Transmasculine binding: not perfect, but very close. Very very happy.
This Underworks compression shirt is great for me and for my goals.I will attempt to give all of my "stats" & why i ordered the size i chose. I am 5'8" tall, 155lbs. Under the 'bust' i measure 35 inches, 42 across the widest part of my chest. In femme clothing i wear a 36-38 D-DD cup bra depending on manufacturer; my "dress size" is approx a "woman's" size 10. Underworks advised that i take my rib and "bust" measurements, average them, and per the size chart, order a size medium.First off: thanks to all reviewers who mentioned this: step in, pull up! It will stretch over soft hip flesh far more easily than over the bones of your shoulders. You're likely to get "stuck" in it if you pull it over your head!Things to consider about fit. The edges "show" through a thin shirt, especially around the underarms. It also bunches and can ride up a bit through the waist; guys who have a shorter stature and/or slender waist may notice this more. I adjust it a couple times throughout the day but it's hardly a bother. Compared to other binders and methods this is totally acceptable for me. The bottom of the undershirt sits on me about where it does the male model in the photo - mid to low hip. As mentioned i am tall, 5'8". If you're a shorter guy, it will pull down low over your thighs.So does it bind? Yes, very well! - but not perfectly. If I bind down, i do look flat chested, but there is a telltale thickness around my ribs which is unflattering. Binding up, i end up with a small bust-like chest, perhaps an "A" cup. I prefer to bind up for a trimmer v-shaped look around the ribs. Mostly i just look athletic, but if someone were really "looking" for boobs on me, they could probably detect them. Overall, my naturally very full/soft/curvy bust miraculously appears high, tight, hard, athletic, and significantly flattened. A little bonus control in the tummy area encourages engaged core muscles, which is great for holding posture & making the shoulders look broader.Although the binder isn't that perfect boob-erasing miracle we all hope for, my feelings of delight and relief upon seeing my chest firmly compressed while still being able to breathe are reflected in my rating of five stars. FTM guys & transmasculine persons: read reviews, do your research. I wish i could recommend a binder that *perfectly* conceals full D+ cup sizes down to flawless manly flatness while still maintaining a flexible range of motion for a full day's activities, but i have yet to find one. This comes very very close.I am extremely happy with the overall effect and quality of this Underworks undershirt/binder. I have washed it gently several times. It remains flexible & comfortable, and has maintained its firmness. I feel attractive when i wear it, it has increased my confidence dramatically, and i'm ordering three more.

I'm very happy with the item I purchased
When I had questions about my order, the seller responded very promptly and courteously to my emails. They responded within minutes.They also made sure I got my order on time. In fact, they paid 2-day priority shipping, so I received my order 8 days sooner than the estimated delivery date.Furthermore, I'm very happy with the item I purchased. It does a great job at compressing my body so that the gynocomastia doesn't show.For those reading this review, I highly recommend this product if you suffer from gynocomastia. When I received this product, it seemed too small and tight to fit into my body. But then I realized the material can be stretched quite a bit. I had a bit of trouble putting it on, but once it was on, it was sort of comfortable and it hid my gyno from the public. pretty well. I feel a little tight when I have it on, but I feel this is what needs to happen if I really want my body to be compressed; You can't expect to compress your body without feeling tightness. So far I've purchased 3 different compression shirts. The other two shirts feel softer in my body and don't feel as tight as this one, but they don't compress my body enough to hide my gyno. So far, I prefer this product over the others I have tried. You will have some difficulty putting it on and taking it off, but trust me, when you're wearing it will hide your gyno and it will be worth feeling a little tight. :D

My one year review
I have to say, I’m really impressed with this shirt. First, a big thank you to the reviewer who mentioned the “step in, pull up” method it makes it so much easier to get it over your hips rather than trying to pull it over your shoulders. Without that tip, I probably would’ve gotten stuck trying to pull it over my head!I don’t quite understand why some people say it’s hard to put on, because I didn’t find that to be true at all. Yes, it’s tight, but it’s still easy to get into, and the compression is fantastic. It really does make a noticeable difference.A couple of things to note about the fit: the edges can show through a thin shirt, especially around the underarms, and it does tend to bunch up and ride up a bit around the waist. Guys with a shorter frame or slimmer waist might notice this more.That said, the effect is great—I've been told it improves my posture, and it really helps smooth everything out, making my body look more uniform instead of having bulges in certain areas. For reference, I’m 265 lbs, and this works just fine for someone my size.It also does a great job of keeping sweat at bay. I do find myself adjusting it a few times during the day, but it’s hardly a hassle.In terms of quality for the money, I’d say this is a fantastic purchase. It feels sturdy, but still flexible, and it offers great compression without feeling uncomfortable. The price is really reasonable for the quality you get, especially compared to other similar products out there.I’ve followed the washing instructions, and after 1 year of gentle washes, it’s still holding up really well. It remains comfortable and the firmness is still intact. I honestly feel more confident and attractive when I wear it, so I’m definitely ordering more. Highly recommend it!

Different than they used to be.
Super disappointed. I’ve been getting these tanks for at least 10 years.About 6 months ago, I placed my normal order and the tanks I received didn’t provide as much compression as they usually do. I thought it was a fluke so I returned them and got replacements. Same thing, barely any compression. So I figured maybe it’s something with the ones from Amazon and ordered them directly from Underworks website. Same deal, not much compression.I reached out to Underworks and they said they haven’t made any changes to the item.I attempted to let a few months pass and ordered two more. Again, not much compression. Something has changed and they’re not the same as they were even a year ago. They lack the support and compression they once offered.
