Does anyone have recommendations for binders for busty folk? I'm a questioning genderqueer and would like to try out binding and packing for the first time. Problem is I'm plus sized and busty, I wear a 38DDD bra. I need a heavy duty binder. I've looked at T-Kingdom and Underworks. T-kingdom seems like they have one that would hold me relatively flat but I've read some bad reviews on the durability and I don't know if I will fit in to their sizes. Underworks doesn't seem like they're going to bind me enough but I'd love some testimonials. Help?
Binders for the exceptionally busty?

Underworks is the only brand I trust for larger chests.
T-Kingdom is good for smaller chests. Underworks is the workhorse of the binder world. I've seen many "before and after" up to H-cup compression and many in-between.
I would say, though, that the tri-top is the only one worth anything, though.

Underworks is by far the best.
Whether you'll prefer the tri-top or the double front is more to do with your figure, though. I'm a 36DD, and I found that my belly didn't extend far enough to make the double front look like it was working, and I now live inside my tri-top; cheap(ish), durable, strong, flat and killing my back (not as much as my double front, but ye know...).

Thank you! The tri-top looks like it will squish my gut out of the bottom so I'm going with the longer double front.

I would warn you against this - many find it uncomfortable and it rolls up from the hips. It's also a not very breathable material and it will cook you alive.

You can always cut the tri-top shorter - but I've seen it used by very large people without an issue.
Also, the double-front has a serious reduction in ability to bind and I couldn't recommend it to anyone with a larger chest, I've heard many people dissatisfied with its ability to bind larger chests and the length really isn't a benefit.
If you get the double, you might have luck by taking the bottom and bringing it up to the neckline and sewing or pinning it there - giving you great relief from the heat and better compression - some have said this was enough to make up for it being weaker (but that person also said they would not buy it again).
