Esteem Apparel Original Men's Chest Compression Shirt to Hide Gynecomastia Moobs Shapewear

This is a great item! It was looser in the chest area than expected, but still tight enough to make a difference! I’m actually able to wear it comfortably for an extended period of time and it doesn’t feel uncomfortable even after a long time. It flattens where it needs to and I appreciate that. Definitely recommend!

I would normally order an XL, but am actively losing weight. The size L is a little tighter than I'd like, but will be fine when I'm 10 lbs lighter. My weight loss has left me with flabby pecs and this shirt does a great job of making them disappear. Also makes my belly appear smaller too. All around a great man girdle..... I mean compression shirt.

The item is very good. It was tough putting on for the first time. I wish there could be some other kind of fabric added to the back, because, when you put the compression shirt on your pant will slide down.

So I've tried Spanx and it worked for years for me but I didn't realize until now that I was not wearing it properly. After getting this Esteem Apparel compression shirt and reading the instructions, I see now that I should have been stepping into my previous compression shirt rather than pulling it over my head like a typical t-shirt. If you want to see results with this shirt, you MUST step into it and pull/stretch it up just far enough so that you can slip your arms into it. The key is that you want the shirt to be stretched down to your thighs. This creates optimal compression to your belly and pecs. I'm 5'5" and weigh 210lbs. I should really weigh closer to 150. I've been so self conscious about wearing t-shirts during the summer time as well as tank tops. I dread it. I find any way to layer clothing which sucks because I have to deal with being extra hot and stuffy. This compression shirt works much better than my Spanx compression shirt ever did and that thing was far more expensive than this one. I noticed that it hides much better underneath shirts than other compression shirts I've worn as well, it's hard to tell you've got it on. The only thing I really think could be improved or altered is the shoulder area, it's a bit wide and I wish it were slimmer because sometimes the shoulder tank top part of the shirt bunches up just a little bit but honestly it's not a huge deal. The material the shirt is made from allows my shirts that I wear over it to effortlessly move around. Previous compression shirts I've worn didn't allow that, they'd make my out shirt stick to it if that makes any sense. While this shirt doesn't make me appear skinny, obviously, it does an amazing job at reducing my pec fat and even my belly meats lol....and with minimal sucking-in on my part. I can actually walk around without having to hold my stomach in myself which over time hurts my lower back. I used to wear size Medium in shirts when I was at a healthy weight but being overweight now, I wear Large. For this compression shirt, I bought a Large and it fits just fine. It isn't too big or too small at all for me and it isn't too long either which is an issue I run into sometimes when buying Large sized shirts. It seems durable too as I've played arcade dance games with this thing on and sweated up a storm. Just make sure after washing it that you hang it out to dry, don't put it in the dryer as the heat will damage the mesh apparently. As long as you keep that in mind, this shirt should hold up fairly well! Esteem Apparel is a fitting name because this shirt has definitely boosted my self esteem to walk around in public without feeling so insecure. It's a shame I have to wear this to begin with but I'm trying to work on my diet and exercise more. But in the meantime, this shirt helps out with hiding my extra meats a bit lol. One last thing to mention is that this shirt actually does fit underneath my tank tops which is amazing, I wasn't expecting that. It hides fairly well under a tanktop especially if it's of a darker color. If I can edit this review later, I may add before/after photos when I get the time!

Tighter on the bottom than the upper part, which is important if your main concern is Gynecomastia. It hides the man boobs, but it can be better.

I have had man boobs for as long as I can remember, and I am not even just saying that. I was overweight as a child all the way up through High School and once I hit High School, I got more serious about sports and working out so I lost around 45-50lbs, but saw little to no improvement in the man boobs section. I am now 31 years old and put some of that weight back on unfortunately, so I went down 2 separate roads: 1) I had a consultation with a local surgeon who is highly touted, and he assured me he could correct my issue and I would be a great candidate for it, however, that fix was quoted to me at $11K+.... The saddest part is that this has had such a negative affect on my life that I was very close to biting the bullet and going for the surgery. 2) As a last ditch effort, I said what the heck and gave this shirt a try. Honestly, I have pretty noticeable moobs and this shirt has shrunk them down considerably! I simply wear the shirt underneath any T-Shirt or formal wear when I go out and I immediately feel more confident, have better posture (I slouch to hide my moobs as much as possible), and just feel better about myself overall. I decided not to get the very expensive surgery and just wear this shirt as an alternative, and I am very pleased with the results. Although the surgery would be better for things like taking my shirt off at the beach or pool, I am very pale skinned also so at least I have the generic sun-burn excuse for that.I have seen some reviews saying "it doesn't completely hide man boobs" and things of that nature. I will say that I was very skeptical myself, and yes they don't 100% vanish from your body, but honestly I was amazed at how well the shirt worked for me. Even the very slight bulge I have in that area now (while wearing the shirt) looks more like pecks/muscles than man boobs (perfect for me also because I am not in horrible shape and still workout, so it fits my body type). Anyway, I ended up buying a 2nd shirt about a month after the first one and now I just ordered two more today. If you don't want to pay absurd amounts of money on surgery, this is by far the next best thing and barely a fraction of the price. Wish these were around throughout my childhood, as it definitely would have helped with self esteem, especially after I lost all the weight and still had man boobs (very frustrating situation).I highly recommend this shirt, and if you are a doubter, just give it a shot and see what it can do for you! Spending less than $30 is way less challenging/intimidating than going through very expensive and potentially dangerous surgical procedures. Worst case, it doesn't work for you and you can pursue other options afterwards. I doubt you'll regret it!!

Easier to get on than some with decent size arm holes, and still retains a good compression to clean up lines and shape. I’m a fat man and I’ve gotten compliments that I look stronger and healthier in these surprisingly. That has helped me actually now lose weight. The little boost I guess.

I have ordered these for years and they are amazing! I have been on a weight loss journey and I need something that will help with moobs, extra skin and even with my hernia! This is the best I have found and stays super tight for years! My last set of 4 lasted 2 years with everyday wear! I wash and dry them with all my regular clothes! The material is thick yet breathable! It is the best value for the best functionality!
