So excited. I decided to go with a medium sized white 988. Which is the extreme chest only compression tank with a relaxed midsection. I can't wait to get it in the mail. Things were a little confusing with payments because I had to buy a moneypak card that works off of paypal so my parents wouldn't know. And I had to have it shipped to a friends house. But all the confusion and hard work will be wroth it hopefully! They say you usually receive them in the mail rather quickly, so I will let everyone know when I get it! Anyone else on here ever used the 988?

no but i too have just ordered one

Congrats to both of you! I've never used the 988, but I heard it works really well.
Underworks is indeed quick in shipping out. I got my tri-top within the week I ordered, and it works really well too.

well ive ordered the tri top to as everyone seems to be raving about it. did have the 997 but i think my stomach must have grown and it s getting slightly painful. trouble is im in uk and cant remember what the delivery time is

Good choice with the tri-top. I would suggest that one to anyone.
And I dunno about delivery time for the UK, but I'm sure it won't take too long.

Al James... I hope we both have good luck with our 988. Let me know when you get yours in. I'm having my delivered to a friends house, I'm going by there tonight to see if it's already came in. I doubt it has though. What were your measurements? What size did you decide to go with?

ive gone with the medium i think it might be a bit on the tight side but anything that squashes these flat has got to be worth it.

Yeah same here. And I totally agree. Anything but having to wrap is worth it!

Just make sure it's not too tight. You can really get damage if it's too constricting. Be smart about it.

Good advice Espenoah. I was at the top of the scale for the medium, lower scale for the large. Mainly because of broad shoulders though. So hopefully it will only be a little tight. I wish it would hurry and get here!

As long as it's not painful and you can breathe, it should be okay. I think you'll be fine even if you're at the top of the medium size. I would be concerned if you went to a small or something.

Ok good! I watched a youtube video of a ftm who bought the 988 in a medium and he was way bigger than me. So I was like yeah I'll def. take my chances with a medium. I live in U.S... how long does it usually take for them to make it here from Underworks?

I ordered my binder so long ago I don't remember th exact amount of time, but I know I got it within a week. The time flies by as long as you don't think too much about it though. :3

For real? I heard people getting them in like a day or two! I was hoping for that... ugh. Oh well, I'm so excited! Haha.

I dunno, it probably varies. I might've been one of the longer ones for all I know. XD
But either way, the wait doesn't matter once you finally get it. It's worth it no matter how long it takes.

True statement!

I'm still waiting to get the binder.. ugh I need to practice patience. Anyways.. all I ever wear is a sports bra, but when I wear the binder, are you supposed to wear it with or without?

Do let us know how the 988 works out. I've been thinking of ordering one for some time now. Hate my gut being compressed. Don't know if I would like a tri-top. I've already returned one in exchange for a double front. (ended up cutting it off to about tri top length anyway)

I need a new binder though, as my double front is leftover from before my reduction, so it hardly flattens anything anymore.

I always get a better result without. Besides, it's harder to get on with something underneath, at least for me.

I have the 988 but don't wear it often. I've gotten so used to the Double Front Compression Shirts that not having compression at the mid-section feels weird to me. I also think the 988 cuts alot into me, even when using a rash guard. That said it does compress well.

well got my fed ex e mail saying it should be here monday morning so fingers crossed
