Guess what? I am going to order my binder as soon as I get some input.
I think I am going to order the Underworks Tri-Top. Is this good? Will it give me a completely flat profile (I'm a 34A, pretty small)?
Tri Top vs. Double Front?
Any other brands that are better? What do yall suggest?
You're pretty small, so I'd say it will work well. :)
I have the double front and I like it quite a bit. My only problem with it is now that I'm packing with a Mango, the binder kind of gets in the way. I stretch it down into my boxers so it doesn't roll up...anyway, it just gets a little annoying because I have to adjust my binder after I piss. You wouldn't have that type of problem with the tri-top...but I'm not sure it would bind your chest as well. The only thing I would warn you about is this: if the tri-top rolls up the same way the double front does, you're gonna get pretty annoyed with it. Rolling up means discomfort AND less tightness, so less of a bind.
It doesn't make me COMPLETELY flat...you're still gonna want to stay away from some fabrics. I don't think anything is going to make you completely flat (other than surgery). But it definitely helps. I don't actually know how big I am, but I'm pretty small. Binding also helps to make your chest less...cushiony. So it's no longer a dead give away when you hug somebody.
A really great thing about binding with an Underworks binder is that you get to the point where you don't even notice you're wearing it. That doesn't mean they're comfortable...but it does mean they don't hurt you. You bind with an ace bandage or something and it squeezes and pinches and gets in the way.
Oh, and I recommend stepping into your binder like a pair of pants and pulling it up. They're really, really hard to get on if you act like it's a shirt. Take it off like that, too.
Thanks guys, ordered it :) I'll let ya know when it gets in
Something happened with my Prepaid Visa. Card was declined :'( Guess I'm still workin on it..
Huh, that's weird. What about mail ordering with a money order?
Brady - don't pay a second time. Underworks has done this to other people before, they mess up your credit card the first time and then charge you twice. Get it straightened out before you try to buy it again. They will fix it if they see they've charged you twice, but it's a pain in the neck. They're not dishonest, just not very organized.
I will probably end up doing the money order thing. I emailed em, telling em what happened. They haven't replied? And there isn't a phone number?
I think my card might have been declined because it might be a pre-paid Visa debit card and they are looking for a credit card. But, it has always worked in the past on other websites? At least I think it has?
BTW, love the new pic Will.
What happened to me with Underworks was somehow my order didn't go through, and so there I was waiting 3 weeks or more for a binder and then had to order all over again.
So I just checked my balance on my card again, and now the purchase went through. Hopefully, I will get it in, if they don't screw up again lol
Sometimes you have to register a prepaid card before you can use it on the internet. You should try that, if it doesn't go through. All you have to do is go to the website on the back of your card.
