So today my first binder came through. It feels great. Crazy how one thing can give you so much confidence. I even walked to the shop half a mile away from home, and i never walk anywhere cos i hate people seeing me.

Felt amazing.

I have the underworks tri-top. It rolls up a lot though, does this happen a lot or is it cos im not a skinny guy?

Heres me with my binder on, can hardly tell i have a 36dd chest.

Just longing to start T now

You and me both bro. So far, you certainly pass pre-T therefore T will work wonders for you.
What size is your binder? I kinda need to get a new one since the one sent to me by Big Brothers Binder Program sent me one that looks like it won't last me very long.

Cheers dude.

I got a size large. My chest measurement was 37 and that's sort of between a medium and large. So I went with the large.
Glad I did cos it was a nightmare to get on. Haha.

It doesnt roll up, up, just sort of over my stomach just lying a bit rolled up under my chest. Just makes it a bit too tight. I may look to get a full t-shirt one, has anyone got a t-shirt type one from underworks and are they ok to use with a bigger chest?

I use the tank style from underworks. It works for my larger chest and somewhat of a belly.

Is that the 997? How far down does it come? enough to not roll up over my belly?

I use the 997 (small) from Underworks and I bring it all the way down to cover genital area because it helps it to look my ideal version of flat but it rolls up when I am walking if I am not too careful. This is annoying but I don't know any other binder that would be more effective in terms of flatness.
I am male because I say so and nothing more.
I don't have to look or act like one therefore.

The 997 is great when pulled down as far as it can go. Rolling up is a common problem with both the 997 and the tri-top. I have this one pair of pants that is really tight right at the waist, and keeps mine from rolling up perfectly (can't do that with the tri-top, though).

Anyway, you look great! Congratulations on getting your first binder and the confidence boost!

Btw, in my experience they get easier too put on after a few times. Like they stretch out a small amount, then stay there without loosening any further. Or maybe I just got better at putting it on.

Yes, I'm using the 997. I'm 5'4" and wear a medium and a large. I pulled them down as much as I can. The large stats down pretty well. The medium I usually have to adjust once during the day. They come down around my hips and just about level with my genital area.

I'm a bigger guy with a bigger chest and I got the tshirt (crewneck) kind from underworks and it gives you a bit of a uniboob after you've been wearing it for a while but it's like leaps and bounds more comfortable on the shoulders than the tanktop kinds and I've never had a problem with it rolling up.

I am a 44 H and I use the underworks cotton concealer chest binder. It works great. I'm not skinny, so I do have slight moobs, but I think that adds authenticity. I'd be glad to post a pic if you're interested.
Because being awesome just wasn't enough.

Figured it out the first time: 1994
Figured it out again: 2002
Figured it out again again: 2008
Figured it out and told someone: 2011
Came out to parents: June 2014
Came out to closest friends: June 2014
First outing as Erik: June 28th 2014
Came out to conservative sister: September 2014

Yea I get slight ride up with the tri top and the under arm wings are a problem for me too. Gives away that I'm wearing something under my t shirt. Yea bro let me know how it is, really want the t shirt type.

All I can say is what a difference.  I'm trying to figure out 1. How to adjust things perfectly 2. How to do a pic on here for a before n after. BUT ... w the tee shirt no real boobage. The results are comparable to the tritop in my opinion. I needed my roommate's help to get it on but the results are amazing.

On another note I got the Doc Johnson Pack it lite in the same order n was highly impressed. Moulding was fantastic n the squish factor is close to perfect.

1) start with the push down and out to the sides method.

jamesdoran

I have 36 DD sized chest and I use the 997. It does tend to roll up a little bit but it's better if you tuck into your pants and wear a belt. I push my chest down and out but I still hate the way my chest looks, so I don't wear t-shirts, just button ups...kinda sucks but meh
