When i tried this product on I was amazed at the level of comfort provided by the waistband. it hugged my waist perfectly and was never too tight. The material was breathable and didn`t cling to my skin when I worked out. The only downside was that it was a little pricier than some of the other options on the market. Overall, I highly recommend this product for men who prioritize both style and functionality in their activewear..
