SIZING

Our sizing applies to all 2b styles.• Please keep in mind that these garments are sized and graded for compression purposes, so they are designed to fit snugly, in order to compress and flatten.• Do not intentionally go down in size; you will not be able to put your binder on.

HOW TO MEASURE

Step 1: Prepare

  • Get a flexible measuring tape- if you don’t have one, CLICK HERE to download a printable ruler and measure w string

  • Do not wear a bra or any other compression products

Step 2: Take your measurements

TIP: Each chest measurement should be taken all the way around your torso. The measuring tape should not compress your chest tissue but should touch your body. If the measuring tape is not touching your body - it’s too loose.

(1) Underarm measurement: Take this measurement just above where your breast tissue begins. The measuring tape should lay just below your armpits and at the beginning of your breast tissue.

(2) The largest part of the chest: Take this measurement around the torso and chest where the most breast tissue is (usually around the nipples, but this will vary person to person).

(3) Underbust measurement: Take this measurement directly under your chest tissue, where you would measure your band size for a bra.

Shoulder Measurement

Shoulder width: Place the measuring tape at the point of one of your shoulders. Then stretch the tape to the point of your other shoulder. Don't wrap the measuring tape all the way around your shoulders for this measurement--just point-to-point.

Step 3: Find your Size

HOW TO SIZE

Compare your largest chest measurement and your shoulder measurement to the sizing chart. If your chest and shoulder measurements do not align with the same size, choose the larger size.

Now that you have found your size, it’s time to determine what style is going to fit best!

Compare your underarm measurement and underbust measurement to the sizing chart. These numbers will help you determine what style fits best. Ultimately, it’s up to you to pick a style that you’re comfortable with.

  • Tank: If your underbust measurement is 3-5 or more inches (7.5-13 cm) smaller than your largest chest measurement, we suggest ordering a tank binder. This style works well for people who are in between sizes.
  • Half: Regardless of your body shape, the half binder tends to work best for people who have a small amount of breast tissue. Additionally, if you live in a warm climate a half binder may be a comfortable style.
  • Racerback: If you’re looking for a binder that provides a wide range of motion, less visibility under clothing or thin straps - this is the binder for you!
