What are Non-Binary Binders?

Non-binary binders are specialized garments designed to compress the chest to create a flatter appearance for individuals who do not identify exclusively as male or female, as well as for people of any gender identity who prefer a flatter chest. These binders can be worn by people of any gender identity who desire a flatter chest, regardless of their gender expression or presentation.

Types of Binders:

Chest Binders: Chest binders are the most common type of binder and are typically made of stretchy and breathable materials that apply compression to the chest area to create a flatter appearance. They come in various styles, including full-length binders, bandeau binders, and strapless binders, providing options for different body types and clothing preferences.

Band Binders: Band binders have no shoulder straps and wrap around the chest like a band. They provide compression around the chest area without the use of shoulder straps, making them a popular choice for individuals who prefer a strapless option or have specific clothing needs.

Zipper Binders with Shoulder Straps: Band binders have no shoulder straps and wrap around the chest like a band. They provide compression around the chest area without the use of shoulder straps, making them a popular choice for individuals who prefer a strapless option or have specific clothing needs.

Compression Tops: Compression tops are another option for individuals seeking mild chest compression, particularly for those with a smaller chest. These tops are made of stretchy materials that provide light compression to the chest area, resulting in a flatter appearance.

Benefits of Non Binary Binders:

• Gender Expression: Non-binary binders can help individuals feel more comfortable with the appearance of their chest by creating a flatter silhouette that aligns with their personal style, identity or presentation.

Considerations for Different Gender Identities:
