I don't believe it would work for me either when I heard the words "snug" under the arms. That alone would make me send it back. I'm busted, remember?

If you don't love it, don't keep it. I decided to get another shak because I loved it so much. Plus I have the Pingo jacket on the way. If you you don't love it enough you would want a second one, you probably won't wear it that much. You will always go to an old favorite.
