Hi all

A few quick Q's about the compression vest...
1.  Whjere do you get them from?
2.  How long did yours take to come?
3. Do they come in 'discrete' packaging?
4.  What size do you go by..pre or post op....at the moment I am 42" chest, although this will go down after surgery....so which size will be best for me?

Cheers!

I got my Underworks double layer vest from e-bay (UK) for just over a tenner.

It came (today!!!) in a small white padded envelope.

I am not big and thought a medium would do. It will be good for sports and walking but I think I might need one in large, as I wore it today and felt it uncomfortable sitting and it rode up quite a lot. It also felt tight underarm but again if I am on my MTB it should be fine.

Hey mate

1. I got mine from http://www.underworks.com/ model #990
2. Took 6 day from the states
3. They come in a plain envelope, you would be surprised how small they fold up to.
4. I bought a large with 45"chest.  Ill be putting it on tomorrow for first time post op cos my bandages are coming off, so ill tell you how it feels then size wise.
