Description
I made a very ghetto chest binder this weekend. It took about 10 minutes. So hopefully you will enjoy it~This was my first tutorial, so hopefully I can give back to the community that has helped me so much~
Author's notes
I got my elastic at the Downtown Los Angeles Fashion District. Other than that, I'm not really sure where to get it...I am a cup size C. I have no idea how this will work for others.If at any point you feel faint, or your chest is numb to the touch, immediately take off the binder.have fun and be creative with it

thank you so much for this tutorial!
But would my mother get suspicious if I asked her to sew the hook and eye track??

You could just say it is for a waist belt or waistband for a skirt or something. For a while, plain elastic waist belts were in vouge.

This is like, one step up from using ACE bandages. Buy a binder or wear a sports bra. Please.

it is the same as wearing a binder, just different material, this is definitely much safer than ace bandages

do you think this will work with a zip instead of hook and eye?

Hey, I'm not the OP but here are my thoughts:
Seeing as the resulting garment is supposed to be very compressing, I think it would be very hard to zip unless somebody else is going to be holding it shut for you while you zip it or vice versa. I think it would work if you have small breasts though.
I know it's been over a year, so did you actually try making this? If so, how did it go?

this looks very promising! but... will it work with (in my country, The netherlands) 80 E? i read that people still have some bumbs.. so i was wondering ^^"
i will definitely try it out though!

okay so I have 34 DDD breasts and actual binders are expensive and a little intimidating so i ended up using this to test and they arent flat but given the right shirt i can pass for a guy. I thank you SOOOO much for this!!!

This is like the most amazing thing ever. Thank you over 9000 times!!!!

Um how hot does it generally get under the binder. Is it highly uncomfortable, and how long would it maybe take to get used to the compression? Would it be even possible to exorcise in one?

this looks very promising. now my bust size is like around a C and D. will I still have a slight bumb having a bigger bust? also from your own opinion does it bother you at all while wearing it? I mean obviously its going to be a bit odd the first time you wear it but hey its cosplay. thank you for this tutorial by the way~ ^^

yeah you'll have a little bump but it will be mostly smooth and it isnt too uncomfortable because it will stretch as you breathe.

i did this but i ahd to go 2/3rd the under the bust. being DDD i was able to get to B cup

Is elastic really safe? I mean, ace bandages restrict the breathing because they're elastic, so... does your binder keep you from breathing deeply? Or is it okay? I want to make one and I don't know what material to use.
Otherwise, thanks! Great tutorial!

Elastic stretches more than ace bandages and it only requires one layer as opposed to ace bandages so you should be fine.

Just in case anyone stumbles past this comment thread again despite its age, ACE bandages are not dangerous because they are elastic. ACE bandages are dangerous because they tighten each time they stretch, and therefore are not breathable. (Each time your chest expands and contracts, the binding will constrict tighter and tighter.)

I just want to thank you for that bit of insight. So thank you, kind citizen.

what width do i make it around my body
is there a proper length or do i just wing it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
usually make it 80% of your under bust measurement
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
For having a C cup it seems to work like a charm, I'll give it a try!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
what type is the fabric? And the width.. is it still the measurement of the bust line? or the measurement of the below bust line?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
its very wide elastic like you might find in the cuffs of your sweatpants. the wider the better.
Used your underbust line.

I think I'll try this. I can't seem to wear my tri-top without problems anymore, so I'm trying to find alternatives.
[I'm a 36B, if you have any suggestions. I'm severely asthmatic, so you can see how binding can be problematic.

binders are generally used to reduce bust size and appearance so that a female-bodied person can pass as/appear to be male-bodied, often for cosplay/costume purposes or because they identify as male/wish to pass as male

Uh, not sure about this type of binder, but as a trans man, I can tell you that binding generally does hurt a little after a few hours.

I'm not sure if anyone asked this yet but would it work with like a sports bra underneath it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
probably, unless it's padded. if it is padded then it might make it a bit more uncomfortable and give less breathing room but a non-padded sports bra is probs thin enough to put under. it's always advised to wear a thin tank or sport/training bra underneath because a binder can slip down or get hot and sweaty without one.
