I got the 997 double front compression shirt and no matter what i do it rolls up
i've done the whole tuck it into your boxers and pants with a tight belt
and even used safety pins to pin it to my boxers but it ends up giving me a huge wedgie because it pulls up my boxers
has anyone made an adjustment to theres to stop it from rolling?
I tried, to no avail, to stop it from rolling up.
I finally just cut the bottom portion off. Worked like a charm after that.

how far up did you cut it?
did you sew it to make it liek b4 but shorter?
Pull the bottom edge up over the binder, so that you're wearing it "double" over the chest, I've also heard that if you use the "step into it" method that you can wear it so the the bottom is "under" the top half of it, making it even more "stable".
I cut the bottom 7 inches or so off of a XS 997.
I didn't sew it, and never had any issues with unraveling or fraying. The material is just such that it isn't an issue. Wore it daily for quite some time, including several trips to the pool, without any further issues with rolling up, or fraying on the bottom.
I actually found it to be FAR more comfortable once the compression on my stomach was gone, in addition to the rolling issue.
I think where to cut it would depend on your body shape.
Yeah, that's a big issue. My rolls up all of the time, however I realized that if you wear a tank top underneath your binder it doesn't roll up as much. In my case I wear a 988 underneath my 997. It works pretty good, and it keeps my chest really flat. It might be uncomfortable for most though. But give it a try.
It really depends on your body shape too.
