Just placed order for my first binder!!!

[Caleb]

Hey Rowan.. I'll def. let you know how that 988 works out once I get it in!

Thanks Espenoah.. I was hoping I wouldn't have to wear that with the binder.

Radar.. do you think it's because you got a size that was too small? I def. don't want to be uncomfortable.

And that's awesome Al... for some reason I still haven't received mine. I got a conformation that it was sent out from Underworks on the same day that I placed the order. I'm getting nervous!

Caleb, it will be shipping ground through the post office from florida, so how long it takes to get it depends on how far from florida you are.  People who get it in a day probably live in the south east.

[Caleb]

Kyle, yeah I live in south carolina. That's why I was kinda expecting it to have already gotten here. Maybe the whole weekend thing is throwing it off though.

[Radar]

Caleb, no it's not too small. I actually am wearing it today and the longer it's on the more comfortable it is (even without a rash guard). I guess it just takes getting used to. I still prefer the 997 more though.

BTW I see you live in SC. Where at? You can PM me if you don't want to show it publicly. I'm curious since I live in NC.

[Caleb]

Sure thing! So you ordered from underworks, since you in NC.. how long did it take for you to get your order?

It took a few days, not real long. After reading this thread it reminded me that I needed to order a new binder, so I did yesterday. I'll mention when it comes in.

[Caleb]

Haha alright. I ordered mine Thursday around 1pm. Still nothing in though.

Oh and another question... I'm going to the beach in a week.. if I do get into the ocean with the binder on, when i wash it back at home how long does it usually take to air dry?

[Radar]

I don't know what salt water does to a binder. Some other guys have talked about it before so you might want to search the threads.

[Caleb]

Alright, appreciate it.

well binders are here. just spent about ten minutes getting the 988 on which isnt as bad as the first time i put the 997 on. glad i went for the medium i think the large would be too big even with these.with a t shirt on im def flatter than ive been for a while tho at the minute the material needs to give a bit so i can adjust myself properly. also the bottom edge of the binding sits right on top of my stomach which a hurts a bit and b makes my stomach bulge out. it also digs in under my arms but i know i need to lose weight so thers my incentive. all in all not bad tho.

[Caleb]

Nice! Yay! I still haven't had a chance to run past my friends house to see if mine has come in yet. And yea I was worried about the whole stomach issue as well. Another thing... what chest size are you?

It wasn't there as of 1pm. But I checked the status of the package at ups and it made it through sorting at 820am and was sent out for delivery in my town at 850am. So I would imagine it should make it there by the end of the day!

My friend said my package came in!! I haven't went to get it from her so I don't know how it feels or fits. But it's here! Can't wait!

[Al James]

i m a 40D and i just manage to get the medium on wore it for six hours last night and on the whole it was fairly comfortable, cut in a bit under the arms but didnt go thro the skin. getting it on and off was a lot easier with my partners help. my problem is when i look down at my moobs when im wearing it they look massive but if i look in a mirror from the side i look fairly flat. £hinking of going for a reduction tho

[Caleb]

Nice to hear! I'm about a 38-40 B or C. So hopefully mine will fit as well as yours and look flat! I'm picking it up from my friend tonight.. so I'll have to let you know how mine works out!

Though I don't have any other binder to compare to the 988, I love it. It feels pretty good except for a little cutting in the upper ribs, but other than that it's great. Compresses very well for me!
