Best thigh shaper ever! My “thigh chubbies” bulge out from my hips, and I never get a smooth silhouette. This has two contour bands that fit directly on my problem area and makes it practically disappear. Firms/lifts/smooths rear like nothing else! My jeans look great. Runs VERY small. In other brands I’m 1X, in this a 4X. Very comfortable on, even though fabric is mesh-like and not soft. A 10+!! Tess from Los Angeles, CA

A friend recommended I try a long leg panty girdle, as she has worn them for years. She wears ones with garters and has the choice of pantyhose or stockings. She ordered one for herself and me. I was surprised it works with stockings as I always wear pantyhose with my girdle in the past. I still mostly wear my pantyhose with it but I prefer pantyhose anyway. Christine from Seattle

The best! Does not ride up like the bike-short style shapers I had been wearing (which are now ALL going in the trash). Garters are easy to remove and the support is great. Runs very small, so be prepared to size up. I weigh 120 lbs and wear a 6 petite in pants, and the large Rago is perfect. Will soften up a bit after a few washes and it air-dries quickly.

My boyfriend bought me this wonderful girdle recently for my birthday. I always considered the panty girdle as a 60's garment worn daily by my mother. Boy was I wrong! This garment is SO comfortable that I now own 3 of them and wear one almost every day. While the girdle is functional it is also incredibly sexy to my boyfriend. He loves it when I wear it with a skirt that is just a bit too short giving him and others lots of lace cuff girdle peeks. Thanks RAGO. I also wear it around the house with my stockings and pumps and do housework which is a real treat for my guy! Giselle from portland/or/USA

I love the fabric and the form but the legs were not long so they road up and the waist rolled down. A smaller size would only make the legs shorter. I so wanted it to work.

Another in my Rago girdle line I own, but will never reorder this girdle. The Rago 6206 I will probably order to replace this one because the waistband rolls over sometimes. The girdle does provide great support in the areas where I need it and I can wear all day under a dress, but wasn't as comfortable under slacks when I worked

Rago Response: We would have probably recommended Rago style 6228 . The 679 focuses on the lower tummy also referred to as the “pouch”. If your focus is the entire belly we would recommend a higher waited garment such as the 6228. Terri from Kenosha, Wi

Great product. I am lean and fairly muscular, but have an hourglass figure with muscular thighs and my trouble spot is the "saddle bag" area - these did the trick. I bought them in both small and medium so I could choose depending upon how much wanted to bring my silhouette in. They give a smooth shape and are well constructed. Not the most comfortable ever, but if you are looking for firm control, these will do it. If you want light control, use Spanx! Most shape wear targets waist/stomach or derriere (which these also control), but these areas are fine on me, so it was great to finally find something that worked on hips/thighs.

It is basically a good girdle, but not for a short woman. Also, this style used to be made with a zipper, which made it much easier to put on. The fabric is not the same as it used to be. Ive been wearing this style for years because I like it, but it has always needed shortening the waist to crotch length. And I definitely miss the zipper. Jo from Nassau County, N.Y.

I am a big girl, size 22-24 and this thing sucks it in and looks great and I feel comfortable in it. My only problem is the legs roll up, so while I would get this product again I would get the panty instead of long -leg

HerRoom Response: A good point. Legs rolling up usually means you need to go up a size. However, you could sacrifice support. IF the top fits, you might want to alter the garment by having the legs cut off, or a panel added to he inseam. KE-KE from pHILADELPHIA

The garment was defective. It did not have garters I sent it back explaining it was missing the garters. The second one they sent is missing the garters. I wrote and they called me stating they would send a return label so I would not have to pay shipping again. It has been 9 days and I am still waiting for a return label to get my refund. I placed this order well over a month ago. The service has been terrible. When I sent the first one back, they said it would take 2 to 4 weeks to exchange. Then they refunded my money instead of exchanging. So I reordered, paid for shipping again, and once again received the item with out garters. So to review I have paid for shipping for the garment, to return the garment, and to ship another one and it still is wrong.

HerRoom Response: We do apologize for your terrible experience. Here is what happened. Rago has been sending us mixed shipments for this style - some with and some without garters. They did not think this was a big deal because most customers do not use the garters. You alerting us to this fact led us to contact Rago. While we were working through the inventory issues with them your second shipment shipped. We do apologize and will be giving you a full refund including your shipping costs. Again, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Suzy from Ohio

I love this girdle; it really does the trick. I'm glad that Rago understands that even "small" women have "ruffles and flourishes". I see so many women, even young girls, walking about with jiggling (not sexy) bottoms; I want to go up and say: "Get a Rago", dear!" Joanne from Fresno, Ca
