On Monday I am suppose to go to a different city where it will be my first time to see if I 'Pass'. Unfortently...The binder I ordered from Underworks is extremly small ( A medium and it won't fit over head ._., or arms) So that binder is out of the question. Also I am trying not to use Duck tape because my father has been asking questions about what the ->-bleeped-<- I am doing with the duck tape. So...I want to see if there was another solution? Other then wearing ace bandages (Heard they don't work and is bad to use) or wearing a huge baggy shirt that will just make me look very unappleaing and obvious.

Anyway to bind?

Step into the underworks binder instead of pulling it over your head.

||Stepping into the binder is usually the way to go, but I got tired of that. So if you or a friend knows any basics with a sewing machine, what I did was cut my dbl front compression binder down the center, bought an invisible zipper (which was slightly longer than the binder) and sewed it on, put some good reinforced stitches where the zipper length needed to be cut and its perfect. I wear compressions shorts that are cut at the crotch and then my zipper binder. Imo it takes a lot less time then wresting my way into the binder the way it was before and the zipper is invisible under tshirts.

Btw, since I used a sewing machine, my zipper hasn't had any unraveling or coming undone, its pretty reinforced and I've had it like this for 4 months with no problem
