WHY WEAR A GAFF?
Our gender-affirming compression gaffs can alter the way you see your body and exist in the world!
Choosing to wear a gaff is a deeply personal decision based in the desire to present as your beautifully authentic self. For people assigned male at birth but identifying otherwise, a gaff can be a transformative garment that helps you achieve a flatter, more feminized appearance. (Check out our Gaffing 101 Blog!)
Wearing a gaff can be an excellent way to treat body dysmorphia and anxiety around your presentation. It offers a sense of empowerment and self-expression by helping to minimize the visibility of male genitalia and creating a smoother silhouette.
Wearing a gaff can help give you more confidence and a positive body image. It helps you wear what you want and feel how you want, aligning your external presentation with your true gender identity.

Our gaffs are comfortable enough to wear all day. Alternative gaffs often feature a non-stretch panel in the front, which can quickly become uncomfortable over time.

We offer gaffs in various styles to suit different body shapes, comfort, and sensory needs. Our various styles offer different levels of compression for safe gaffing during swimming, working out, or daily wear. Our perfect fit also helps reduce health issues.

This custom fit makes them even more comfortable so you can safely wear them all day. We want you to able to gaff whenever you want, without worrying. And custom sizing is FREE!
Here’s how to select the right gaff for you!
There are two different things to know about your body before making a choice:
How round is your bum? and What shape are your hips?
We know there are infinite body shapes, but to make it simpler, we’ve organized it with three general bum shapes, and three general hip shapes.
Remember, these are just suggestions- you are welcome to purchase any style you like!
Very round bum/ Rectangle hips
Best Fit: Boyshort, Cheeky boyshort, Thong, High waisted
Wouldn't Recommend: Cheeky
Very round bum/ inverted triangle hips
Slightly rounded bum/rectangle hips
Best Fit: boyshort, cheeky boyshort
Wouldn't Recommend: cheeky
Not rounded bum/inverted triangle hips
Best Fit: hipster, high-waisted
Wouldn't Recommend: boyshort
One special note: If you are someone with a longer torso, we would not recommend the hipster. It is designed with a low rise and so may end up being too short.
Other things to know
Full Coverage Gaffs
If you’re just starting your journey with gaffs or tucking, (or if you're worried about slippage) a full-coverage style is a great place to begin. The gusset (the piece between your legs) is designed to be wider and more accommodating, especially toward the back where tucking happens, making it super beginner-friendly and comfortable.
Gaffs with a full coverage style are the Hipster, Boyshort, and High Waist Hipster
Thong Gaff
Our Thong Gaff is one of our best options if you want to avoid panty lines. Plus, the V-shape of the thong can feel affirming for some by beautifully highlighting the curves of the hips.
This option also gives you the flexibility to pull the sides up for extra vertical compression, providing a secure and adjustable tuck. However there is less material at the back of the gusset (the piece between your legs), so do note that it will cover a bit less of you at the back if you're tucking.
High-Waist Shapewear Gaffs
Made with our stretch powermesh, our high waist gaffs double as shapewear, and can target specific areas like the hips or tummy or provide overall contouring.
It’s the perfect fit under dresses, skirts, or high-waisted pants, with a soft non-elastic waistband that sits naturally at your waist instead of your hips. (We offer high waist in Hipster, Cheeky and Thong cut)
