Really Wanted to Love This

I was looking for a comfortable compromise between a sports bra and a binder since I have sensory issues with scratchy clothes and/or clothes that are too tight on me. I thought this might be it, especially since this is a brand I've heard of and is a LGBT company. Sadly it did not work out for me.Comfort: 2/10The lining of this is very abrasive, even after washing it with a lot of fabric softener. It feels chaffy. The elastic band at the bottom both rides up, making it more bra like and less binder like, and is also a rough texture. Also, maybe I should have gone a size up, but this was very snug. It cuts into me and I ended up having to try to stretch it out a little. I ended up taking this off very quickly after trying to wear it a few different times because the texture is so unpleasant to me.Binding: 2/10Admittedly, it binds a little better than I honestly expected. With a loose shirt I look kind of flat chested. This could also be because I think it's too small for me though :(. I wouldn't wear it as a regular binder personally.Value: 1/10Expensive for what for me was the equivalent of wearing a course sports bra a size too small.Overall:This doesn't bind as well as my regular binder, but it's also less comfortable. The lining material is much rougher and the elastic band is very textured and rough. Would not recommend this at all if you have sensory issues.

Pros

Cons
