trans friends— this has been circulating a lot on the internet already but PLEASE stop ordering from gc2b. their quality has massively declined, they send the wrong size binders correctly marked, the stitching is extremely poor and rips often times when first putting it on. do not waste your money on them!

if anyone wants to know why im fundraising for new binders its because due to the quality decrease in gc2b, im currently relying on one binder ive had since 2018. three of my other BRAND new gc2b binders have already ripped and two others were marked size large but were a size medium or below. on top of that, they hurt my back an ungodly fucking amount, so please be careful with them, i know how hard this shit is for anyone else who is poor and/or financially constrained, and i really empathize, please bind safely and be careful!

Gc2b is also unsafe due to the way the binders don't compress evenly. They will cause rib warping and permanent damage. Always go for even compression and it should never cut into your ribs while wearing it.

If anyone needs a replacement, I got mine from spectrum outfitters, I don't think there's anything wrong with those

oh reblogging again to climb onto my soapbox and yell:
do NOT use amazon as your alternative!!!!!!
This isn't me being "fuck amazon" (though. fuck amazon), this is me saying I've been told by several sources that amazon binders are incredibly low-quality and incredibly unsafe.
It sucks that GC2B is bad now, but do not look to amazon as your new source. I know it's usually cheaper, but please. Don't hurt yourself.
(This goes double for amazon binders labeled as "for lesbians", "for butches", "for women", and "for cosplay", but like. I cannot stress enough that I have never heard a single person call any amazon binder "safe".)

Nobody is providing alt links on this post directly so here, I will. Buy your new binders from UNDERWORKS: https://www.underworks.com/
Personally been using their binders since 2010. That long. I’ve only ever had one fall apart on me and it took 5 years of near constant wear and wash to do so, the other 2 I got in 2013 are still strong and fine, and I recently bought a new one that’s even higher quality than the old ones. Plus size, tall, and large chest friendly. I’m 6ft, 2xl, F cup. Their binders take me down to roughly a rounded b cup. They also have long binders that go over the waist/hips/butt to gently compress them if it causes you some dysphoria. Even post surgical vests!
No single item from Underworks in the binder category is over $45, with a 3 pack of binders being less than $100. Please don’t buy from random retailers on amazon or other shady websites when Underworks has been a well known, award winning binder brand for 20 years, and their binders are literally cheaper than gc2b.
