XUJIFTM Transgender Elastic Breathable Half Chest Binder

Amazing Product, Amazing People!
As you can see in the first picture, the binder I received was incorrectly made with the hooks facing the wrong direction. It's still usable it just sticks out on the side a little weird so I wanted to keep the binder and get a correct one. I contacted the seller asking if I could keep the incorrect binder and get a discount on another one and they said I could keep it and they'd send a replacement for free. While I was at it I noticed the small size was a little tight for my liking on the largest set of hooks so I asked for a gray size medium. The second picture shows them both so you can see the size difference. The gray one is perfect and I wear it on the 3rd smallest set of hooks for a some binding but not too tight. I can go tighter or looser as needed. For reference I'm ~100 lbs and 5'1" and my chest size is 34". My cup size is somewhere in the B/C range. This meant I was between small and medium and based on reviews I got small, but for me I needed a medium. I can wear the small but the medium is more versatile for me.Now let's talk comfort and binding ability. This does not bind as much as my GC2B, and you can't expect that. However, I prefer binders with hooks so if I need a break during the day it's so much easier to unclip for a few minutes in the bathroom then reclip than totally undress to pull it off over my head. I have another binder from somewhere on Amazon that's a long piece of elastic with three rows of hooks. It's pretty good, but the elastic likes to roll up at the bottom a bit which is a little weird to wear. I'd say this one is better. The mesh back is nice and feels really cool and interesting and it's just so comfortable. With tight things like this and even stuff like socks you get those lines in your skin from wearing them for a while. With this binder there are almost no lines on me when I take it off even after 6+ hours. I've only seen a tiny line under each armpit and a little mark on the side with the clips. To me this seems like it's digging into my skin less which seems like a good thing. Again, you won't get as much bind as a GC2B, but this does better than a sports bra. The one "weird" thing is that because I have it on a fairly tight set of hooks the mesh that covers the front bunches up a little on the left shoulder strap. This is only a problem if you wear a tight shirt or you're shirtless I suppose. It looks a little weird but you can't see it under normal clothes. This is just what will happen with multiple rows of hooks I think, so I'm not sure there's a solution, and again it's hardly a problem. With the mesh material I was afraid it was going to rip, but I've worn the gray one for around 24 hours total (over a period of like 3 weeks) and it looks like it's still fine. I wash it with my clothes on normal settings but I hang dry it. This binder is amazing, at least for someone my size, and I'd highly recommend it.

It works, it's great, it's comfy.
This binder is great. Probably most comfortable binder I've ever used and better than any sports bra. I am 5'7", ~125lbs, 34B and I chose size Medium. It is a bit longer than other half binders I have worn before IN A GOOD WAY!! It properly reaches the bottom of my ribcage, so there is more room to evenly compress without too much pressure in one spot. The side clasps are great for getting it on and off by yourself. There are ways to make it tighter or looser with the clasps depending on your body's needs. It is nice to have control over how much compression the binder provides (i keep mine on the 3rd from tightest, and I still get a nice, flat, chest). Arm holes are roomy and prevent chafing..Also that mesh on the back?? Super breathable, huge difference from other binders. Hope this helps someone! Good luck everyone, you are beautiful and valid.

Honestly this is by far the best binder i’ve bought, doesn’t really feel like I have one on. You could workout in it if you wanted. I can breath easily too and doesn’t cause rib pain after using for half a day.

The best binder I've ever worn.
So first up, I am kind of between medium and large, so I went a size up and got a large because, y'know, asian sizes, you always go a size up. I am now confident I could have managed a medium, because I can comfortably wear this at its very tightest setting, but I'm very happy because:This is the MOST comfortable yet MOST effective binder I have worn in my entire life. And I've tried Underworks, Gc2b, and one or two others. This doesn't result in any weird shelfing, it doesn't hurt my shoulders or armpits or create bulges at the armpits, it doesn't bite into the skin anywhere, and I've accidentally fallen asleep in it because it's legitimately more comfortable than a sports bra. Yet it completely eliminates the appearance of boobs (well, mine, I'm a large B cup, maybe a small C.)I don't need help getting it on and off because of the side-closures, there's no rib pain, no back pain, and it doesn't make my back sweaty. Every con I assumed was "just part of wearing a binder", this doesn't have. Next binder I get will be another one of these. I cannot recommend enough.

New design is no longer safe
I've ordered this binder multiple times and this time they suddenly changed the design to one that is no longer safe. There's no elastic, it's just fabric and clasps. I hope I was sent a defective binder because I'm disappointed if this is what they changed their design to without saying anything.I'll be asking for a refund and finding someone else in the meantime. Yet another company that's turned their backs on the LGBT for profit

Great product, but just not for large chests
I am 5'4" and 165 lbs with an average to athletic build (broad shoulders). My chest is approximately a 38DD. I ordered the XL in this binder because that is typically where I fall when it comes to my chest. I usually wear a M/L shirt in men's for more reference, and I am on a quest for my chest. I am searching for another chest binder that will do the trick since I am FTN.When it comes to this binder, I wanted to love it because the material is so soft and breathable (a rare find in many other binders), but my chest is just too wide set and heavy. If I lift my arms in this binder, my chesticles just fall right out the bottom of the binder, and I foresee myself constantly adjusting this thing. So I returned it, and my search continues.BUT - this binder would probably work splendidly for a smaller chested person. It's not a bad product at all, and I only gave it a 3/5 stars because it didn't work for me. However, if I had a smaller chest, this probably would've been a winner.Good luck on your own search!
