I have a problem which might be from loveboat (as they could have changed the size or something so who knows). Strangely the older grey one fits well, but the whites do not. But let's say for the purposes of the discussion that they have not. Got two binders in the same size that I got another that fits really nicely.

So with T, does your binder size go UP or DOWN?  The new ones are too tight. It isn't terrible but still tight and hard to get off.

I have built up muscle in my back and shoulders so here would be that my size should have increased.
But I have heard your chest could get smaller thru redistribution of fat (though I have only been on T for 6 weeks).

I am wondering if I should try and sell them and get a bigger size, or hang on as they could still get smaller.
Ideas. I hope I explained stuff ok.

I need a bigger size now, my shoulders became broader. But my old binder still fits if I really want to, I think it's because my chest became a bit smaller, once my mom even asked me why am I wearing a binder in the house and I wasn't.
According to the size chart I need a bigger binder, but the old still fits, with broader shoulders and smaller chest it seems to be equal. I hope it's understandable 

Thanks Jared. It's very understandable. I think according to the idea of cup size that would go down, as it is a relationship. Of course, I will never ever do cup size again.
Don't think that has changed yet. That's movement of fat around. The shoulder from muscle growth that's muscle growth. I think a really early T thing for me anyway.

I need a smaller size underworks binder now. I was wearing a large pre-T then after awhile a medium was more appropriate. It depends on your body. If your chest remains the same size but your upper back and shoulder muscles get larger then you might need to go up a size. If you lose weight and don't really build more muscle then going smaller would happen.

I went up a size (from an Extra Small to a Small). A medium would probably be ideal for me now, but my binder has stretched out enough so it's doable.

My upper back/torso got wider from T, so yep.

(Underworks binders.)

Went up.
I wore a medium for comfort but I could fit in a small.
Now I hardly fit in the medium. I should be wearing a large.
But I don't bind anymore so I don't know how a large would look.

Even with going up a shirt size because of shoulders, I've gone down a binder size. Well, kind of. (Underworks) I wore a small 2 years ago, went up to a medium a year later, and then back down to a small around 4 months on T. Then again, I'm back to wearing my first binder so it /is/ stretched out to hell.

Thanks guys. Seems useful info. I don't think the brand matters so much as you have the same issues. I have a loveboat so I suppose makes me want to keep wearing it. I stretched it sidewise and that helps a bit.
