Comparing Binders Love boat Shop Vs Underworks

[insideontheoutside]

That's by far the most comfortable binder I own, hmmm.  Have you tried angling the velcro?  You can make it tighter up top where you need it and looser towards the bottom.

I did try that and it made it more bearable.

For those of you who live in the US, do you have to sign for the package from lesloveboat? I'd realllly like to avoid that if at all possible, pretty much the only reason I'd order from underworks instead.

[insideontheoutside]

I didn't have to sign for it.

[LilDoberman]

I had to sign for the first two but not the last one; I think it depends on your mail person.

I had to sign for mine.

Hmm, alright. Thanks guys.

the 2nd generation jersey mesh just arrived. the binding power is nice, comparable to the esha extra strength or the tri top i think. this binder feels sturdier than love boats pricier binders, but the material is still comfy- there's mesh on the inside and the outside feels like very sturdy cotton and the binding panel is in between these two layers (you can kinda see it through the mesh). it's cut high enough in the front not to show cleavage and looks a lot like a regular tank top. it seems like a good deal for the price, only downside is that the bottom seam digged in a bit when i first tried it on, now that i angled the velcro it's fine though. and the shoulder straps are wider apart than on some of their other binders i suppose, but that's actually more of a pro for me, giving it a more tank-top like appearance. i wear a size small in all their other binders and i have to say this one is a bit tighter, maybe an inch.
can't tell how durable it is yet, obviously.

Hey guys, I just wanted to say that I posted a quick review of my new jersey mesh vs tri top in the "binder comparison chart" thread, if anyone's interested!

Seriously old thread, but incredibly helpful. lol I have the 983 from underworks, and had to cut some off from the bottom as it was cuttin into my rips and curling up. I also had to cut a layer of the compression off, as I ordered a size smaller, to get more binding, which was not  a good idea. But I didn't wanna send it back, it was my only binder at the time.

I now, also have the 997, which is incredible comfy. BUT I've got wide hips and it rolls up into my stomach, so I use prosthetic glue to glue it down at the bottom and it works great. Doesnt move. I do have to adjust every few hours tho, but the uniboobage is significantly less. My fav so far. I've lost 40 pounds, so I need a smaller on now.

I also need a everyday one though, as I've been using the modified 983 (above), and its so stretched out and dirty looking now.

I really don't like the idea of velcro, because of the sound issue and the possibility of it coming loose. Scares me. But I see alot of good reviews about the Loveboat jersey mesh velcro binder.

The pullover looks like it could be comfortable for everyday use:

Does anyone wear their binder 24 hours a day?? I wear my modified 983 all day everyday. BUT it is modified and VERY loose, almost like a seamless sports bra.

I think that I should warn people that loveboat is not discrete packaging. I believe I did have to sign for it but don't recall. But you get a box saying "les loveboat" or something like that. Another thing I dont' think they fit bigger guys. Lots of discussion on this elsewhere. I would guess they are good to about a C cup. If you dont' know how to figure that, there is info online. I would guess it is a difference between under and over the chesticles.

This. If you're above a C, don't bother. Just stick with underworks. I wasted $70 on a LL binder.
