📏 How to Measure for Your TGS Short Tank Binder

Step 1: Stand naturally with arms relaxed.
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, but not tight — it should rest gently against your skin.
Step 4: Ask a friend to help for best accuracy.

👉 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 be able to take deep breaths easily.

• When in doubt, size up — comfort always comes first.

• Overly tight binders can cause discomfort, restrict movement, and may lead to long-term issues.

If you’re between sizes, it’s best to size up. By doing so, you’ll avoid excessive compression and maintain comfort all day.

🧺 Care Instructions

Taking care of your binder keeps it soft, clean, and long-lasting. Above all, binder care is self-care — protect both your gear and your body.

🫧 Washing Your Short Tank Binder

• First, hand wash or use a gentle cold cycle to preserve elasticity.

• Next, use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or softeners.

• Then, rinse thoroughly to remove residue.

• Finally, skip the iron — heat damages compression fibers.

🌬️ Drying Your Short Tank Binder

• Ideally, lay flat to dry in a shaded area.

• Alternatively, tumble dry on low if needed.

• Additionally, avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading and stretching.

• In short, gentle drying extends the life of your binder and keeps it fitting perfectly.

💡 Pro Tip

If you wear your binder often, rotate between two or more. In doing so, you’ll extend their lifespan and, at the same time, give your body needed rest.

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 causes pain or limits breathing, remove it right away. Over time, consistent comfort supports your health and confidence.

Whenever possible, take short breaks during long wear or in warmer conditions.
Finally, always listen to your body — it knows what feels right.
