My upper legs and hips are making me extremely uncomfortable recently, I just feel like they look too feminine. I'm going to be buying a new binder soon, and I started looking into the compression shorts, but nobody really seems to be able to help me. Do they actually make your legs look thinner and more masculine?

I bought them with my last lot of binders, and frankly I was unimpressed. They're basically just mens bike shorts, and if you want them to do anything you're going to have to get a size or two smaller than your messurements. For the cost, I think you may as well go out and buy a really small pair of bike shorts, they'll do the same thing, and cost less.

I also agree, the only benefit they had was keeping my binder from rolling up.

I bought them as well, no benefit to them whatsoever. I should have bought them in 2 sizes smaller instead of my correct size to see if it would shrink my hips, but I bet that it wouldn't either way.

I never tried the ones from underworks but I tried these from walmart:

I'm going to guess they work the same. Personally, I like them. I feel like they smooth everything out for me.

I've bought both the longer and the shorter legged versions ... and was unimpressed with both.

what do you use for a binder? maybe its just me but i just got the 997 and i pull it over my hips, and that does the trick. it says its now 4 inches longer? it works just fine for me. i like it so much better than the tri top

I love the 997 mainly because it compresses my chest and stomach. I pull if over my hips too but activity makes it ride up, thinking about trying some compression shorts from walmart.
