This corset holds its own at a fraction of the price of higher end corsets.  It has a little bit of stretch in it which is not the best if you want to cinch.  The mesh is cool and comfy during summer months though, so its a good way to continue waist training in 101F temps.  I am 5 8 160 lbs with a 30 waist and a short torso.  I got the size L and it was perfect at first.  I am only a week or so into seasoning though and already it is closing all the way in the back.  Am I shrinking that fast???  I think not .  Its most likely the stretch.  I guess this is gonna be my sleep corset and Im going to have to size down.
