When your shirt shows more of your chest than you'd like
Fitted tees, polos, a work shirt. They sit tight across your chest, so you keep pulling the fabric away from your body, or you end up reaching for the baggy dark one again.
What it is
A cropped compression vest that covers your chest and stops at the bottom of your ribs. It fits close, fastens down the front with hooks, and goes on under your normal clothes.
What changes when you wear it
Your chest looks flatter and smoother through your shirt, so fitted tops sit the way they're meant to. It works while you're wearing it. It doesn't change your body.
Why this one
-
Cropped to the chest. The compression is across your chest, with nothing wrapped round your stomach.
-
Front hook fastening. You hook it up at the front instead of dragging a tight vest over your head.
-
Plain back. No fastening on the back panel.
-
Black or white. Black under darker tops, white under lighter ones.

"Flat" measurements are taken across the vest laid flat, so it stretches beyond them when worn. Measurements can vary by 1-3 cm.
Please note: this is a compression garment and it's designed to fit much closer than a regular undershirt. If you're between sizes, have a broader build, or prefer less intense compression, we recommend sizing up.
FAQ
Will it help me lose weight?
No. It changes how your chest looks under clothes while you're wearing it. It doesn't burn fat or change your body.
Is it a medical or post-surgery garment?
No. It's an everyday compression vest. It isn't designed for recovery after surgery or to treat any condition. If you've had surgery, wear the garment your surgeon recommends.
Will it improve my posture?
No. It isn't a posture product.
How tight should it feel?
Firm, but never painful. If it pinches, makes breathing uncomfortable or leaves you sore, take it off and go up a size. Give yourself breaks from it rather than wearing it round the clock.
Will people see it under my shirt?
It's sleeveless and cropped, so it sits under most tops. Under very thin or tight fabric you might see the edge or the hook strip. Go for black under dark tops and white under light ones.
