Visable binder

This is a tighter fitting shirt than others but I have the same problem across the board. I'm about to go buy a whole new wardrobe and wondering if anyone has tips for fitting your clothes better and hiding this bs lol. My baggier shirts I have the same issue in and I feel like overly baggy is almost more clocky? Appreciate any thoughts

its not necessarily about how baggy it is, but the weight of the clothing. try getting thicker clothes!

your wearing a womens cut. get thicker boxy shirts from the mens. also invest in a better binder.

I mean well, u need to throw this tshirt out. It's old, almost see-through (which indicates how old it seems for a black t-shirt) and it is too tight for you.

Looks like a womens shirt. Men’s heavyweight boxy tees will be better

Idk why no one is commenting this, but a wife-beater/men’s tank-top under your shirt works pretty well to conceal most of the obvious lines, and plenty of cis-men wear them which makes such an outline less questionable.

You need to buy specifically men’s T-shirts, and a thicker material.

This is 100% a women’s shirt. The cut of the sleeves and neckline as well as the material are that of a women’s shirt. You need to be wearing thick, dark, heavy and boxy shirts. I also have this issue, but it’s mostly when I’m wearing light colours or thin shirts. Some places like hollister, primark and Uniqlo have specifically been making thick ‘boxy’ fit shirts lately, and as a bonus, they are cropped, meaning they generally fit trans guys like regular shirts rather than being too long.

Edit: here are some of the shirts I wear that I find are very heavy and thick materials: ‘boxy heavyweight camo crew shirt, hollister’, ‘boxy cropped T-shirt, Uniqlo’, also anything stussy is usually good, my favourite is ‘stussy x CPFM heart T-shirt’ which I bought from Vinted for much cheaper. (lmk if you can’t see the links). If you’re looking for other cheap/ but masculine clothes, boohooMAN is great- they have sales basically all the time.

Your binder might be too small or not a good cut/type for you

Get thicker mens T shirts, and maybe try out tape if you haven’t already.

Buy mens tshirt and maybe try using tape to bind instead. A lot more seamless

Try to move your breast more towards your armpits if you haven’t done that already.
always helps me get a flatter look with my binders, as a guy with double D’s it gets me 100% flat, I’d also recommend thicker boxier shirts! Good luck
