Is Under Armor good for binding?

Okay, so I can't get a binder right now but I've been really self conscious lately about my chest. I know ace is really bad to use along with tape, but what about under armor? If so, which type is best? (Women's, men's, tank, shirt, etc) If not is there a way I can bind without a binder? I'm just constantly looking down at my chest all the time at school and its getting on my nerves. I just want to feel secure.

Thank you

Well I guess it would depend on how large your chest is. If you have a really small chest I'm sure it would work. I am an A cup and I tried to use an under armour shirt one time and it did not work at all. So I just stuck with using a sports bra. This is the shirt I used, maybe if you tried some sort of tank top it would work better?

Under Armour makes a sports bra with a compression fit for about 30.00

I'm planning to get one myself for when I'm working to hide my development. It's rated for A-C cup, and I'll let you know how it works for me, assuming I do manage to get one.

I use a combination of a tank I found at Kohl's in women's that's light compression with none of that shelf nonsense, in the proper size to fit me, with a Starter compression shirt from Walmart over it (one size below "proper" fit). It works pretty well, especially under a button down shirt. Not board-flat, but button line on men's shirt doesn't pull away flat.

Ok, I got the sports bra I mentioned (It's called "Gotta have it" and it's by under armour), and it takes me from a B-cup to as flat as before I was ever in the same room as an estrogen pill. Also, it's completely invisible under a tee shirt, or is for me anyway. Works a charm :) Like I said though, they only claim it works up to a c-cup, so it won't be for everyone.

You might go to a store like Sportsmart where you can try them on. I found out that they actually make me look worse and didn't like them. BTW, some guys wear them under the binder to make the binder more comfortable.

Hah! Told ya. It feels like a tight shirt, but it's still comfy and does the job. I want more of them too, but I could only afford the one this trip. We needed new snow gear for the little one too ^_^
