't get much of a summer. Also the rubbery smell is a little annoying but overall I like the hold and comfort. The length is awesome as well. Wish it was thinner but then again it may not hold as well. key from seattle, wa

I bought this vest and the cincher. I will be returning the cincher, but I'm keeping this vest. This product isn't designed for someone like me (6'2") because it barely reaches my waist. However, it doesn't roll and it's perfect for my curvy figure. I don't have to worry about my butt popping out because it doesn't reach my waist. It isn't meant for someone who is anywhere near my height -- but it'll do. MaryGrace from NC

I was surprised how comfortable it is, and it really does support your bust, a plus for my posture, and I really like the longer length too. I hope it comes in other colors, I would like it in black. Linda from Taylorsville, Utah

I have developed back and shoulder pain and was trying this garment to help take the pain away. The fit is perfect for me, and my pain is greatly reduced. I also love that everyone thinks I have lost weight! I intend to order more at a later date. JH from Knoxville/TN/USA

I really enjoyed this item. My mother actually is on her 2nd one and she had recommended it to me. As a larger person it is always hard to tell if something will fit and actually be comfortable and help. This garment definitely lived up to the reviews I read and helps as it stated. I would recommend this garment for larger persons who are looking for support and comfort as well as slimming. Thumbs up from this big beautiful gal! S. B. from Phoenix, Arizona

I absolutely love this Cincher! It has a firm 'hold' & gives your body the appearance of an hour-glass figure. It does take a couple of weeks wearings to break it in, but I would highly recommend it! Will definitely be ordering another! Janice from New Orleans, LA

Hard to close up but worth it. I can wear clothes a size smaller when I wear it. Go with your waist size, had to rerun the large for a medium. Stays put and doesn't ride or roll up. The straps cut into my armpits, I have this problem with all wear your own bra shape wear. If you aren't use to wearing shape wear, you will find this uncomfortable. If you are use to shapewear, it is surprisingly comfortable for such a high level of support. Quinn from Rochester, NY

I thought I'd try Squeem's vest -- which is essentially the 26c waist-cincher plus shoulder straps. The 26j fits perfectly around the waist, and is well-constructed. However, I found the shoulder-straps did not add any useful function. In fact, they interfered with my bra, and tended not to fit snugly against my back. Consequently I returned the 26j vest and bought 2 more Squeem 26c waist-cinchers. They are great!

Vendor Response: You did the correct thing. Not every person is going to be able to wear any garment they want. Bodies are different and most are designed for the average body. donna from hurricane, ut usa

Love this so much--I bought it to wear with a formal dress, but now wear it even with Jeans. I was conservative and purchased a size bigger than I probably needed, but it still provides great support. Andrea from Harrisburg, PA

I like to review items after using them for at least 30 days. Although I'm accustomed to wearing compression wear, you would have laughed to see me tangle with getting this on the very first time! My first thought..."I should have ordered a larger size"..BUT it turns out I ordered correctly. Instead of ordering according to my clothing size (4) I went by the size chart noting waist sizes. I believe this is the correct way to order the proper size for this item. This item is NOT for short waist people or people needing a real 'petite' sized garment as it will be too long for them. Within one week I was already using the second row of eyes & have been at this snugger fit ever since. The garment will stretch a bit after first wear as ALL compression wear has to do. It actually fits me better this way so if anyone feels a chaffing at the arm where the straps begin in the front you might want to try using the second set of eyes to hook onto. This product does what it says it will do when using it as instructed. Not only does my waist measure 2 inches less while wearing, but I can now wear jeans that were too snug in the waist area without wearing this vest at all. Wearing jeans that have some stretch (elastic at 2%) is a challenge due to the rubber in the vest & the elastic in the jean material however persistence can prevail. You will also see evidence of the outline of hooks if wearing a very form fitting or clinging top. I have a nickel allergy & choose to wear a camisole underneath the vest which works very well for me in avoiding an outbreak problem but the unexpected bonus is that I do not have to wear any bra this way! I am a "C" & at my age, the girls are quite saggy. My camisoles do NOT have an underwire. Due to wearing a camisole however, the vest tends to ride up a bit after sitting but a small tug downward at bottom of vest fixes that so this does not create a big issue for me. This also gives back support & support to the full abdominal area. I can see where this could be useful for people needing support there both prior & post surgery. All in all I am very pleased with the Squeem vest. It is well constructed, hand washes well & appears to be useful "long term". NEVER put clothing with any elastic in it in the dryer! I just received the second one so I can rotate the two. It will be interesting to see if I go down a size in this vest after I lose 5lbs. or more. I am also happy with HerRoom & the manner they handle sales, delivery & the courtesy emails giving the purchasing experience a more 'personal' touch. Harro from S. Florida, USA

I love it. I wear it every day to work. It was a little uncomfortable at first. After a couple of days of wearing it I forgot that I had it on. People at work continue to compliment me and tell me that I'm losing weight. Which is the comment we are looking for!!!!! Daphne from VA

Love my new Squeem, Since it's made of something akin to neoprene, it holds me in wonderfully. The only reason I didn't give it a five is because the high back can't be worn with a low back, but I look great in T shirts and button downs. Jennifer from Lubach

The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that it rolls up when I sit down, and I have to find a private place every time I get up to fix myself, especially when worn under a dress. I did not experience what others were saying about the smell however, it washed out just fine. Sunny from Seattle/WA
