Seeking Recommendations for a High-Quality Binder

I’m 4 years on testosterone and pass more so than I used to but still get misgendered every now and again. I think it’s due to my chest not exactly being the most flat even with a binder? I have a top surgery consult in September and they said I’d also have to wait 6 months after the consult for my surgery. In the mean time does anyone know where I can get a really good compressing binder? Like for larger chest that are not gc2b cause the last couple years in my opinion haven’t been the best quality? I’m not sure. But the stitching isn’t as good as before. But yeah just trying to find a website that a bit different than gc2b this time. Thank you! (Pls nothing from Amazon lolol dangerous)

My binder from For Them is the best one I have, expensive but the sizing on their site is reliable and I get almost as flat as I can with a safe level of compression. The one that has flattened me out the most was by sizing down with Untag but that's not such a safe long term solution.

Gc2b has definitely gone down in quality over the years I've noticed it as well unfortunately, would recommend checking out binder brands like Spectrum Outfitters, Underworks, and Shapeshifters, good luck with your top surgery too!
