My coesrtmaker tells me that he does not want to raise the coesrt up too high on the chest for males, because it would stand off. On the other hand I experimented a bit and found, if the coesrt is front laced, it could be nicely fitting the chest and be high cut (half chest at least). The lacing allows to exactly shape it to your contours.There have been overbust male coesrts featured on the male coesrtry blog, but I forgot from who that was. I'll need to search it.
