UnderworksUSA Double Panel Utimate Chest Binder Tank - FTM, Trans Top - 997

I’m excited about this product. So I will start by saying this is definitely a decent alternative to g2b2 binders. I ordered the 3x and this joker fits nice. It does get tight around the ends because it’s meant to go down further but it’s definitely not a hindrance. It tucks in a lot of loose fat and adds more definition to my shape without giving me curves (not that I have any). I suggest trying it. It’s good quality, warm yet has breathable material. Looks of high quality and has a decent weight too it. I good buy!

I’ve tried many different brands of binders and this by far has always been my favorite. I’ve come back to it time and time again and have worn these daily for almost 20 years now. They last for years. In the 20 years I’ve worn this product. I’ve probably only had to order about seven or less and that’s just because I wear them every day and sweat a lot and I’m also a dancer so I go through them a little bit faster as well as wearing them swimming. I like that there are different colors to choose from. I have noticed the quality change over time some for the better some for the worst. Comes in discrete packaging if that’s important to you, and fast shipping if they have it in stock. I like that it comes down over my hips, which adds to a more squared off hip, giving him more masculine physique. Also serves as a stomach flattener, which is nice since I’m a little more on the chubby side. Very good compression quality. Comfortable and does not cut off mid drift creating additional love handles or pinching your fat.

Bought this for FtM binding, worn it about 10 times now, and it works for that. Goal achieved. It gives a good, flat profile, doesn't do the pigeon breast thing, and does nice overall compression on the rest of the torso. It's far better than the jerry-rigged items I've used for binding for ages and seems sturdier in construction and like it will last a good long while. All good things. I will likely buy more.That said, it's not perfect. As others have mentioned, the fabric leaves a lot to be desired, texture-wise. It is a stiff, tight-weave mesh-like material (nylon/spandex). The back is one layer and the front seems to be two. It is rougher than all of my prior compression or shapewear garments I've worn for binding. I am not sensory-sensitive to this sort of thing, but I can easily believe it could be a problem for many who are. To its credit, it gives a good, consistent stretch/constriction and doesn't seem like it will stretch out quickly.Again as others have mentioned, the seams have a "bacon collar" issue. Also, the cut of arm holes assumes a large-armed and broad-backed person — neither of which I am — so there's some considerable gaping there for me. If you're trying to go superstealth and don't have a broad back or thick upper arms, both of these details mean it will show a bit under your shirt.The measurement instructions given worked PERFECTLY for me where the chest is concerned, however it is EXTREMELY long. YMMV, but I am relatively short-torsoed and have to fold back 4" of the bottom and it still tucks deep into my underwear. I plan to hem it to fit my back length better.Overall, I'm pleased and will likely buy more, but it's not perfect. I picked Underworks for the good reviews I got from other transmascs, the fact there is a return policy (as compared to a lot of the popular binder makers that offer shop credit at best), and the straightforward measurement instructions (that proved to be accurate IME). In all of those areas, this product delivered.

I am FTM, so I purchased this for binding purposes. Also, for reference purposes, I am a 38C 1/2. I ordered the extra large binder. This will also offer a comparison to GC2B binders. If that’s you jive and you’re buying this for that purpose, here’s what I can tell you:-If you have worn GC2B binders before (which I have), the material is not like their material. The material is a little more stiff, but softens over time.-This does work well for folks with larger chests. With the other brand mentioned, I found that it didn’t provide me with the flatness I wanted. Their material has more give to it, but this is a FULL binder. Meaning it will help flatten you stomach a bit as well, which makes me feel more comfortable compared to the other binder mentioned.-It’s long, so don’t worry about it riding up. It may for some folks, but it’s long enough for me that I can tuck it into my pants comfortably.-It will cut into your shoulders and armpits for a bit. If you wear binders, you already know that the struggle is real when it comes to binders in that area.I have nothing negative to say about this binder whatsoever aside from the fact that it’s a little loose or “baggy” (around the neck area and armpits) in places, but that’s typical with binders since each size fits every chest and person differently. Plus, you know the drill if you bind. It’s a process. I would definitely purchase another binder like this. I feel less dysphoric in this one compared to the GC2B brand. I was constantly adjusting.
