For many years I was not satisfied with other types of corsets, especially with stirrups. I work in law enforcement and I like to keep things clean and tidy throughout the day. I'm tired of constantly tucking in my shirt and fighting with a gun belt. This product was fantastic. The shirt also stayed where it was supposed to when running. It takes a bit of getting used to the proper placement and tightness, but overall everything works as intended. So yesterday I threw away the stirrups forever.
