Introducing our NEW Essential Binder. Inspired by our beloved Original Classic Binder (discontinued), this binder is designed to help you feel at home in your body while giving you maximum shaping when you’re out and about. Made from the same single-layer 100% cotton as the Original Classic, this binder now offers an improved fit at the neckline, armholes, and underbust.
For best results and garment longevity, we recommend alternating between the Essential Binder and the Essential Comfort Binder. Use the Essential Binder for moments when you want a polished, streamlined shape, and switch to the Essential Comfort Binder for situations where moderate support and wearability are preferred.
General Sizing Recommendations
If you'd like to measure yourself: Kindly view our sizing guide and measuring instructions located on the right side of your screen, right below the section to select your size.. Alternatively enter your measurements here using our size recommender to help you select the appropriate size.
When in between sizes, choose the larger option: A slightly larger binder will still support you while allowing safe breathing and skin comfort.
Do not layer binders: Wearing two binders or combining a binder with a sports bra can place too much pressure on the chest and ribs.
Expect a secure fit: A binder should feel snug and supportive. It may feel restrictive at first, but it must not cause pain or stop you from breathing or moving comfortably.
Take your time putting it on: Place the binder over your head, guide your arms through, and pull down from the back. Adjust the chest tissue upward for even compression.
No bulky hardware for a reason: We avoid zippers and hook-and-loop fasteners as they can be uncomfortable and wear out quickly.
