GainKee Sweat Vest

I’ve purchased this item twice and I’ll give you my honest, unpaid review. I’m completely new to waist training. After reading reviews, I purchased a 5x. I’m 5’4, 325 lbs with a small waist so I thought the 5x would be where I’d start. It was entirely too big, so based on the fit, I’d take a shot in the dark and I ordered a 2x. This size was too big too, at least for me to wear alone. I put on two McDavid waist trimmers, to cover me from bust to lower stomach, THEN, I put on the 2x corset and it was perfect for my desired level of compression, which was perfect for me. So all in all, I’ll most likely have to order a 1x or even a large if I wear just wearing the corset ALONE. The sizing chart really doesn’t matter, so ladies, be mindful when ordering. I wear a 24/26 in bottoms and 1x top, our bodies are not cookie cutter. You may be 200 lbs and need a 4-5x in the corset because of a larger midsection or in my case 325 and needing large to 1x, it will depend on your body type. And also remember, the goal is compression so you don’t want to order it in the size where it just sits on your skin. Even being new to waist training, on a scale of light to strong compression, I’d say on a scale of 1-10 this is about a 6, so good enough to work out in or light errands or just enough to wear around the house or go to work in for an 8 hr shift. It’s enough compression to remind you that it’s on, a reminder to keep your muscles tightened, a great beginner corset. But to those more advanced in the waist training journey, you may need a more durable corset with a less stretchy material and more spines….more heavy duty. This waist trainer is very comfortable to be and not too abrasive. I don’t wear it directly on the skin, I wear a shirt under because you will sweat if it’s directly on skin, it will have a warming effect. All in all, I’m pleased and it meets my needs. And also, my first 2x one I ordered was stolen from the package and the seller sent me another and I got it in 2 days so CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EXCELLENT….I plan on buying the next two sizes down until I’m ready to transition to something more advanced. Also, it’s undetectable under everything except something skin tight such as a mini dress or lightweight bodysuits, in that case, you may want a faja or thong body shaper, the kind you step into and pull up that gives you full coverage.

I love waist trainers and it so difficult to get waist trainers to fit and hold everything together and keep my back straight and support

I really tried to give this product a fair shot. First of all it's really flimsy. It gives you no support. Secondly, the torso is really short. To give you an idea, I'm only 5' 1" and my torso is short even for my height. I can't see the hood of my car even with a booster. If I drive in a new car, I have to train myself how far away the front of a car is by getting out several times when parking to see my distance. This product doesn't cover your whole stomach at all. I had to choose where I wanted my gap. Either the top of my stomach or the bottom would remain exposed. I have a big a stomach, I weigh almost 300lbs, but I went by their measurement chart. This ties in my 3rd complaint. If you have a ridiculously small torso and you still want to get this item, because it's so flimsy and stretchy, I'd get a size smaller than the chart measurements indicate. So I ordered a 6x and sent it back thinking it would be better if I went down a size since it didn't offer any support and I hooked it as tight as it could be. But even though going down a size made it hug me more, it still wasn't much and the whole my belly would stick out somewhere issue was still a problem. I would've thought perhaps I'm too big for these, but I recently purchased a different brand and it's amazing. It's stiff but not too stiff, the sizing chart was accurate, it lifted my huge boobs (which are a 44HH in European or 44L in US) and it sucked me in so tight that I can actually see my coochie in the mirror for the first time in years! My only issue with it was that it goes so high up on my back that I can't use it for everyday wear because it sticks out of the top. So, I only use it at the gym. That's why I was trying this product, because the scoop in the back was lower and I'd be able to wear it with normal clothes. Unfortunately, it just doesn't do anything. So, I'm returning it to look at a different brand. I'm really disappointed because the pictures looked so good, but that's not what you actually get.

I’m 5’0 and around 170~ lbs. I wear size 16 in jeans and my waist is about 45”. According to this chart I should have gotten a 6xl, but thankfully because of the reviews, I took a risk and got a LARGE. It was perfect. It was tight enough to where I could just barely clasp the first clasps and I was able to zip it as well. If you are struggling with what size to get, I recommend getting the size you would normally wear in leggings. I highly recommend getting the one with the straps included as well because the straps made a huge difference and really made it feel like I was being compressed. Without the straps I see how some reviews think it isn’t compressive enough. My only complaint and the reason for my review being 4 stars is because I feel it should be an inch or two longer. This won’t apply to everyone, but for me I found it didn’t go all the way to my hips like I like nor did it go up to the underneath of my breasts. I felt there was some pudge at the top I wish was compressed, but overall it was a good fit.

I don’t know if I didn’t size right or it’s just the material but I feel when I put this on it didn’t give me a tucked in feeling although it was so hard to put on, but I find that it didn’t make me feel tinier, but this also might be my misunderstanding of what this really is it honestly felt like it’s kind of like spanks and this is really just a hide that muffin top I also feel like it was a little short for my torso, but I do have a longer torso, but honestly, if you’re looking for something that hold everything in this would be a good product for you I just feel that the quality wasn’t like a strong material to hold and it kind of just sculpted to my body. I also when I looked in the mirror, I could still see muffin top, but with a not so tight shirt, you wouldn’t be able to see it.

Seems like very good material. Has some boning for shape, a fit as expected, comfortable, easy to put on and wear for a long period of time. I will be ordering more from this brand

this product is not worth it, it tore from the inside

First of all because it's too stretchy it doesn't have any pressure on the body andit slides up and down your waist

Amolda muy bonito el cuerpo, la tela es de muy buena calidad, sin duda la volvería a comprar!

The size chart is wrong because I followed the size chart and i still got a big belt which didn't serve it purpose.
