Hey guys. I know there's been a pretty negative review on here about these before, but I just got one and have my own review. I love the thing. I got the black mid-length binder with drytech fabric. After years of using the 997, this thing feels like the most comfortable thing I've every worn. It's a little tighter than a sports bra, obviously, and the little bit of fabric that hangs down rolls up a bit on me when I sit down, but I've got a belly. It doesn't compress my stomach like the 997, so I feel just like I'm wearing a tight sports bra (although it's longer and stiffer material, so you could easily convince people [or yourself] that it's a back brace). I think the way it's shaped makes it look more natural than the 997, which gave me kinda a uni-boob appearance and also make my side fat pop out my armpits and made me look deformed there. So yeah, I really like this thing. I'll keep using it to see how it holds up, but I may just have to buy a few more of them and maybe try out the mesh-back one for the summer.
It might not work for really big guys, though. I have a 46 inch bust which for me is a large B or small C cup and I have the largest size they offer-- a 3XL (I usually wear size XL shirts and have them baggy on me). So anyone bigger than me probably won't find one to fit.
Here are some pictures of me wearing it. These are from my first time wearing it. I can actually get a little flatter than this now, but I'm a bigger guy, so being too flat could look just as unnatural as not being flat enough. Excuse my giant ass-- I'm working on shrinking it.
