I just got my Racerback binder yesterday!! My measurements lined up to being a small, but I noticed that the model had basically the same measurements as me but was wearing a medium. I am SO glad I sized up because it was a bit difficult to get on. Still adjusting to it, but it seems to fit well! Definitely worth the money, the package was super discrete. I ordered it on February 3rd, and got it on March 4th. There’s even some little card thing with some general info and tips about binder care :^)
my measurements are 45 /21 (inches) but i'm gonna order an XL2 the instant sizing provided on the website _suggests_ i should get a XL4, but its also saying that an XL3 and XL2 could potentially work so.. i'll update once i recieve it in the mail!
two weeks later! i probably would've gone one size up as it feels a little too snug on my shoulders, but otherwise it's pretty damn good, i feel great!
So when you're in between two sizes you should order the bigger one, however what if there's two sizes between the two sizes of both measurements? I feel like getting the bigger one (so 3 sizes apart) would be a lot ? I'm so confused UPDATE: I contacted the gc2b support and they helped me figure it out + they were super sweet about it!
Since people are built differently, they suggest taking 3 measurements and using the largest for sizing. Measure above the breast, in the middle, and under. Then use the largest of those measurements for the size chart for chest.
I have a 34C size chest, but after years of compressing my breasts with tight sports bras they’ve flattened and hang down a bit and thus I’m really worried that measuring my chest by wrapping the tape around my torso won’t really capture how big they actually are. When they’re not in a bra they look like a much smaller size (especially from the side), but wearing a regular non-padded thin-fabric bra shows how much mass they actually have. Does anyone have any experience with this or can offer any sizing tips?? Idk what to do :(
hey !! I've researched a bit into this and I've heard that folks that have more br34st tissue, or breast tissue that hangs downwards may prefer full tanks instead of half tanks because it compresses it downwards across the front of the whole tank (from what I've heard). when measuring, as the video said, try not to wear too much (and from other videos they've said not to wear bras/binders either). You take three measurements, underarm, around the chest, and under the chest. I'm not an expert, but maybe try taking it from a resting position without moving any tissue? In the binders, you adjust them face on so you could support the tissue as if it is already in a binder while measuring (if you know what I mean). I really hope you find out how to properly size it soon !! try and find more sizing guides for GC2B binders done by different people, I'm sure you'll find some tips. Good luck : )
aparently i'm still an XL. really hope that the compression actually works this time. most my binders has compressed my ribs more than my chest so I'm hoping this time I'll get a binder that actually works to my liking. been using a balaclava lately cause haveing shrunken my binder don't fit anymore.
Wait, this is kind of confusing for me. My shoulder measurement is 19 inches, which fits under a Large. But my chest measurement is 28 inches, which fits under an XS, should I really go for a large?? I doesn't seem quite right. If anyone might know an answer please do let me know! TQP is restocking very soon and I don't want to miss out on my only chance to get a binder.
Hi I’m a girl who has a bigger chest and isn’t comfortable with it, can I wear a binder even if I’m not transgender or non binary?? I just want to know because I haven’t seen anyone else talk about it anywhere and I want to know if it’s ok if I buy a binder
Ofcourse! Binders are for anyone who does not feel comfortable with their chest, if that is bc of dysphoria or not. If you're trans or not doesnt matter. Binders are there to make people more comfortable in their own body :)
Ofc! Though binders are made in mind for trans and non binary people that doesn’t mean they’re limited to those communities! Binders are for anyone who doesn’t feel comfortable w/ their chest :)
@@djlolya I think choosing a medium would be best for you since you're not that far off from it!! It's not the best if you size up on a binder "just in case" like most people (including me lolol) whenever they're not certain if a clothing item is too small for them
bruh my chest is in S but shoulders are in L so I can choose between taking S and being flat but also being unable to put the binder on me, and between taking M or L and not being flat :|||||
