EVOLVE Define Men’s Shapewear Crew Neck Undershirt

By way of a reader, I learned that Evolve (a Target-based 2(x)ist brand) just released an affordable line of men’s shaping undershirts priced at $12.99 each!

The line includes:

It’s interesting though. The Evolve shapewear line is nearly identical to the 2(x)ist FORM line of shapewear products which are priced at $48.

For those not good with math, that means that Evolve shapewear products are priced 73% less than it’s 2(x)ist branded brother products.

The 2(x)ist FORM line is made from a 80% Cotton, 20% Spandex blend.

The Evolve Define line is made from a 85 % Cotton, 15 % Spandex blend.

Hmmm…makes you wonder, huh? A 5% fabric blend difference warrants a 73% price difference?

Well, next time I get over to Target, I’m definitely going to pick-up some of these new Evolve Shapewear undershirts so I can see how well they compress and conceal my love handles.

    Hey guys, I do have the UPC code, but there’s like 3 lines of numbers, I think the very top one is the store upc,so it’s 040-01-0321 oh,and by the way this is for the V-neck tee. Big question…why did Target stop selling them,no wonder I can never find them,some of my friends even bought some of these underwear items-LOVE ‘EM. Also have the briefs with the wide tummy tucker! Where can I order more??

    • yo tony from chicago! thanks for stopping by and posting the upc information. that’s awesome of you! if you feel up to it, can you take a photo of the label and email it to me? i’ll post it here so everyone has all the information when calling target. so you know, evolve is made by 2(x)ist, so they have similar – but more expensive – products under their 2(x)ist brand. if i recall correctly, it’s their ‘form’ line.

      can’t tell you exactly why they are no longer available. possibly it was a test? or maybe these undershirt lines got discontinued by the manufacturer.

      thanks again buddy! i really appreciate it.

        Hey TUG,

        I finally grabbed a picture of the UPC code on the back of the new Evolve shirts. Let me know your email and I’ll send it to you.

        So why have they returned? I have a guess. They discontinued and clearanced the old versions because the new versions are thinner, shorter, and therefore probably cheaper to produce. They are still $12.99 each.

        I prefer the older versions because of the better weight, the length (I’m 6’3″), and the neck didn’t stretch out and bunch up like the new ones do.

        Regardless, these are my daily worn undershirts because the Hanes PowerSlim shirts (which are better at slimming) are no longer available at stores near me.

    I’m happy to report that the once-discontinued Evolve Shapewear has been cleared out and now replaced in two or three Target stores that I’ve recently visited! I immediately snatched up half a dozen as I use these as my daily wear (since the Hanes PowerSlims are also no longer available!!)

    • hey jay, that’s some pretty great news! thanks for stopping by and letting us know! can you tell me a couple things:
      1. where did you buy the evolve shapewear (city/state)?
      2. do you still have the packaging? if so, can you post the upc code that’s printed on the bar code? this will help other readers call targets in their area to see if they are carrying them.
      3. which version is yours? crew, v-neck, or tank?

      • Jay says:

        The Targets in Missouri – both in Columbia and Springfield – seen to have restocked the Evolve Shapewear line (including girdle-like underwear boxer briefs?!) except for the V-neck shirts. That means only the crew is available.

        Well I’ve already discarded the packaging. If I get another, I’ll be sure to grab that code and let you know.
