I'm 6'2" and my bra size is 46F, and I carry extra weight as well. Can anyone recommend a binder that you really think may work for me? My proportions rarely apply to female clothing so I anticipate that there will not be many that will work for me.  I can't afford to do a bunch of trial and error purchases. :/

GC2B has a lot of good reviews for bigger chested guys. Although I'm not as big as you I found it to be more comfortable and breathable than Underworks.
They/them pronouns preferred.

Awesome, thanks. I just found out that there is a place an hour from me where I can go try on some underworks ones, but I'll make sure to really check out the G2CBs before I buy anything. I'm concerned about the heat factor. It gets really hot and muggy where I am.

Glad I could help :). Didn't know Underworks sold in shops; but I'm in the UK. I find the GC2B less hot to wear than the Underworks because it's made of a thinner softer material. I also always buy half top binders because otherwise I feel too hot.

I think with the combo of bust and height combined that the mid cuts like that may not cover me completely, otherwise I would go that route for the same reason. I like to stay active, so the cooler I can stay, the better. I have been exchanging emails with gc2B since my last post here, and they are helping to make sure that if I do order, that it will fit by doing extra measurements. It looks like it would breathe much better, so I'm hoping it will work for me.

Thanks, Johanna. I did already skim through them, but I'll try to give them a proper read now. :)

I am 5'8" with an H cup. I have an underworks binder that works fairly well. It doesn't get me completely flat but works better than I expected. It is hot and sweaty though. I am saving up for a GC2B binder but it will be a few months before I can give you a comparison.

Arice, I just ordered 2 fromGC2B after exchanging a few emails with a really helpful person there named Oliver. After he made finally made his recommendation, he also added that since he personally recommended it, if it didn't end up working, I could exchange it free of charge, with shipping covered and they'd continue to help me until I found one that works. You may want to go the same route if you are an F too. I'll let you know how I like it and how the heat factor is once I get it. If you are an F cup too, I'm sure you've had the same feeling that it's like packing two thermal ovens under your shirt 24/7 even under the best of conditions. -fingers crossed-

I hope to order a binder from them with birthday money next month...
