I’m conscious that if I were a size 4XL rather than 2XL in clothes or had a larger chest with a larger cup size, I could potentially be sized out, especially since these binders require you to size up. Typically, I’m a size 2XL, and I also don’t have a large chest, but I ended up needing a 4X GC2B binder. However, it’s important to note that more than one of our team members had to size up. Thankfully, I can have both with my GC2B binder. I’m someone who opts for comfort nowadays, but as I learned in the sizing process, comfort doesn’t need to necessarily be sacrificed when binding. Without the care team’s help, I would’ve absolutely picked the wrong size and continued to wear a chest binder a size too small. During my first time binding years ago, I wore a tank top binder that in hindsight was far too tight. It turns out that I’ve been wearing binders too tight all along. Though I could’ve done this as a customer, I likely would have guessed based on their sizing chart. Much like the gender binary, my body has always fit outside standard sizing measurements, falling in-between sizes, which has made online shopping a total nightmare.įortunately, when invited to review a GC2B half binder, I was able to communicate directly with GC2B’s customer care team to help specify my chest size. However, a barrier to binding has been sizing. Though as parts of pre-pandemic life open back up, I do have a desire to bind again.
(Coincidentally, my first binder happened to be a GC2B tank binder since I heard about them on Tumblr, although that has since been donated.) Being at home, I’ve gotten more comfortable in my own body. I haven’t binded in over two years since the pandemic began. If you’re looking for a new binder and are researching different binder brands, check out reviews below on GC2B binders from some FOLX team members.
Any gender (including trans people who are femme of center) may have the desire to have a flat chest for whatever reason. Binding isn’t just for transgender men! Many trans people feel the need or want to bind their chests for gender affirmation or aesthetics. Fortunately, a chest binder flattens the chest without needing top surgery, which can still be preferable even for those who don’t feel so dysphoric.
