Tomboyx
We started TomboyX in 2013 because we recognized a gap in the market for people like us. We asked ourselves, “How hard can it be to make good underwear?” And by that, we meant underwear that anybody could feel comfortable in, inclusive of all sizes and gender expressions.
Method of Compression
The binder is made of elastic fabric on the front and back and does not use a non-stretch panel to achieve compression. The strength of the elastic varies from high compression to low compression in all-elastic binders. All-Elastic Compression
Garment Styles
A tank that ends a few inches below the bottom of your chest tissue. People with larger chests may find that their tissue bulges out the bottom Half-Length Tank
A tank that can be tucked into the pants which can be helpful for people who want more body contouring or people who are experiencing their full-length binder rolling up. If keeping the binder down is still a challenge, shirt stays can be used for extra support. Tuckable Tank
Racerback tanks allow for the greatest motion of the scapula and are recommended whenever you are doing activities that demand significant shoulder movement. The straps of a racerback can exert more pressure onto the upper traps and neck muscles and can trigger headaches in some people. Racerback Tank
A tank binder with thinner straps similar to traditional bra straps which can be adjusted. This can be especially helpful for people who are experiencing headaches from binding or people who have long torsos and need a customizable fit. Adjustable Strap
These styles are able to be worn with lower cut shirts and open button downs without being visible. V-Neck/Low Neckline
Compression shirts and high-compression sports bras are lower-compression options which leave more room for chest tissue thus exerting less pressure on the sternum than other binder garments. Compression Shirt/Sports Bra
These are garments designed and styled as swimsuits and include chest compression. The level of compression in these garments varies from light to heavy. Swimsuit Design
