Need a binder with high compression, but having trouble getting a binder over your head? No worries, we’ve got you covered. This Side-Open Mesh Half Binder is one of our highest compression binders, with the added bonus of a side hook-and-eye closure. This is the best compressing binder for trans or folks with mobility issues, or for breast binding for large chests.

This binder is safe for long term daily wear, without sacrificing compression. Our amazing powermesh offers full range of motion without restricting breathing, while keeping you cool and giving you the flattened chest silhouette you desire! The mesh is semi-sheer and is meant as an undergarment. As with all our binders, the custom sizing means no pinching or discomfort while you bind.

HOW TO MEASURE

Chest/Bust: Measure around the fullest part of the chest, with arms relaxed down at sides and without a bra. Keep the measuring tape parallel to the floor. Keep the tape comfortably snug but not tight, which will include measuring the space between the chest tissue. Do not squeeze the chest tissue flat.

Ribs/Underbust: Around your ribcage where a bra band sits. Measure on the exhale.  Make sure to measure under the breast tissue

Waist: Measure around natural waistline, which appears as a crease when bending to one side.

High Hip: Measure just over the hip bones, where the waistband of a low rise bottom would sit

Low Hip: Lift one leg to see the bend where the hip and leg meet. The low hip measurement is taken by measuring around the bum at this level. Keep the measuring tape parallel to the floor.

WHAT TO MEASURE

Feels like a second skin. I cried when I put it on. Fits so perfectly and although there's a bit of pinching under the arm where is does up, the discomfort is minimal. Honestly, I can't even compare it to other binders I've had since those were SO uncomfortable and downright painful. I was always so hyper aware of wearing them. This one feels made for me, like an extension of my body. I frequently forget I'm wearing it, which is in my opinion the greatest accomplishment of Origami! Thank you!

Love it!

I'm really pleased with the purchase of this binder. The free custom sizing is awesome and it fits greats. Feels really high quality and well made. I like the side open because it has 3 different hook placements so you can make it tighter as it streches over time. It definetely does take some effort to hook it shut esp. if you're bigger chested. But, it has really great compression. I was skeptical about getting a binder because I didn't think it would be any different than a sports bra but it really does make a huge difference. It's really nice to not feel my chest move at all. It takes my chest from 36" to 32". If you're considering buying this product I would say go for it!

amazing <3

First time was a little hard to put on, but by the third, it was just like putting on any other kind of clothing that isn't just "pull over body".
It's super comfortable (in a tight way), fits amazingly well, holds everything in place, and is super affirming on top because the binding is really great, even for big breasts. The fabric is light and dries quickly, and also breathes, which is so awesome. I love my binder, and recommend it all the time.
It's the first binder that actually fits my body, feels good to wear, and also does its job. The craftsmanship is outstanding, too. And the people here are amazing.

Thank you for your work and everything you do, I couldn't be happier! <3

Great quality

This binder is great quality and fits well (I got custom sizing). My experience with the customer service was really great as well. They were even able to raise the neckline for me so less cleavage would show. I would highly recommend this brand to others.

The only thing to note is that if you have large breasts, keep in mind that a binder can only do so much. In bras I'm a size 34J or 34K, which means my breasts are far too large to ever look flat (sadly). So this binder ended up giving me a uniboob like a sports bra (maybe I'm not wearing it correctly?). This was unfortunately more dysphoric for me than wearing my normal bra (this might not be the same experience for you, depending on your identity and preferences). I've never worn a binder before so I don't know if this is normal. But I don't think you can expect to look completely flat if you have a large chest unfortunately

Best Christmas present ever

Kid #2 had tried a bunch of different binders and nothing was quite right. We ordered them a custom size, and it has been night and day since they opened it Christmas Day. The comfort they have personally with the fit has translated into happier teen. They feel like they look flat chested, their confidence level has sky rocketed, and they aren't hiding in massive oversized hoodies, but wearing tailored clothes that fit that flatter chest. They have been very happy with how well it washes, the fabric's feel and how it doesn't get out of place when they move around a lot. They are saving up for another one instead of buying game merch, that's how much they like it.
