FAQ
Wearing it
Will anyone be able to tell I am wearing it?
No. The seams are flat and the knit is thin, so under a shirt or a polo it looks like a plain undershirt. That was the first thing we designed for — if it is visible, it has failed.
Will it roll up at the waist?
It is cut longer than a standard tank so it tucks into your trousers and stays down when you sit. Rolling up is what cheap shapers do, and it is the reason most people stop wearing them.
Is it hot to wear all day?
The knit wicks moisture and breathes. It works as a genuine everyday undershirt rather than something you are counting down to taking off.
Can I wear it to the gym?
Yes. It breathes well enough for training, and the back panel helps your posture under load. It is not a medical support brace, so do not use it as one.
How do I get it on?
Step into it and pull it up rather than pulling it over your head. It goes on far more easily that way.
Sizing
Which size should I order?
Order the same size you wear in a normal t-shirt. It should feel snug going on — that is the compression working. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one. Full measurements are on the size guide.
My chest and waist are different sizes on the chart.
Go with the larger of the two. The fabric stretches four ways and will take up the slack at the smaller measurement.
What if the size is wrong when it arrives?
We swap it and we pay the return shipping. Email us with your order number and the size you want instead. You have 60 days.
The product
What is it made of?
A nylon and spandex compression knit with four-way stretch, flat-lock seams, and an extended length for tucking. It comes in Black, White, Grey, Navy and Nude.
Does it lose its shape?
No. The compression is knitted into the fabric rather than coated on top, so it holds after repeated washes.
How do I wash it?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang it to dry. Skip the tumble dryer and the fabric softener — both break down the stretch over time.
Will it help me lose weight?
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. This is clothing. It shapes your torso while you are wearing it and changes nothing once you take it off. Anyone selling a tank top as a weight-loss product is selling you something else.
Ordering
How do the bundle prices work?
Buy 3 and you pay for 2. Buy 5 and you pay for 3. The discount is applied automatically at checkout — there is no code to enter, and the price on the product page is the price the cart charges.
Can I mix colours and sizes in a bundle?
Yes. Add each colour and size you want to your bag, and the discount applies to the total number of tanks.
What does shipping cost?
A flat $4.99 anywhere in the United States, with no minimum. International rates are calculated at checkout before you pay.
How long does delivery take?
We pack within 1–2 business days. Delivery is 5–10 business days in the US, 7–14 to Canada, and 10–21 elsewhere.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Email us within 12 hours of ordering and we will catch it before it ships.
Returns
What is the guarantee?
Wear it for a full 60 days. If it is not for you, email us and we send back 100% of your money. You do not need the original packaging, and a tank you have worn and washed is fine.
Who pays return shipping?
On a size exchange, we do. On a change-of-mind refund, you cover sending it back. If the mistake was ours — wrong item, faulty, damaged in transit — we cover everything including the original shipping fee.
My order arrived damaged.
Email us within 7 days with a photo. We send a replacement or a full refund, and you do not need to send the original back.
