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
