Title: Binders like the Air Max?

As much as I love my air max long binder, it's not worth the $70 to me when I could just try compression shirts or bras for a lot less and get almost as good results. Do you guys know of any like it that aren't so expensive? (What I like is that it's soft instead of scratchy, and it doesn't make me feel out of breath or anything like that like underworks does. I also like that it doesn't compress the stomach.)
If it is important I'm an A, but a dense A.

I'm also a dense A / small B and I only use Underworks if I need ultimate compression for a special event or something because I do find that their binders are only okay in the comfort department. What I use daily is one of those cheap asian "tank top" binders that you can find off of ebay or amazon for less than 15 bucks. They're super comfortable in my opinion and I can recommend them for daily use. I even bought a size up by accident and it wasn't too bad, I still had great compression with ultimate comfort (I'm really between sizes S and M).
These are example links about what I'm talking about:

They're cheap and great, but it's a bit of a wait time to have them arrive at your doorstep since most of these come directly from Asia. Hopefully I helped ya! Good luck, man. ;D

Thanks man, I've heard mixed reviews but it can't hurt to try them! Sounds like you've had a good experience with them.

They are a bit more on Amazon, but Amazon is good at returning and reimbursing (usually). Would be US shipping.

hi,
i also have air max and i love it...
brand t&g makes binder and sports bras, they have one model that is called Combo and its simmilar to air max binder, it looks like this https://tw.buy.yahoo.com/gdsale/gdsale.asp?gdid=4884352
i have it and its very very comfy! but works somehow more as a sports bra than a binder i think, but if i put a looser tshirt on top it doesnt show (im A cup)
i bought it on ebay for about 45$ shipping was free... yeah ist pricey but comfy

I opened the page and it said "$1000". I imagine that's some other country's currency! :)

Interesting website.. I checked the conversion in google and it seems that 1000 Taiwanese dollars are equal to approximately 33 USD.

yeah, on ebay they had higher price 45$, but shipping was free....
usually if you order from their facebook https://www.facebook.com/tg.tomboys they charge you about 28$ for shipping... so it was kind of cheaper form me to buy it on ebay for 45$.
i messaged them, they speak english and they were very nice
