How to Overcome the Embarrassment of Underarm Sweat & Get Ahead at Work

There’s just something about a person brimming with confidence. And in the business world, Love Sweat Proof Shirts clients and management notice, too.

But for those who suffer from excessive sweating, the embarrassment of underarm sweat drains your confidence.

These feelings steamroll into a vicious cycle of nervousness that can actually make you sweat more, and over time, the effects can impede your upward mobility at work.

In fact, confidence not only creates the guise of intelligence; it also feeds into competence. According to a study by the University of Melbourne, self-confidence is a key determinant of workplace success. And in social settings, confidence even can make men appear more attractive to women

Before starting Thompson Tee, I struggled with the embarrassment of underarm sweat daily. I worked in sales for nearly 16 years, and in that field, confidence is everything. Even the faintest sign of self-consciousness or worry can instantly turn an eager prospect into a skeptic. Like most hyperhidrosis sufferers, I resorted to wearing only white collared shirts, keeping my arms by my side, and rarely — if ever — taking off my suit jacket. Now, nervous sweating and hyperhidrosis are nonissues for me, and by choosing the right solution to sweating, you can also conceal underarm sweat marks and fulfill your career dreams.

I bought these for my wife to wear during an important job interview because she stained the underarms of (combined) undershirt, blouse, vest and jacket in the previous interview process and was terrified this could cost her the job. She has mostly worn white or black and has avoided colors her entire life.

We tested out your shirt in 85+ degree weather at a 4th of July picnic while dancing outdoors to a band. She wore a tight, light blue polo and there wasn't a drop of sweat! It was mind blowing.

You have a customer for life.. and she got the job:) Have a great weekend!

… For the last 25 years I have felt different and less than normal. I sweat so much from under my arms, when taking test in school, that I would drip sweat onto the floor. I have even sweated though jackets! Being made fun of hurt my confidence to almost the breaking point. After school I choose jobs based on the fact that if I could wear a black tee shirt. Using your tee shirt, I bought my very first light blue dress shirt in my life. I can know dress for success!  My confidence is coming back.  I'm more outgoing and happy. Your shirts fixed me without surgery!!!”

I'm a working student who loves your product. I'm studying to become a construction manager so I'm constantly giving presentations so these shirts are a must for me. I recently received a new job in my industry which requires button-ups and even more presentations…Thank you so much.”

The Thompson Tee has changed the way I work. I work in retail servicing many customers daily in a colored t-shirt that makes pitting very visible. I would keep my arms at my side all day long and dread going to work because I felt embarrassed every moment I was on the sales floor. This amazing t-shirt has not only stopped me from pitting through my work shirt, but also feels much more comfortable even though I sweat heavily…All I know is that I feel drier, happier and much more confident doing my job.”

I've had difficulty with my sweat flooding through and onto my outer shirt for years now.  The worst is in a professional setting, noticeable wetness is always embarrassing, clients shouldn't have to see it. These shirts actually make me believe that I'm sweating less than I ever have before, there is so much less odor (practically nonexistent), and although I haven't switched to a plain deodorant from my antiperspirant yet, I'm going to give it a go shortly…The confidence boost I have from them are immeasurable. I'm a realtor so my business depends on human contact, this just helps me feel so much more comfortable in my own skin.”
