Review on Boys Youth Under Base Layer Short Sleeve Top - Kids Compression Shirt Underwear SK by Eric Alcantara

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very small but otherwise a good compression shirt to use for both sport and therapy!

I bought this children's compression shirt to wear for my son. He has autism and as a result struggles with sensory processing. One treatment for this is compression. This review is mainly based on the use of this product as a therapy tool. Pros: The shirt is made of a material that is smooth to the touch and wicks moisture away from the body. Dries quickly (especially when worn outdoors). Keeps the wearer cool. It provides adequate compression for use as a therapy tool. When my son is having a rough day, he can wear this shirt under his clothes and get the information he needs to worry less. Machine washable. I hang on a hanger to dry. This stuff dries so fast it's not worth ruining it in the dryer. Comfortable to wear. Ideal as additional insulation for outdoor sports. My son plays soccer and wears a shirt under his t-shirt. Then it serves 2 purposes. Temperature control and touch input help him calm down. Cons: This shirt runs very small. Two sizes smaller. My son is medium height in the US. Even when ordering a size up, it was too small. The seller was contacted and very quickly sent me another shirt 2 sizes bigger. This fits my son perfectly. Just keep that in mind when ordering. If you choose two sizes larger, you're done. Price. It's too expensive for a simple compression shirt. Other than that, this product is great. Whether you use it for therapy, exercise or something else is entirely up to you. Register your son in the Bundesliga and include this jersey as a surprise birthday or Christmas gift. This product was provided to me free of charge in exchange for an honest, unbiased review. My opinion is my own and in no way dependent on the fact that I got it for free. I have not received any compensation for this review.

Pros
  • My son loves this shirt. We bought it in every color
Cons
  • A shirt may not provide adequate warmth during the colder months or in cooler climates.
