Trendy Tops: A Comfortable Clothing Solution for Ostomates

This topic is about using "Trendy Tops" as a practical and affordable way to secure and conceal an ostomy pouch. These tops are a simple solution for anyone looking to keep their pouch in place and out of sight. Here are some helpful insights and advice:

- Trendy Tops are marketed primarily for women, but their plain style makes them suitable for men as well.
- They are made from breathable stretch cotton and come in sizes large (fits a 33-inch waist) and extra-large, both offering good elasticity.
- These tops can hold a longer drainable pouch close to the body, allowing the end of the pouch to be tucked inside to prevent rubbing.
- They help create a slimmer profile under clothing and can be beneficial during intimate moments.
- Wearing them while sleeping can add comfort and provide extra security against nighttime leaks.
- They can also be used as a swimwear accessory under trunks or suits, and they are easy to hand-wash and quick to air-dry.

Additional advice includes:

1. Some people recommend checking out OstomySecrets for their unisex "Wrap," which works similarly to keep the pouch flat and discreet. It has received high praise for its effectiveness.
2. For swimming, a thin, custom-made spandex waistband can also help keep the pouch secure without having to pull shorts above the natural waistline.
