I'm a 32DD and use an Underworks binder. But still feel like people can tell I have large breasts, even when dressed in layers. Any advice?
Top surgery in 2016, I hope!
I've heard gc2b works great for bigger chested guys. I'm a 32F and am looking into buying one myself but someone who is around your size (either 30 or 32DD) commented on my instagram post saying that his gc2b binder did a much better job at flattening his chest and making it look like he has pecs.

Thanks for the tip, bro!!
Couple of considerations:
- Make sure you're wearing the right size. I was between a medium and a large, and had to go up in size due to my shoulders being so broad. This made it so I could not get completely flat - so if this is the case for you, you may need to look at other brands that are sized differently. If you switch to GC2B, read as many threads as you can on the sizing. I never owned one, but from what I have read, it's very hit or miss.
- Make sure you're wearing the right style for your body type. I do not recommend the tri-top for bigger guys. It hurts and it looks awkward.
- Consider what you're layering with. I would wear binder > tanktop > t-shirt > maybe another layer, to get completely flat. If you can find a tighter sports bra, consider doubling up and wearing that and the binder. It should help you be more in control of where things end up once the binder is on.
- Consider positioning. The first time I started binding, I just pulled it on like a shirt and went about my business. You should be moving your chest so that it's pushed to a flatter position. For me, the "up and out" towards the armpit region worked best.
