Dn't get me wrong I like Spanks but I weigh 118 lbs and am 5'4" and the LARGE was strangleing me. What the heck would a big girls order. Felt lie a streight jacket. It was well made and made to stretch at neck while putting it on

Points for concept, but I haven't found a single item this pairs with and it's turned out ot be wasted money.
It shows awkwardly outside every sleeveless garment I've tried it with, and I have tried many. And in TWO different ways, at neckhole and also at the armholes. There is a weird diagonal racing stripe detail that joins the arm to the bodice, but this detail peeks unevenly outside the armhole of every sleeveless item I've tried and looks cheesy. And the neckhole is narrower than the sleeveless things I've tried, so this shows unevenly inside the neckhole.
If you have a sleeveless item with a narrow neckline and small tight armholes, then maybe this wouldn't show outwardly.

Love these! I’m a 32E and wear a medium, and they fit perfectly. Exactly what I need to wear under short sleeved shirts in the fall/winter/spring in this part of the country, because they provide a little extra warmth without being too hot. Surprisingly durable too, I wear a pair almost everyday to work, so the ones I have have been washed dozens of times. They don’t snag or get holes very easily, and when they do get a hole, they don’t run. The sleeves don’t come down all the way to my wrists, but about 3-4 inches up, which is perfect because I have to wash my hands often and long long sleeves get wet. Chest part isn’t as opaque as the arms, which I think looks cute under low necked tops, but does mean you have to be careful if you take it on or off while wearing earrings, because it will snag and run there.

This is only meant for a perfect body, if you have any kind of a tummy this will accentuate it in a big way. I would not recommend this to anyone.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
I love these tops. They are as described: arm tights. They enable me to add arm coverage under dresses, tank tops and chest coverage for low cut tops when I don't want to show too much skin at work. The cropped style doesn't add extra bulk or ride up at the waist when tucking in shirts or wearing under dresses, etc. I do agree they run small, so more generous sizing is definitely in order. I am 5'2" 110 lbs and can wear the xs/s but it is snug. However, the material stretches, so I don't find it binding or uncomfortable. I have 4 colors and have not had one tear or snag yet. I hand wash and air dry, just like my hose and tights. I think it would be nice if they made the material a tad thicker to provide better warmth and protection from potential damage. These make clothes last for more seasons and provide some extra warmth for me. I love them.

This is made of tights material. It’s skin tight. It’s super thin, like tights, so I use it for layering under blouses and sweaters! It’s crop top so sits just under your bra. Love it!

This item feels exactly as it’s name implies, like tights. But also like tights, the fabric tends to run. I bought it in three colors, and all three have had the same problem. Luckily it was in an area that didn’t show too badly, so I still enjoy wearing them. I like that these can serve as a lightweight bra. I just wish they wouldn’t run, because I really like this product!

A little too tight and pretty short. Not as comfortable as it looks in pictures.

I love these. Wish Spanx would bring them back! Please bring them back, but in a more durable form so you can get more uses!!

Perfect for underneath as a different kind of layer! I can see myself using this garment all of the time!

Arm seem shows. Not as quality looking seem. Make seem less visible. Wear and tear quickly . More durable material would be better and options for thickness. Does pair well with sleeveless.

Material was too thin. I ordered one size up & still somewhat snug. Won't order another one. Love the concept.

2 stars for the concept. No stars for execution. This top fit, it was not too tight but felt oddly constricting and uncomfortable. A different fabrication is necessary.

This is very thin material -- like nylons, not tights. Package says "limited wear" because the material can run like nylons. What if you are at work and you get a run in your sleeve?? A little harder to hide than when it happens on your leg.

Horrible fit. Way too small even though I ordered a size larger. Also, received what clearly looks like a used top.

I returned because this Spanx product was different from the Spanx arm coverings I’d previously purchased, which were mesh, and worked with a black formal gown. I wanted to wear these navy blue arm coverings with another full length formal navy blue gown that is short sleeved, but these coverings were like leggings for the arms. I was looking for hosiery, a thin transparent mesh. These were arm tights and I should’ve realized, but the description I thought said “mesh.”
