Review on Get Effortless Style And Coverage With SPANX Women'S Long Sleeve Arm Tights™ Layering Piece by Barbara Petersen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Picture and packaging of item is misleading

I love Spanx and have several pieces. I was a bit disappointed in this Art Tights product for 3 reasons. One, the picture online and on the packaging makes you believe this layering piece is long sleeve - it isn't - it is 3/4 length. I do short- or long sleeve.I don't do 3/4 sleeves. Two, after only a few weeks of wear, pilling started under the arm. That was not expected given the name Spanx has been associated with good quality products. Lastly, I was not happy with the fabric used for this piece and here's why. I had the layering piece on and went to put on a long sleeve, cotton collared shirt. I expected it to slip on easily, but the fabric is such that there was friction between the 2 pieces. Kind of like wearing flannel PJs in a bed with flannel sheets. I mistakenly thought this product would be somewhat like Cuddle Duds (love them) except with compression. This product is not silky and smooth like Cuddle Duds.

Pros
  • Layering under my tops.
Cons
  • Shrinks after washing