Hi, im abit nervous about getting the right size and I'm wondering if you could help, im a 24 chest and 18 in shoulder, thats all in inch, but I don't know what size would be best.. im think of getting the half binder, but I have no clue about sizing, it would be greatly appreciated if someone could help, thank you for your time! ^^
Write to their mail, they answer pretty quickly🥰 I also needed help, they even offered me free return and shipping if I bought the one they recomended within a month if it didn't fit. Hope you'll find one that fits! ❤️
This is probably so late that it’s no longer really relevant for you but: in their terms of service under shipping and delivery it states “We ship only in US mail printed priority envelopes; they are discreet and generic so no one will know what is enclosed.” Hope this was helpful:))💜💜
I’ve been wanting to get a binder for a while, and have only recently been able to measure myself. I’m still a little confused about the measuring after watching the video though! My shoulders measure at 18 in. (A Large on the chart), and my biggest chest measurement measures at 46 (a 4 XL). In the video it says to go with the biggest size, but how would that work with my shoulder measurements? I don’t want it to be super loose on the shoulders/upper chest, but I also don’t want to get a size that is too small or hurts my chest/ribs.
I think you could go with their recommendation of choosing the larger size, and if it doesn't fit, exchange it! Or, if you personally know someone who has experience in binding and knows what you look like, ask them what they think and what they would recommend for you.
Hello! I’m attempting to purchase my first binder. My shoulders are 17 and my bigger part is 44.5.. which is a large and a 4xl.. what size do I go to?!
Hi, uhm i seem to be stuck between sizes, i have a rather small chest but rather broad shoulders so my chest fits in xs but shoulders in small or medium, and im planning to order a binder today, any tips would be appreciated, im just scared since the width of my shoulders are so much longer and if i went up a size that it wont bind properly, thank you for reading this and any tips or advise is highly appreciated, thank you and have a nice day:)
@@harryslover7 I ordered a medium, Wich was between my breast size and my shoulder width. So, small for my shoulders, and big for my breast. It hasn't come in yet, but I might have to send it back if it's too small.
you can also print out a measuring tape design and then cut the sheet of paper to fit the shape of one, just make sure that the print stays accurate in its measurements
Your models don't even have the correct sizes on in the pics on your site, at least according to your own sizing chart. How are we supposed to get an idea of how this product will work for us if you can't even give us accurate representation of your products performance in your marketing materials?
@taylyn their sizing chart is based off of measurements and measurements alone. there is no accounting for different body shapes (this per the customer service rep I contacted when trying to figure out my own sizing)
This was beyond helpful I'm having such a hard time finding a binder bc my chest is larger
so glad it was helpful for you! our dedicated Customer Care team is also on standby if you have any questions regarding sizing 💜
Cries i was too impulsive and ordered the wrong size 😭 Im going back in more prepared this time wish me luck lad and lasses
The amount of love i have for them just for posting this

If you're inbetween sizes, size up. It's better that way so you don't hurt your ribcage.

Thanks for teaching me how to measure! ^^
Ok wait, am I supposed to measure my chest size *on* my hoobs or *under* my boobs cuz I got 68 for chest size and 51 for shoulder 😅
I'm also not sure- wish they would actually respond to the comments
@@dubstepwolf24 I figured it out
The measuring tape goes on your boobs, on your nips

the packaging looks just like a regular package you should be fine
You never told us how to measure with a shoe string
You use the string to take the length, then hold that against a flat ruler to actually find the measurement.
you could look up an online ruler if u dont have one
What if my shoulder measurement is bigger than my chest?
I’m a 36-38-D what size should I get? Trying to bind for compressed looj
if my chest size is xs but my shoulder width is m, what binder should I get? I'm struggling :(
The Website says always the bigger one
@@Username-xi5bs but wouldn't it be a size too big for my chest? what if the binder doesn't compress them well?

Go up so go medium
So my size is 33 .5 inches and and 16.5 so I should just get a medium right
thank you so so much
