While women shimmy into Spanx to lift, tighten and smooth their bods, guys now have a shapewear option from the waist up -- the Core Precision Undershirt, aka the "Wondershirt" by Equmen. My shapewear-skeptical husband just tried it out and was surprisingly pleased.

The Wondershirt uses HELIX-MAPPING technology to build physio taping techniques to improve posture, warm/support core muscles and of course, slim you down. Wickaway fabric means it'll work on the sports field or when you're dripping in sweat at that incredibly-humid tent-wedding this summer. This tee isn't cheap, starting at $89 for a sleeveless wonder.

In the final husband analysis, this high-performance undershirt was great for defining pecs and abs, but make sure your love interest or roommate is nearby, because it's a two-person job to peel off. He didn't find it uncomfortably constricting, even though this was the first size medium tee he's ever worn. His post-test words: "Remember, it's a Wondershirt, not a miracle shirt."

Guys, if you're slim and looking for a little definition, this shirt delivers. If you need to lose significant weight, forget it. No skin-tight compression tee can camouflage major flab -- diet and exercise first.

Dream on. If you don't have a great bod, no tee shirt is going to make you look great.

HAHA!!! Its a GIRDLE!!!! You people are just too much! This isn't new. Remember Zap Branigan in Futurama? He had on the same thing. The only difference here is that this thing is a "wife beater" and his was a regular old school one. Do you realize that the white trash that this style is geared to can't afford $90 for this thing because they are too buisy making more kids with their family, drinking and getting tattooed?

I don't care what this shirt can do for me or how good it make's me look there is no tee shirt in the world that is worth 89 bucks and it said thay start out at that so that means a small tee shirt is 90 bucks so how munch is a medium $100 and that means a large is over a $100 bucks for a tee shirt are you crazy no man in his right mine will pay that and if you are a XL or bigger I can't image what one tee shirt will cost you no thank's i will stay with my Fruit of the loom

What next - padded Jockys for all the buttless wonders? ;D

They already have undies with a pad for those lacking a butt.

First, it's not a T-shirt. If anything it's an athletic undershirt, or A-shirt. Second, it's not a new concept, Under Armor has been making form fit T-shirts for at least a decade. Check out the latest Brigade Quartermaster's catalog. Third, as someone who commented above said, if you have a crappy looking body, no shirt in the world is going to make you look like Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson.

How can I buy one on line?

steve 6-06-2009 @ 1:51PM

It is really sad to see all the lazy slobs, wondering where they can buy this. How about trying to find some good running shoes and some weight lifting equipment. Have you ever taken a girl home, started taking off her clothes only to be really disappointed to find she is wearing a padded bra? The girls are going to think the same thing. If you buy this then you need to invest in some alcohol to make sure the girls don't remember you taking it off. Losers

Is there a cheaper version with the same support system. I think this maybe a great shirt to workout in to help with form and balance.

Jim 6-06-2009 @ 2:53PM

Like the article says, if you're a slim guy who wants or needs some tone and/or definition, this is for you. Most guys are way too skeptical of things like this. I am thin, but I have an ever-so-slight ripple just above my waist that no amount of exercise has been able to eliminate; it's hereditary. I have a tee very similar in construction to this one, and I can tell you, they DO WORK. You just can't be the typical older, American-guy-fat-slob and think that this is going to slim you down to a smaller size; it won't. You need to EXERCISE and put down some of that beer and all of those wings.
