Founded in 2015, gc2b is a trans-owned company based in Maryland. Our founder, CEO, and designer—a Black and Latinx trans man—saw that the only binding options available were uncomfortable compression shirts made for cis men.

Using his background in Industrial Design and expertise in textiles, he set out to create accessible, comfortable, and safer binding options designed by trans people, for trans people. The result was the first binder designed and patented specifically for gender-affirming chest binding.

Over the past 10 years, we’ve grown from a groundbreaking idea into a global brand rooted in community, care, and innovation. We've collaborated with inspiring partners, expanded our product offerings, and continued to center trans joy, safety, and visibility in everything we do.

As we celebrate a decade of affirming trans identities through design, we’re proud of what we’ve built—and even more excited for what’s ahead.

We're just getting started.
