Corset Wrap Belt – Stylish Waist Shaping and Support for All-Day Wear

So first I want to say if you're looking for a corset to wear under your clothes to make you look flatter/smoother through your clothes, this isn't it. If you're looking for back support, postpartum tummy support, or a belt that will make you sweat more when working out, you're in the right place.There are 2 different models being sold in this listing, and they do have significant differences. I bought both styles, and both arrived in under 2 weeks and were made of sturdy good quality materials. I will talk about fitting and then go into how well the product suited my needs.The first one is shaped like basically a giant band-aid. It's smaller all around than the other. The second one, they call it the Z1 style, has some contouring on the bottom edge and is both wider and longer. Both have the cinching straps and are made from the same materials, but because the 2 layers of elastic for the cinching straps are more spread out in the Z1 model, they are easier to pull around yourself and deliver a more even squeeze for those with longer torsos.Take into account your measurements and body type when choosing which to purchase.If your measurements fit into the sizing chart pictured, the first belt should fit for the most part as advertised, in my opinion. The first belt would probably be best for someone with a shorter torso length, the Z1 would be a better option for a longer torso since it's wider. If your waist is bigger than the measurements listed for the XXL but still under 50" then it's likely you could still be able to use the XXL of the Z1 model! The Z1 is actually more than 3" longer than the other one and it seems a bit more stretchy to me also. I velcroed my XXL Z1 model just far enough so the velcro would not be sticking out and poking the wearer, and then I measured inside it with a sewing tape measure and it was 50" around inside. So I'm saying that if the sizing of the belts is consistent from this company within styles, then if your waist is 50" or less you should be able to use the Z1 XXL. I would like to repeat though that the other model is smaller and I would suggest going by the measurements on the chart for that style!Now, as far as usage, I have given birth to 6 babies over 10 years and could never stand to wear anything around my stomach directly postpartum because it was painful. Over that time my belly became very large. I'm certainly not a skinny lady but my belly was disproportionately stretched out to where I looked pregnant with multiples all the time. I had been needing to wear 3x in tops, 20/2x in bottoms because of my 51" belly and when I began to work out with T-Tapp 3 months ago, my whole body was shrinking but my belly was not shrinking any faster than the rest of me, thus I still looked preggo, just like a smaller preggo lady than I looked like before. In order to help my midsection gain (lose?) some ground on the rest of me, I was looking for a belt that would squeeze in my stomach and make me sweat more around the middle. I've never used a workout belt before but I've seen some, flat rectangle rubbery things that look like they would feel nasty when you sweat in them and suffocate your skin while not contouring at all to the curves of a human body. This belt looked different and I decided to give it a try. The price being so affordable, I ordered one of each style to try out. Both suck me in but the smaller one didn't feel wide enough for my really long torso. Both make me sweat. I can wear the wider one a little longer before it begins feeling uncomfortable because it fits my body shape better. I forgot I had it on one day last week and realized I'd had it on 6 hours. Oops. I don't think it's good to have it on that long but I guess it's proof of how comfy it is. It's working so well that I need to order the next size down because I can't strap it very tight anymore -it's not that the belt is stretching, it's that I'm shrinking. My stomach is significantly less disproportionate to the rest of my body since beginning to use this belt. I do T-Tapp 10-20 minutes a day while wearing this belt and I'm now in a size 16 jeans/XL tops, still shrinking, and feeling fabulous!
