Product Insights
Miiyu's Seamless High-Waist Smoothing Short offers light to medium compression with stay-put silicone bands and a seamless, invisible finish under clothing, using recycled nylon microfibre that matches virgin quality in strength and dye uptake. At $29 CAD, it provides a value alternative to brands like Spanx and Builtwear, though it does not deliver firm compression and requires cold wash and air-dry to preserve the silicone grip. Designed in Canada as a Simons-exclusive, it earns Reddit comparisons to Aerie at a lower price.

Tres belle qualité
Cuissard
Si vous cherchez un cuissard gainant celui-ci ne vous conviendra pas . Le tissu est plutôt mou donc pas de contrôle
Fait très bien ! Bon
Fait très bien ! Bon soutien ! Bonne grandeur !
Very thin and smooth
Very thin and packable. They are very smooth so youn can’t see them through tight dresses. There are rubbery bits around the legs so that they don’t ride up. These are perfect but would not be good for someone who wants the option to wear them as shorts.
Trop petit!
OUFFFFFF!
Small
Good quality and I liked that they were smooth at the bottom with no hem, but they fitted too tight in the waist for comfort.
Parfaite
Mince, sèche rapidement, taille invisible, se porte comme sous vêtement ou pour un petit look sous la jupe courte. Normalement je porte du médium, mais le grand est la bonne taille pour moi.
