Did you order the exact chest size or smaller? Knowing what size to order is what's keeping me from buying one.

i just ordered 'small' size >_> Cos i know i'm like... a hobbit or something >_> so small is the way i go with all clothes lol

But at least i got it on in the end lol duno how i'm guna get it off tho >_>

Nero · December 04, 2006, 06:29:37 PM

lol, they are difficult to get on. Was it an underworks? I got mine a size too big. Was going by back size and I've got a lot of back fat lol.
Anyway, congrats.

Congrats!

What ever you do don't cut it off

I so glad that it's everything you hoped for. And I'm so happy that you guys have to suffer as much as us girls when it comes to hiding things

I've read they're supposed to be quite difficult to put on and that you should try stepping into them rather than pulling them on like a shirt. I don't use one (yet) because I'm small enough that a frog bra works very well for me, but I di inted to get an Underworks binder at some point.

Andrew · December 05, 2006, 09:39:21 AM

Yeah, if you don't have big hips you can step into the neck and pull it on like a pair of pants. That's what I do.

I think i might have to try that way... and yes, i have discovered getting it off is just as big a task as getting it on O_o

I weared it for work today ^_^ Tho no one noticed cos i stook a big fleece on cos it was FREEZING!!! >_<

Transguykid · December 05, 2006, 11:24:16 PM

congrats, dude.

it gets easier to put it on after a while.

and even though I have wicked big hips, I was able to shimmy it up over my bum with a bit of effort. Just mae sure you're not waering your undies yet or you'll get tangled 😛 I put it on liek a shirt now. I have an X-small, though I really need a small. It's WAY too tight on my ribs...

ConfusedMichelle · December 06, 2006, 07:51:05 AM

Congrats dude 🙂 what brand did you get? Interested in getting one, just checkin my options.

jonjon · December 06, 2006, 09:45:21 AM

It's an Underworks. I actually slept in it last night because i slept over at a friends house and really couldn't be bothered to tackle with it and it was amazingly comfy to even sleep in ^_^ It just needs a wash now lol

ConfusedMichelle · December 07, 2006, 05:05:30 PM

Went to the Underworks website, which one is it exactly? lol

Transguykid · December 07, 2006, 07:58:33 PM

The Underworks binder that most guys recommend is the tri-top. The double front is also popular, though I didn't like it.

Ouch, that looks painful.

Hi.

That's so awesome you got one. I would like to but I just don't have a way to. My mom said she'd get me a few but she hasnt...and it's been a few months. It'd be so much easier with something from underworks.
But I guess I'll have to last...
Anyways, Congrats!!!

Hello Wishy,
I was absolutely hysterical when I read your post. I know exactly what you are talking about. Very tricky to get on. I thought I was stuck a few times. Definately understood the feeling of being in a straight jacket. But once its on.....Whoa boy! How incredible is that. A whole new world...A whole new ball game. I am coming way out of my shell. I am so grateful for this site and so grateful for that post. It is so exciting knowing there are so many more "goodies" to come. Keep pluggin in. Thanks for the laugh...I thought I was the only one having that much trouble....but I love it.
Take care.
