Bench Shirts are LAME. I think they are useless in my opinion. I read an article, I cant remember who wrote it, but he was a retired weight lifter, and he found no use for the thing.
After putting it on he said it was hard for him to breath, and when he lifted 250 lbs off of the bench, it was harder for him to "pull" the weight down (yes he said he had to physically pull the weight down) then it was to press the weight up. When he went to complete his rep, and push the weight up, it litterally flew off of his chest.
Sounds pretty useless to me. Maybe for showing off it may be useful. Who knows.
What is your max bench? I am sure your sought after bench shirt wont really help your with gains for your bench. Maybe I am wrong. Just my opinion on a few articles I have read. If you are looking to get bigger, just try some good hard lifting.
Later.
