Hey guys,

i'm having issues with binding.  Even though i wear a binder i still have a chest.  Is there any possible way of flattening it more without having to layer?  Is it possible that maybe the binder is a little small and the next size may help?

Thanks

I got the same problem with my chest. It bothers me significantly.

I use bandages to bind, I think if you want to flatten your chest more you could wrap them around then put on a binder. I have a fairly large chest so I have to get creative.

i tend to have the same problem. im like a 36 C/D (depending on brand) and when i first started binding with the ace bandage, it looked more like a uni-boob. and its was realllllly uncomfortable. then i got a binder from T-Kingdom (which has now busted a year later and after all my mending is pretty terrible) and i found that if i wear a sports bra underneath, zip it up (well no its carefully velcro it so the super glue and staples dont fall off and then safety pin it at the bottom) and i pull up the sports bra and lift my boobs up it look more like pecs... just too big cos of my fault gear.

im getting new gear tomorrow. :)

I'm a triple/double D...I have the double compression from UnderWorks. But it still doesn't work as good as it needs to. I'm gonna try out the tri top from UnderWorks and see how that one works.

am a double D myself.  I use tri top one. still doesn;t seem to work completely though. pushes the boobs together into one lump rather than pecks.  But have passed some despite it.  could be another reason for when I don;t pass.
Every day we pass people, do we see them or the mask they wear?
If you live under a mask long enough, does it eventually break or wear down?  Does it become part you?  Maybe alone, they are truly themselves?  Or maybe they have forgotten or buried themselves so long, they forget they are not a mask?

i got the comperssion crew shirt and the v neck from underworks. size small (its what i wear in mens shirts) and the black one (cotton) feels great! but im having a really hard time with the other one, its a complete pain in the a** to try to get on and off, it works really well, but it rolls up alot and isnt very comfortable, should i send it back and get a medium? or is this typical with the shirts?
