Title: Binder issues
Post by: Envy on April 03, 2011, 07:12:42 PM
I purchased my first binder a few months back from Love Boat. This one to be specific (http://www.lesloveboat.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=57&products_id=128)
I'm a 32B, and after looking at the size chart, I figured a small would be the correct size.
However, when I first tried it on, the top half of my.... er..... "man boobies", just wouldn't flatten!
I thought I put it on wrong, but throughout the past few months I've been wearing it, this problem just won't go away.
It's not like I'm unhappy with it; it DOES reduce the size of those.... things....
but I KNOW they can be flattened more than they have been.

What I'm talking about: http://i1019.photobucket.com/albums/af315/gokugashuu/Snapshot_20110403-1.jpg (http://i1019.photobucket.com/albums/af315/gokugashuu/Snapshot_20110403-1.jpg)
(It's slightly see through so I had to edit it.  :eusa_doh:
Notice that my man boobs are smooshed to the outside under my armpits  :embarrassed:

Do you guys have any suggestions?

i have the same binder and had almost two inches taken out of the straps. i don't know if that's an option for you, depending of course on close to your armpits the binder ends as it is.

I can try that~ Thank you  :)
I'm glad it's something simple like this and not a problem with my body.
