First let me say that although I am a lurker, you guys have taught me so much about truncal LE and how to deal with it!  Thank you.  Because of you I found the UA compression shirts did the trick along with MLD for me.  And that the darker colored shirts do fit tighter!

I went to reorder today and could not find colors & sizes.  Did a quick CHAT with UA and yes - they are discontinuing the Women's HeatGear Longsleeve Compression T-Shirt.  UGGGGGH.  Supposedly coming out with something similar late fall.

I cannot wear the Mock necked ones they are still selling as it aggravates my neck.

Any ideas?  Has anyone found other compression shirts out there that do the trick as well as UA?

Thanks for your help.

    I wore the men's short sleeve versions this summer but was thinking about the ladies style for cooler weather. If you are a petite person, perhaps the youth sizes might fit. Would their outlet stores have old stock, maybe even at a discount?

    Hi MNCheese,

    I wear the women's short sleeve v-neck with my compression sleeve.  The cap sleeves are a little annoying, but so far, so good! And I always wear the black too:)

    Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!  Those long sleeve compression t's have been great for me!Yell

    You all can blame me.  If DH and I discover a restaurant we like, it'll close.  If we like a particular product at the grocery store, it'll be discontinued.  If I find some pants I like, they'll stop making them.  If I find a store I like, it'll go out of business. If I like a baseball player, he'll be traded or test positive for steroids. 

    I liked these compression shirts - so OF COURSE they're discontinued.  Story of my life!  Tongue out

    I also contacted UA customer support and got a different story than you did, mn, so maybe there's hope.  This is what they wrote me:

    "The Women's Long Sleeve Heat Gear Compression V-Neck is not a discontinued item at the moment however, unfortunately, we do not have an estiamated replenishment date at this time."

    I don't like the sound of that "at the moment" language - it's hard to tell whether it applies to the "not a discontinued item" clause or the "don't have an estimated replenishment date" clause.  I guess we'll find out.
