What is Transguy Supply?
Transguy Supply is a trans-owned shop offering gear for trans men, trans masculine, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and gender expansive people, including binders, packers, STPs, packing underwear, harnesses, and more.
I'm new here. Where should I start?
Most people start with the gear that solves their biggest everyday need first: a binder, a packer, or packing underwear.
Do I have to be trans to use these products?
No. Anyone can use compression garments, prosthetics, specialty underwear, or harnesses.
How do I choose the right binder size?
Use the size chart on the product page and measure carefully before ordering. Do not size down for more compression. You can shop our binder collection here.
How long can I wear a binder?
Many people follow the general guideline of up to about 8 hours a day. If you feel pain, dizziness, numbness, or shortness of breath, take it off and give your body a break.
Can I sleep in a binder?
No. We do not recommend sleeping in a binder.
Can I work out in a binder?
For lighter activity, some people do. For more intense exercise, many people prefer a less restrictive compression option or a roomier fit.
What is a packer?
A packer is a prosthetic worn to create a natural-looking bulge in your underwear or pants.
What size packer should I start with?
Most first-time customers prefer a smaller everyday packer for a more natural look and easier adjustment. Browse our packers here.
How do I keep a packer in place?
Most people use packing underwear, a pouch, or a harness to keep it secure and sitting naturally.
What is an STP?
An STP is a stand-to-pee device designed to help someone pee while standing. You can browse our STP options here.
Are STPs hard to use?
They can take practice. Many people test them at home first, often in the shower, before trying them in public.
Should I start with a regular packer or an STP?
If your main goal is everyday comfort, start with a basic packer. If standing to pee matters most, start with an STP and give yourself time to practice.
What is packing underwear?
Packing underwear is underwear designed with a pouch or internal support to hold a packer or STP in place.
What's the difference between packing underwear and a harness?
Packing underwear feels more like everyday underwear. A harness is usually more adjustable and can offer a tighter, more secure hold.
Which is better for everyday wear?
Most people prefer packing underwear for daily wear and a harness for extra support or a more locked-in fit.
How often should I wash my binder?
Regular washing helps with comfort, hygiene, and fabric life. Many people wash binders at least weekly or more often if they sweat a lot.
Can I put my binder in the dryer?
Follow the care instructions on the product page or garment tag. In general, air drying is often the safer option for compression fabrics.
How do I clean a packer or STP?
Follow the care instructions for that specific product and material. In general, keep prosthetics clean and fully dry before storing them.
Do you ship discreetly?
Yes. All orders ship in plain packaging with no product names, brand logos, or any reference to Transguy Supply on the outside. The sender name shows only as "shipping dept." — nothing else about the company appears on the package. We ship thousands of discreet packages every year and take your privacy seriously.
What will the charge look like on my bank statement?
Your charge will appear as "TG SUPPLY" — no reference to Transguy Supply or the nature of your purchase.
What does shipping cost?
Domestic shipping runs $10–$12 based on weight and location. International shipping is $15–$30 depending on the destination. For full shipping details and timelines, see our Shipping Policy.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are processed within 1–2 business days (Monday–Friday). Orders placed on Friday begin processing Monday and most likely ship Tuesday. During holidays, processing may take slightly longer. Most apparel is made to order and takes 3–5 business days to process before shipping. After processing, domestic delivery typically takes 2–5 business days. International orders take an estimated 7–21 business days depending on destination and customs.
Can I change my shipping address after I place an order?
You have about a 10-minute window after placing your order to request an address change — after that, changes are rarely possible due to fast warehouse processing. If you catch a mistake right away, email hello@transguysupply.com with your order number immediately. For full details, see our Shipping Policy.
My tracking hasn't updated. What should I do?
Tracking can take up to 24 hours to appear after your shipping confirmation, and missed scans during transit are common. Allow up to 10 days of stalled tracking before reaching out. You can always contact the carrier directly with your tracking number for the most current info. For more details, see our Shipping Policy.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship to 100+ countries. A few things to know: customs fees, import taxes, and local duties are your responsibility; all international orders are final sale with no returns or exchanges; and customs forms are legally required to list contents and retail value. If you have privacy concerns about international customs declarations, review your country's requirements before ordering. For the full country list, see our Shipping Policy.
What if the name on my package doesn't match my ID?
Some carriers require the name on the package to match a government-issued ID before they'll release it — especially for pickups or international deliveries. If this is a concern, use a name you can verify with ID or ship to someone who can receive the package on your behalf.
What is Route Package Protection?
Route is an optional add-on at checkout that covers lost, stolen, and damaged packages. If something goes wrong with your delivery, you can file a claim directly at claims.route.com within 5–15 days of the marked delivery date. We strongly recommend keeping Route on your order — without it, we're unable to issue refunds or replacements for carrier errors, as we're a small independent business.
What is your return policy?
All sales of STPs, packers, harnesses, pleasure toys, swimwear, and underwear are final due to hygiene and legal restrictions. For all other items, returns receive in-store credit only. All international orders are also final sale. Please review size charts carefully before ordering, as sizes vary between brands. For the full policy, see our Returns & Refund Policy.
