A shopper on Oct 30, 2017

IS THE BOTTOM BAND TIGHT?
RMCD M on Dec 5, 2017
BEST ANSWER: It does fit tighter than the body of the shirt. It's not a straight fit down to the bottom. I guess it would depend on the individual customer as to whether or not it's too tight for you. Mine does ride up with certain movements and I have to pull it down.
