I need help. I had an XL 978 from underworks, and with weight loss it got too big and omg not nearly enough compression. I ordered a L 997, and it's so tight I can't even get it on. The company? Not helpful.

I am having a freak out at work because there is no flatness. :'(

If the tag is still on it I know they let you exchange it for a bigger size. You can try getting a XL.  I got my medium the other day..i think it might be too big actually but besides that i put it on by putting my legs through it first and doing the pull up method. Not sure if you tried i that way?

They said that the style I have (978), size XL is the same as the 997's XL. The XL is too big in the 978. Are they maybe not right about the sizing on the styles being different?

Well Iv'e seen a lot of people follow their sizing charts and it just didn't work for them some being two sizes even to big for them OR to small. I would say its probably worth a try getting a size up.  They may say they are the same 'size' but that doesn't mean they don't fit differently.

It is unfortunate that Underworks does not have the same size chart for all of their binders.  For example, I think it is natural that if you have been wearing a 997 that you would assume that you can order a 983 and the sizes will be the same, but they are not.

You have to look at the size chart for each binder.
