Trans Guys and Wearing Vests

FOR FTM TRANS MEN AND ASSIGNED FEMALE NON-BINARY - We all know of what binding is. We all know how annoying it can be and the health risks it can carry. We all have tried our own tricks to find alternatives. One for me was wearing vests in my everyday wardrobe (not dress vests, but denim or faux leather.) I wanna know who else out there has done this and what they feel it has done for them.
