Too Hot!
I purchased a 2 piece Spanx travel essentials in black. The fabric is very soft and comfy. I have almost a similar one made by Tribal but it has no zipper in top and collar is smaller. My first comment about the spanx set is that it is uncomfortably hot all the time. So much so that I change out of the top almost every time. I’m 62 and run a little warm most of the time so for you chilly gals this one is a winner. If you run hot I would pass. The top is a bit of a crop- not a lot but if you like your top a bit longer in the tummy area you may want to pass. Also the collar with zipper is heavy so a lot of bulk with a coat on. The pants fit well and are super comfy. The pants have no pockets- that’s a fail for me as I didn’t notice there were no pockets until after purchase. Not a big deal but if you like pockets these aren’t the pants for you. Overall I like my Tribal one a little more with the 3/4 sleeve, small collar, longer waisted and while it runs a bit warm too (similar fabric) not as hot as the Spanx and the pants have pockets. You’re going to spend well over 400 for both Spanx pieces in Canada so important to weigh the pros and cons.
