Binder, not binding. If this is in the wrong area please move it to the right one, with my apologies ^^;
Well, I am looking at the FTM at Underworks site as of currently and debating as to which binder style may be best suited towards me. I am large and already have a bit of trouble binding, using the 997 style.
Now I am currently looking at the 998 style, and was wondering if anyone could give me their opinions of it? Is it good? If so, how good is it, and is it good for larger or smaller guys? (I am also chubby)
Thanks!

I think I used 998 before...IT SUCKED!
What you can do is ask how much lycra is in the binders. If there's one with 30% like the 997 get it. The more lycra the better bind.

the 997 is the only one Ive used so far, but it works fine for me.
Ive got pretty wide shoulders/hips and I shouuuuld be around a b or c (not too sure, sorry =[ ). the medium is the size I use, but its really only because of my hips and shoulders. I had a small at one point and I couldn't get it on at all xD
if youre unsure about sizing you could probably phone in with your measurements and theyd help you out with finding the right fit

And 998 is the shirt model, in case you weren't sure ^^;;

I was 38C and I had to double-bind with a Double Front Compression Shirt from Underworks. Sometimes that's just what you have to do, if you're bigger. You're doing the whole "pull-down-and-outward" method to get your chest as flat as you can, right?

http://www.underworks.com/images/998.jpg I get lycra and spandex confuzled for eachother sometimes... I got 993, it was pretty bad. The shirtish looking one seems as though it would be less spandex, and also harder to get on (I still have to step into mine).
