Safety Notice
Wearing a binder that is too tight for you, which causes any pain at all, could harm you. Please make sure your binder fits properly! For safety reasons, although we recommend chest measurement please also pay attention to your rib measurement, for example, if your chest measurement is a smaller size than your ribs, the larger size may be best for you to give your ribs more room to expand. See my ‘Binding Safely’ page.
