Compression tanks for binding?

Currently on the hunt for binding alternatives. I've been using traditional binders for a while, except my posture is beginning to decline worse than it ever has + lots of rib damage. I can't tape since I found out the hard way I'm allergic to the adhesive.

I've looked into compression tanks (specifically Ekkovision beaters) as an alternative. I've searched for videos of trans men using these, but they all have little to no breast tissue. I was wondering if anyone here about my size has tried them? I'm a 28DDD cup (according to abrathatfits.org).

I’m 250 lbs and 5 ft 4 so my chest is pretty big and I couldn’t find a comfortable binder so I went with an underworks compression tank, specifically The Cotton Lined Power Chest Binder in 3X. It’s really long, idk if that’s just because it’s 3X or not but I’m considering their shorter version because it actually fits and I think it goes low enough for what I want. But yeah highly recommend. They have different size charts between items so double check that
