True. No disagreement, from me.
I tried some of the better belly bands, in the Eighties and Nineties, as such trusted writers/reviewers as Mas Ayoob deemed them to be more-or-less acceptable. None of them clicked, for me. I revisited the concept, after I retired, and my major activities became walking/running the dogs, photographing wild things, and the pursuit of groceries. Fortunately, the Enigma came along before I wasted too many resources on lesser mousetraps.
