    • Comfort: 5 I'm extremely picky about the comfort of the bras and binders I wear and was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the M801 is. It's just as comfortable, if not more comfortable, than the average sports bra.
    • Effectiveness: 3 I wish I could give it a 3.5 because it actually binds quite well when you first get it but it stretches out a little bit over time. However, I've had mine for about a year now and they still work quite well. I'm a D cup so binding for me is pretty tough, and I'd imagine that if you're any smaller this binder would work better for you.
    • Discreetness: 5 The binder itself can't be seen unless you're wearing a white t shirt or a tank top.
    • Overall: 4 Overall I recommend the M801 for everyday wear

    • Comfort: 5/5
      It's about as comfortable as the average sports bra. There are no pressure points, and it's comfortable to wear for long periods of time.  It's also quite breathable.
    • Effectiveness: 5/5
      While it doesn't completely hide my breasts, it makes them far less noticeable, and a baggy shirt hides the rest.
    • Discreetness: 4/5
      While it won't show under most tee-shirts, watch out if you wear a tight shirt- the zipper will be slightly visible. The wide straps mean that it will be hard to hide under tank tops.
    • Overall: 5/5
  • Other information:
    • It took 12 days from when I placed the order with T-Kingdom for my binder to arrive. With shipping and handling, it cost about $45 CDN.

      Pretty comfortable.  Very breathable and I love that it is only about as long as a sports bra, unlike the Tri-Top.  I am a slightly chubby guy though so it cuts into me a bit around the back/arms, but not enough to be a real problem, and less painful than Underworks binders.
    • Effectiveness: 4/5
    • Discreetness: 4/5
      Doesn't have a roll-up problem, but there is that zipper.
    • Overall: 4/5
      Additional comment:
      This is pretty good for working out in because it is short, breathable, and not as tight as a Tri-Top while almost as effective.  If this helps at all with sizing, I wear a small in both the Underworks' Double Front Compression Shirt and Tri-Top, and I got a medium in this.  I also own a large, which is hardly effective.
      The main drawback to this binder is that I tend to shift more than I do in Underworks binders.  I have to readjust myself once in a while.
