So here are some updates.
First, my moving out timeline isn’t certain yet. So I don’t know when I would be able to order belt. But it is certain it will be around late this year to early next year
Secondly, choosing a belt is another consideration I’d need to make carefully.
Now I am seeing Fancy Steel as good brand, but some said MySteel is better. As pre-op trans I would need special kind of belt, which MySteel markets as “Transformation” belt and Fancy Steel markets it as “Sissy” (I hate this wording Fancy Steel puts, but they seem to be making more stylish looking belt at least, as well as more affordable choice than My-Steel (As Fancy Steel uses AUD as currency and My-Steel uses Euro, their pricing in number seems similar but actual cost may be lower with Fancy Steel)
I saw one product from Fancy Steel https://fancysteel.com/collections/transgender-chastity-belts/products/sissy-hybrid-chastity-belt
Which looks quite interesting and kind of good enough for my purpose to deal with bottom dysphoria. Its part that covers private parts is made of stainless steel (I guess or any metal that is good for long term wear) and has leather or biothane strap that has multiple color choices.
Pros of My-Steel Transformation Belt

- I think many people here uses My Steel belt, so I guess it might be easier to get help?
- I feel its design would offer high security
- Measuring kit available so I can measure myself easier than Fancy Steel
- Their TRAVEL system may let me take belt with me while travelling easier. Going through metal detector with belt may be harder in some cases.
Pros of Fancy Steel “Sissy” with cup design

- Offers kind of modular design that might work better to replace “cup” part with female shield after post-op
- Engraving would look better than My-Steel if artwork is horizontally wide. I wish I can engrave cute things like angel wings
Pros of Fancy Steel Hybrid Belt:

- Cost is lowest among three
- Multiple style of rear options, which may make going to toilet easier
- “Rocket Tip” Urine tube which may help me urinate easier in belt
- Custom strap color available so I can have a color I want! (Since it’s something I would be wearing long term, I would get one that looks good too.)
