There are not great options in that size. And they start getting expensive!
Ewa Michalak is probably the best of the brands. Their FB line is likely to fit Omega-shaped narrow and projected with close-set center full boobs. They also have a nursing bra (woohoo!), But it's not reccommended to invest in those till your boobs have settled.
You are getting into custom order territory for EM. So for sizing, you should probably communicate with them directly.
For lounging, you may have more luck Frankensteining a bra. I'm only a 30FF/G so I have no idea how effective this would be for you. What I do is find a non wired bra that fits on the boobs, then add a support to make the band more appropriate.
My method is to find a bra with a sheathed elastic underneath and replace the elastic with an adjustable insert. I like to use these hooks withthis kind of webbing. You can sew little slots along the webbing to make adjustments (I'm not really sure how to explain that part).
The Frankenstein bras are not really supportive, but they do keep the girls somewhat contained.
How about a DIY harness solution? Works great for me!
Here's all you need:
10-12' of 1" webbing - Here's 30' and it's only $7.85 - get creative and use the extra for additional straps. Get it here: https://www.amazon.com/Strapworks-Heavyweight-Polypropylene-Webbing-Strapping/dp/B01KTVG0KI/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1536581470&sr=8-3&keywords=webbing&dpID=41Rlrv4YwXL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch&th=1&psc=1
And some heavy duty adjustable buckles - here's 10 for $8:

I assume you have an o-ring. Cut two pieces whatever length you need (lightly burn the ends with a lighter to stop fraying), double loop them through the o-ring and attach the buckles. Then pick out your favorite coffee table, footstool, pillow, etc. Attach straps first, then slide flared toy through the o-ring and mount up.
If you go this route, let me know how it works out.
Super easy.
My advice:
There you go, now you have everything you need.
I made bracelets, keychains, zipper pulls....hell I still have many bracelets in my stock because I made more than I was able to sell.
Warning: You may blister your hands doing this. I recommend you take it easy at first and don't try to make 10 in a day or your hands will hate you.
Tried with the Needle nose pliers like the guy in the store suggested, not much luck, all six on both boots were really rough and cutting pretty deeply into the tongue, not impressing in the tongue, but cutting. I ended up buying one of these but it's like 2 weeks for delivery.
Will be taking them to one of the local cobbler shops in a couple days to have them do it. I really want to wear these, but don't want them all chewed up.
I would go with a plastic buckle that allows the strap to be cinched down.
I think the part you are looking for is normally called a "buckle and slider". I don't know if you are missing the buckle end, or the slider, but they are usually sold in pairs. If you measure the size of your straps you should be able to figure it out. Maybe half inch? http://www.amazon.com/50-Side-Release-Plastic-Buckles/dp/B003R0RTEA/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hg_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=0CKMEGYHKDGMP4PQ7J4S
I think the only difference between the normal ones and the ones you might find on a helmet is that the helmet ones are shaped so as to have no protuberances or other things that might irritate your chin. So, if you go with a generic one you may have to modify it a little with some foam or some sugru or something.
That's the 1" Alu-max buckle - I've used some different ones but theirs has a great finish and holds up the best. here they are on amazon, but I can't remember where I bought mine
I ordered these from Amazon, and though they might be shitty chinese made clips, they seem to be pretty sturdy and hold up well. I kinda wish I could find metal clips like that though. I feel like a good crack on a rock would bust ANY plastic one, no matter where it's made
Nylon webbing and 2" buckles and you can make 5 of those.
Here's nylon webbing and buckles for the same price as the sling
This is my list.
4x2" Industrial Velcro
Tri-Glide Slide
1.5" Wide One Wrap Velcro
Other people use a D-Ring instead but I prefer the look of the tri-glide slide instead. You need to make sure to use Industrial Velcro for the attachment of the DAS.
Here is what mine looks like
Would this work?
Paxcoo 60Pcs Swivel Snap Hooks and D Rings for Lanyard and Sewing Projects (1” Inside Width) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077DZWJD6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_gJ3aBb4C0EH69
Just go on amazon and look for plastic buckles and straps. https://www.amazon.com/Coopay-Plastic-Buckles-Include-Tri-Glide/dp/B076FW278P Find the width that you like and make em.
I actually just saw a blogger I follow post about these little thingies that you can clip to your chain inside your bag to adjust the length. I just used one on my Chanel woc because the strap was too long. Here’s the link on AMAZON
40 Fastex Buckles for $7.49
Here's the part of I think you're missing: The product page on the website is somewhat commingled... All vendors selling a product are attached to the same ad, but the customer gets to choose the vendor they want to buy from. Here's an example:
https://www.amazon.com/25-National-Molding-Mojave®-Plastic/dp/B00IDBJH9I
See where it says "Sold by Dahc and Fulfilled by Amazon." Amazon is selecting a vendor (Dahc) for you. But if you look under the Add to Cart button, it says Other Sellers on Amazon. You could click there and buy it from Country Brook Design Inc.
If you use the main Add To Cart button, you WILL get the buckles set to Amazon from Dahc and NOT from Country Brook Design. If you click the smaller add to cart by Country Brook Design, you will get the product they sent to Amazon and not the one from Dahc. You the customer decides who you buy from, but most people ignore that and just click the main Add To Cart button.
It's always important to pay attention to which vendor you're buying from. Check out each vendor's ratings by clicking where it says "New (2) from $10.49". you may see where other customers have had issues with a particular vendor.
I hope this helps clear it up.
