choosing a binder?

[xmusicfreak]

Hey, my name is Kieran and I was looking for some help with choosing a binder. I already have a tri-top from Underworks, but I'd like to try some other binders and I'm looking for some recommendations.
I'm a small chested guy; I wear an x-small in underworks binders. I'm looking for something breathable and discreet. I've been looking into the T-Kingdom M690 and Underworks Styles 988 and 997. Does anyone have experience with these binders?

Although, I've never had any of those specific binders, I've had the 1980 from T-kingdom and found it awful. You said your small-chested so it might be better for you-but I found mine barely flattened me at all. Very disapointing. The best one (for flattening) I've had is the tri-top from Underworks.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

that's alright! thanks anyway man. I've heard some pretty mixed reviews about T-Kingdom but I've also heard that their binders are mostly made for small-chested guys.

[Ash]

Yeah, I wish I'd heard that before ordering mine :/ Hope you get one that works for you though

thank you the tri-top is great, I'd just like to have something a bit more comfortable and not so warm for summer.

I hear you man. I'm going to Rome in the July and am hoping to bind everyday. Its going to be hell, but if I pass just once it'll be worth it.

For a breathable binder, I recommend one that has a zipper! It's really comfortable and easy to use. Model 801 on t-kingdom. It's a "sports bra" but still really good for just everyday use.

Coming from personal experience here.

The most comfortable binder I've ever had was a short zip up one from t-kingdom. I don't remember the model number unfortunately, sorry. It didn't do the best job of binding but I have a really large chest. It was the one I used for general around the house binding because it was really comfy and breathable. I would imagine for a smaller chest it would be ideal.

I have the velcro long t-kingdom binder. Hated it. It was more uncomfortable and obvious than the underworks binder while doing much less in the binding department. You might want to check out lesloveboat since they're more affordable and are supposed to be comfortable.

I love the double front.  Not sure what you mean by broadchested, but I'm a heavy set guy and it works great for me.

I had the double front. I couldn't get it on or off by myself, and believe me I tried. I had to call my other half home from work once because I got it stuck over my shoulders and was actually starting to bleed from it digging in to me D= Once it was on it bound amazingly but it was horrendously uncomfortable - I really don't know how you guys do that on a regular basis.

I had the same trouble with the tritop. The first time I tried to put it on I nearly dislocated my shoulder and was stuck for a good ten minutes with my arms above my head in immense pain. Now I've found that if I step into it and pull it up from the bottom its possible to get on. It scrapes like hell against my legs and is still quite uncomfortable but at least I can get it on without the fear of getting trapped.
