“The top goes high up under your arms and if you have excess fat or stretch marks in that area, it can be sensitive. I plan on returning mine and look into getting something else. I bought this as an alternative to binding but the holes in a binder go about an inch or 2 lower than this compression top.”
“I am trans female to neutral and my breasts are too large for traditional binders. I have been wearing Tomboy X bras for years and I leapt at the chance to try a compression top. I love it! These are comfortable enough to wear all day and are a great substitute for a binder for those of us waiting for top surgery.”
“Purchased to wear post op after breast reduction. Honestly made a huge difference in my recovery after being able to switch from the surgical bras. Very comfortable to wear 24/7 and made a huge difference in helping the swelling go down. Worth every penny! Ended up buying a second one I liked it so much.”
“I’m non binary and generally feel “whatever” about my chest. I don’t wear a traditional binder but I sometimes safely bind using a tape company’s products. I love it but it’s always a process to put on and take off. Otherwise I wear bralettes. I wanted something more that compressed well that wasn’t a binder, that I could put on and take off without having to set aside 20 minutes. This is amazing! It compresses well, more so than a sports bra. It’s comfortable and I love how I look in hoodies!! Crop tops too. My chest looks how I wish it did naturally, smaller but not completely nonexistent. I feel great in it. It’s gender affirming and actually feels like wearing a hug. I do wish it compressed a teeeensy bit more and there is a little under arm chafing. Other than that - I really love and recommend this garment. For reference I’m a 38C and purchased a large. The size chart is accurate! I will definitely be buying more.”
“I’m a larger chested person, DDD’s, and this did okay if your goal is something akin to binding but this is definitely not a binder for bigger chests. For me it works more like a sports bra and is good for that. I can imagine people with smaller chests might be able to use it as a binder.”
