“Its really comfortable and silky! the coverage is very good for the material its made of, and I can actually breathe in the dang thing, phew! Although I would not recommend this product for people with bigger chest sizes, as it might not have the level of coverage you are desiring, but for me, a dude with a smaller chest, it works pretty good for me. This would probably be really good to work out in as well, the material is very breatheable. Overall five stars from me, I will definitely be ordering more in different colors.”
“Binder fits perfectly and is way more comfortable then my other ones but that's only because it doesn't bind very well, my boobs are clearly visible and not compressed whatsoever, wouldn't recommend if transitioning.”
“Definitely doesn’t bind as well as a binder, I was ordering binders but the entire other company was sold out and I doubt this. Much better than a sports bra, the material feels very nice and it came in 100% recycled and recyclable packaging! Love that always. Got the compression top, compression Tank, and razorback compression top, I’ve only tried the compression top so far but it feels nice, I’d say it feels almost a little to big but I’m not sure, and it has medium high support.”
“I've been wearing this for over a year now and it hasn't lost any of it's compression like actual binders do. In fact, after I wash it, it bounces right back if not better. This is the perfect cross between a sports bra and binder, allowing for more compression yet long, active wear. Never uncomfortable.”
“Initially I was excited about the fit of this top. It definitely doesn't compress much, but it is very supportive and keeps everything bouncing around when running/jumping/moving around which I appreciate! However, the materials and cut of the shoulder/armpit area makes this top soooooo uncomfortable. The bottom edge of the elastic band feels sharp throughout the day and digs into my back, and the armpit/shoulder area feels sharp from the mesh and gives me a rash. I have tried to wear it inside out so the softer material is on my skin, but the armpit area and lower band are still really uncomfortable. I have never worn a bra this uncomfortable- even underwire lol.
For reference, I am 5'4" 170 pounds, chest 40", underbust 31" and I ordered a large.”
“Fits great and feels great. Does not cut under the arms and provide the compression you would want. I had a double mastectomy last year and it feels great against my skin.”
Hi there!

“I chose to order from TomboyX for comfort and safety, and that's what I got. It's more comfortable than my sports bras, which is what I wore exclusively before. It's breathable and comfortable enough that I've slept in it and fits perfectly.
The impact it has on my chest itself leaves something to be desired and I will probably get something more "heavy-duty" (but still safe) at some point. "Moderate compression" is exactly right.
This is probably ideal for someone more physically active than me. It's a good "starter binder". Might be good for someone younger who's still growing and wants some wiggle room, someone likely to gain or lose weight, or someone wanting to alleviate dysphoria while not being fully "out".
The changes are more noticeable from the side than the front. My chest is already on the smaller side so some of what I'm seeing is likely body dysmorphia coupled with the fact that potential changes would be relatively small.”
