Title: First Binder
Post by: Henry Lockhart on December 19, 2012, 12:57:28 AM
My binder came from MORF today. Its is a homemade one, so two large strips of elactic sewn together with a thin strip of elastic and about eight eyes and hooks.

Admittedly I had to spend half an hour resewing the elastic together but it is worth it - any excuse to practice. I forgot how good it feels to drive without the seatbelt being a matter of irritation.

All in all I am very happy to have my first binder!

Fantastic! I got my binder from MORF too, they're a really good and valuable service.

Wore it to an 8 hour shift and it kept sliding down. I just need do sew more elastic onto it... I have been wearing it over a vest like shirt. Perhaps i should wear it under something.

I do not regret getting it though. It is better than an underwire anyday. It just keeps sliding down.

Instead of sewing more elastic on it might be easier to sew it onto a tight shirt so that holds it in place, especially if you don't want it directly on your skin.  Just a thought.
