Underworks "Extra Power Compression Vest"?

[Dominic]

Hey all, just wondering if anyone here has tried the Underworks model 980, "Extra Power Compression Vest (Double Layer)"

Is it effective? How comfortable do you find it?

Pictures are appreciated!

I ask this because I currently have an Underworks Tri-Top, and I've recently been experiancing some chest pain and discomfort, and the Compression Vest seems like I would be able to adjust it some, which would really help. However, I've searched through a couple other threads relating to binders and found little to no mention of the CV.

Also, currently I am unable to exercise even minamally (a short two-mile walk is a struggle in even just mildly warm weather, although it's mostly fine in chilly temperatures) and would be interested in a binder that would allow me to have at least some measure of stamina during the coming summer.

I'm interested in any advice you have to give!

I've not tried that one, but I can tell you I'm a big fan of the double front compression shirt (AKA The Ultimate Chest Binder)  I find it quite comfortable, as long as I tuck it into my underwear to keep it from rolling up.  It doesn't make me quite as flat as the Tri-top, but given my size, I think it has a more natural look.  More like I have nice pecs.    Also, you might try a slightly larger size.  I found that, though I could squeeze into a Medium, the Large was much more comfortable, and the difference in compression was minimal.

As a side note - I've been checking out guys' chests (payback for all those years when they checked out mine  ) and really, unless they're very skinny, they don't have completely flat chests.  Even some of the skinny boys have definite cleavage, albeit placed differently than female-bodied persons. Just something to think about.
