After five kids I needed A LOT of support. I tried this one on at Kohls and loved it. I ordered it from Amazon because the price was a little better. The support is great because it smooths you out from under your arm down and firmly supports your back, waist and stomach. Having the option of wearing your own bra is so great and makes wearing a girdle like this more comfortable. The two things that I don't like about this girdle are the straps and the crotch. The straps are narrow and after while dig into your shoulders and really hurt. The straps should be a little wider since the girdle supports your whole torso. The other thing is the crotch is great because it unfastens for convenience but it hooks right under your butt and makes going to the bathroom a pain. I almost wet myself the first time I wore it trying to unhook it. If it fastened closer to the front that would make this girdle a winner.

After trying countless options I finally found this Flexees. I absolutely love the fact that you can wear any bra you want with it.
You'll never get a good combination of fit and support up top when using slimwear that comes in only a few sizes.
Bra sizes come in many sizes and styles for a reason. People need and want different things.
With this Flexees you are able to get the right fit using any bra you please (push ups, minimizers, smoothers, etc) with a universal slimmer on your waist and hips.
Since it has straps you wont have to worry that it will roll down whenever you sit.
The snaps on the crotch make it easy to use the bathroom. There's no need to take the entire thing off and no slit opening like on some other slimwear.
It provides decent support. It wasn't terribly constricting yet it managed to smooth everything out.
The only negative is that I found the straps to be set a little wide and after a few hours of wear my shoulders were irritated.

I wear this for every dance rehearsal and its still intact! Very durable and very comfortable. I don't have the typical dance body so this works great to keep me "comfortable" in a team full of "true dancer bodied girls". It holds everything in but I don't feel constricted at all. The clips make it easy to go to the bathroom and the straps don't slide off like my old one. It even makes my regular day to day outfits look better on me =). I'm very pleased with my purchase.
