UPDATE: I have been wearing this shaper (and also purchased a Beige colored shaper) for about a month now. This is really a FANTASTIC shaper and the best I've ever owned. Hands down. No question.

I purchased the black Flexees shaper following an abdominal scar revision surgery to wear following the period of time I'm required to wear a surgical, abdominal binder. My plastic surgeon required I wear a Spanx-like garment so during my search ran across this item.

I've worn a lot of shapers in the past including bike-style shorts, camisoles and slips. But this is the best shaper ever and absolutely worth the price. The shoulder straps are extremely comfortable and the snap crotch closure is easy although a little cumbersome. This item slims and smoothed beautifully!!!