What brand is she wearing? Elila or Goddess? Is the 46G recently measured? What are her measurements / what does the size calculator say?
​
In UK 46G she could get the Elomi Beatrice in 44GG and use an extender. Goddess Keira Nursing bra comes in US 46i, ditto the Elila 1613 Cotton Nursing Softcup.
​
If neither of them work, the Elila 1515 Jacquard Front-Closure bra would be worth looking into. The 1515 is not a nursing bra, wrangling your tits back into it while holding a baby at the same time is pretty much impossible, but it goes up M cup and a 50 band and thus is designed to support very large breasts.
​
For something pretty / more fun, Molke would be an option, but I don't know how well they scale on large cup / large bandsizes. https://www.molke.co.uk/pages/size-advice
​
I second the recommendation to convert regular bras into nursing bras. It is relatively easy to do. A bra that would probably work well for this would be the Elila 2311 because it has stretch lace in the cup. This bra comes with matching panties up to 5XL. She only has to get clips that are more durable than normal nursing bra clasps. I would recommend quick release buckles that are used in outdoor gear similar to this.
I realize that this isn't to scale, but this would be a good place to start: https://www.amazon.com/Ford-Unisex-adult-Burst-Seatbelt-Black/dp/B000RY8A5Q/ref=cts_ap_3_vtp
Or paint this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N632BF6/ref=sspa_dk_detail_3?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B07N632BF6
You can do shrink wrap.. but it's hot. But cheap..
I use vet wrap but it's short and can get expensive if you play with it a lot.
How about straps and buckles?
Something like this
With buckles like these
Just a thought.
It can be but if you are packing and unpacking you have to adjust the straps every time. It was too much trouble for me so I swapped to these
From Amazon. Here's the link.
SouthBeat Paracord Buckles Adjustable D Shackles Used for 550 Paracord Survival Bracelet Making 2Pcs (Antique Bronze) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0776CGL6X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_LqE6BbG879KEK
Amazon sells them too.
Looks like the Coaxsher molle chest rig is the right path for you. It's basically admin pouch with fold down, and you can add a radio rig to the shoulder strap easily enough.
If you want cheap, there's also this generic stuff from China on Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/Outdoor-Universal-Tractical-Harness-Essentials/dp/B07G7WQXGG
You can probably rig the straps to hang an admin pouch also if you really need it.
If you really really want to make your own, there's this:
https://www.amazon.com/BTNOW-Plastic-Tri-glide-Backpack-Repairing/dp/B075ZTLKJC
It's basically black strap and some buckles to make your own custom straps. You basically need one strap across your lower chest, and one strap around back of your neck. The upper can hang from your T&T's upper D-rings. You can probably get some MOLLE D-rings (Grimloc clones) for the bottom strap.
there are better pictures of what this is here https://www.pinkcherry.com/sports-cuffs-tethers-kit
to make two you would need about 100" of webbing 1" or 3/4 for 50" for each. Sew one end to make a loop. 2 key chain rings (one for each end of the straps)
then a triglides probably with tension locks like this
or buy webbing and this kit. plus snap hooks.
I've bought from this vendor for making something similar. it could be the cats meow if you needed a bunch of these. I preferred cam locks over the triglide. Look at pricing If i remember, buying 4 pcs of something for a dollar or two more you could get 25 pcs. Same went for the webbing if you break it into a cost per yard, and a reel longer to a point would get more expensive.
These are the two products that I purchased to make the end system. 1" triglide slides and 1" tension lock triglide but you might want to look for a heavier duty version of the tension lock triglide as we have broken one mid playtime. Apparently I was moving too much and when my Dom went to tighten the strap (with me pulling against the strap), the adjuster broke. Only happened once so maybe it was just a faulty piece.
If Amazon ever puts the head strap back on sale for $9.99 you should get a couple of them. Why? Because you can remove the mounting plate from the straps without cutting them. This is important because it means you can make a chest strap for about $10-15, depending how fat you are. I haven't done it yet because I just figured this out the other day and am still working out the details.
You can buy 10yds of 1.5" nylon webbing with 30 matching sized buckles for $17 along with a ten pack of 1.5" triglides for $7. Snip and sew, and you've got a chest harness.
The one thing I'm working out is the chesty they sell has two straps attached to the mounting plate that go over your shoulders to a three point to stabilize it from bouncing. Since the head strap's plate only has the one strap slot I was thinking of putting the three point up front. I'm not sure if this will be uncomfortable or not, or get in the way of zippers and the like. Thoughts?
For pants you are going to need navy cargo pants which can be picked up from amazon or your local army surplus store. Your best bet for the shirt would be under armor or similar compression shirt. Unless you're willing to settle for black, the shoulder holster is going to be tricky. This is what I could find on amazon Brown Black. Leg holster Gloves.
A rock climbing harness can be expensive and now look like you want it to, I would suggest leaving it out (you will be more comfortable walking around, trust me) or getting some nylon webbing and making your own. Good luck with your gender bent Leon!
First, double check the warantee, some retailers like REI might be more customer friendly about claims than the maker, but it looks like it pretty much will leave you getting a $2 replacement part. Buy 3, if it broke once, it most likely will again.
Second option, Sea to Summet have no-sew for adjustable buckles if the whole body breaks.
Third option, find a shoe maker, ask them about bag options, or find some appropriate buckles and have them replaced that way. This will most likely void what is left of the warantee, but it seems that that covers defects in manufacture, which if not discovered at this point are probably nonexistent in their view. A worthless warantee is not worth worrying about, you own the bag, make it so you can use it.
