📏 How to Measure for your TGS Short Racerback Binder
Step 1: Stand naturally with arms relaxed at your sides.
Step 2: Wrap a soft measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest (over the bust).
Step 3: Keep the tape level and snug — not tight — and resting gently on your skin.
Step 4: Ask a friend to help for best accuracy and comfort.
👉 Important: Pulling the tape too tight will result in buying a binder that’s too small, and as a result, it can cause discomfort or restrict breathing.
Therefore, if you’re between sizes, always size up. In doing so, you’ll ensure your binder feels supportive while still allowing you to breathe and move comfortably.

🌈 Fit Tips
- Your binder should feel snug but never painful.
- You should always be able to take deep, easy breaths.
- When in doubt, size up — comfort and safety come first.
- Overly tight binders can cause pain, restrict movement, and may lead to long-term health issues.
If you’re between sizes, it’s best to size up. By doing so, you’ll prevent excessive compression that can cause discomfort or restrict breathing.
🧺 Care Instructions
Proper care keeps your binder soft, clean, and long-lasting. Above all, binder care is part of caring for your body. Follow these simple steps to keep it in top shape.
🫧 Washing Your Short Racerback Binder
- First, hand wash or use a cold gentle cycle to protect fibers.
- Next, use mild detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softeners.
- Then, rinse thoroughly to remove residue.
- Finally, skip the iron — heat can weaken the compression fabric.
🌬️ Drying Your Short Racerback Binder
- Ideally, lay flat to dry in a shaded, cool spot.
- Alternatively, tumble dry on low heat if necessary.
- Additionally, avoid drying in direct sunlight to prevent fading and fabric breakdown.
- In short, gentle drying extends your binder’s lifespan and ensures a comfortable fit.
💡 Pro Tip
If you wear your binder often, rotate between two or more binders. In doing so, you’ll extend their lifespan and, at the same time, give your body the rest it needs to recover comfortably.
Remember, rest days are part of self-care — your body deserves them.
🧘 Body Care & Rest
Binding should always feel affirming, not restrictive. Therefore, if your binder feels painful or limits breathing, take it off immediately. Over time, consistent comfort ensures longer-lasting results — both for your binder and your well-being.
Whenever possible, take short breaks during long wear or in warm weather.
Finally, listen to your body — it knows what feels right.
