Also what is the difference between this http://www.amazon.com/Whatstart-Womens-Slim-Chest-Binder/dp/B00ENZ63EU and this one http://www.amazon.com/Dolpind-Womens-Lesbian-Tomboy-Binder/dp/B00O1OFMTK/ref=pd_sim_193_4?ie=UTF8&dpID=416XAoOlBCL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL200_SR150%2C200_&refRID=1TTNRB4EAXQY7E3CTGBS

It probably depends on your size and chest size. I wouldn't go for it because I am not small...

There doesn't seem to be a difference in those two. I would stay away from buying them. It'll only flatten you if you are very small chested; plus there is no support built into it; so you'll probably have to layer it with something else. I wouldn't waste my money would instead buy a proper binder which is guranteed to work.

The binder I am wearing right now was 22 basically a little more expensive, but actually works, the only problem is well your size will be odd, I am normally a large in this I am a xxl so basically two sizes up (might be off so look into it for yourself). But here is the link and there are other options including ones like underworks. Remember your going to be wearing it for hours you want it to both fit and work.http://www.amazon.com/Lesbian-Breathable-Compression-Central-Binders/dp/B018DAGFT8/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1463502667&sr=8-13&keywords=binder+ftm

I wouldn't think this binder was a good idea either. If it has clasps it is not breathable. I'd again recommend gc2b binders as it's specifically designed for trans men to wear and is made for the purpose of binding reguarly.

GC2B or Underworks are the go-to binders that get recommended here. I understand cost constraints, but you really do not want to skimp on something that you are going to wear everyday for that many hours.

I would not get those iv'e had a lot of people tell me not to get them because they'll come in way to small
and have bad reviews. I go to GC2B there pricey but worth it. I looked at those the first time i went looking for a binder and was told no several times so yea gc2b i better.

if you're younger and don't have access to funds, etc there are websites that do offer free binders for folks. just google ftm binder programs and something will pop up.
