Comment with your favorite binder.

I'm looking to get a new one but I need suggestions. For reference, my chest is a 34 DD so if you know any binders that work particularly well for bigger guys, let me know.

I don't really care about price, I would rather buy a nice one that will last.

Underworks 997, worked best for my body.

I don't have any binder suggestions since I'm not your size. Sorry.

I ordered one from underworks...waiting for it to get here and i will update with how i like it

Please do write about your experience. I'm a medium chested guy but I found that underworks worked superbly for me. Cheers.  :)

I've always used the Underworks 997 binder. I'm big in terms of weight so I like that it compresses everything and looks much better than if I had a tri-top. Mine is pretty comfortable, it's probably because I have a relatively small chest.

Side note: Why is mac allowed here if they're just rude? That was completely unnecessary and inappropriate.

My favourite binder is 983 Underworks tri-top, I'm 38D *sigh* and it works well.
I'm big chested, wide shouldered but with slim ribcage and flat belly. So it's the only binder that you can buy smaller without being too tight on the chest, or else it would be tight on the chest and flapping around my ribs.

Just a fyi i removed the post in question.

Anytime anything like that happens again just click the report to Moderator.

Sorry some people are just crass in there response.

My favorite is the 997 as well. I couldn't tell you my exact measurements, but I'm a big guy and I've got DDs. The 997 works best for me because it doesnt ride up the way the tri-top does when I don't have an extra compression shirt on (it inevitably just turns into a ready uncomfortable sports bra on me if I don't have an extra compression shirt on). The trick I've found is to push the girls down and to the outside. It's kinda hard to do on the shorter length binders due to the, uh, girth.
I've tried a host of others, but the 997 is definitely my favorite.

Well guys, it came in! I really like the 997. I'm about 180 lbs, at 5'8, and the binder does an awesome job concealing my hips and tummy in addition to my chest, which I was not expecting. I have large hips and they make it hard for me to pass, which this binder helps with.  I've heard about issues with it rolling up for some guys, but as long as I tuck it in and wear a belt, it's fine. With a DD size chest, it obviously doesn't get me as flat as I would like, but it does a great job all things considering. As long as I don't wear tight shirts, it just looks like I have some pretty big pecs haha.

Devention, I took your advice and push down and out and it seems to work pretty well.

Sounds like you're satisfied with your binder. Congrats! Underworks is a very good company anyways so your binder should last you a while.
