TomboyX Adjustable Compression Bra Wireless Medium Support Top Smooth Flatlock Seams Full Chest Coverage Athletic Bra

I'm so stoked over this bra! It's the kind of bra you rave about to anyone having trouble finding a COMPRESSION bra (NOT A BINDER). I'm not sure why some reviewers are upset about this bra not being a binder, as the item description clearly states that it provides "medium support, moderate compression with no underwire or padding". Nowhere does it claim to be a binder or use any misleading language on its site or anywhere else. I have never used a binder before, but this bra provides more support than any sports or minimizer bra I have tried.As a 38DD, I have tried several minimizers, compression, and other support bras, but they were all the classic bra style. The materials were usually rigid, scratchy, and misshapen. However, this product's material is incredibly soft and breathable, and the adjustable straps in the front are pure genius! They cause me no discomfort whatsoever, neither on the shoulders nor the tab that some reviewers have spoken of. It doesn't make me hot like others I've tried, and the banding below the breast area doesn't ride up. I did buy a L and XL because some say it stretches after a few months. I'll check back in and update whether that was my experience. I hope this helps some who might be on the fence. Remember, there are always returns!

My boobs aren't large enough for the Enell bra but I'm old and they are heavy now. This bra is a little difficult to get on but I have a system that works. If you get it partally down you can lift the straps fo you have a flat piece of fabric to work with. Yes, it flattens but I look 10 pounds thinner. I wish the pink weren't such a harsh, cheap pink (same qualities for the blue) because I will be ordering more of these The straps rarely slide on my narrow shoulders and it would be perfect for athletics if the straps were slightly closer in the back. Good buy and worth every penny.

I like everything about this bra. Finally at age 78, I've found a comfortable, flattering bra. I hesitated before purchasing, figuring the odds of the bra being an excellent fit and achieving its promise of compressing my "girls" were slim. But I was so sick of regular, underwire bras and I liked the name Tom Boy, so I went ahead and bought, figuring I could and probably would return it. Wrong! I'll definitely be buying more. My bra size is 34D. I purchased a Medium Tom Boy and am glad I spent a little more for the adjustable straps.

I bought this bra because I am unable to wear binders, and this is honestly a great alternative. I am not as flat as a binder would get me, but this bra is so comfortable and allows me to feel like my chest is smaller. It looks like I went from a C cup to an A or smaller. It’s very easy to get on and the adjustable straps really help make the fit perfect. It’s very soft material and it keeps me feeling very secure. I would definitely recommend this for people who want to minimize their chest but can’t wear binders for one reason or another.

Firstly I want to note that I did NOT have the expectation of this being a fantastic binder in terms of compression. I have several gc2b binders that are more effective in that regard. However, the necklines are high, which limits some of the tops I want to wear. So I ordered this one because of the straps.After reading some of the reviews from here and other sites, my expectations weren’t super high, but I was pleasantly surprised. It’s not perfect by any means. I am generally ~36C and I got a medium. I would say it’s somewhere between a sports bra and a binder. Maybe 6/10 compression for me. Probably more if I taped underneath as well, but I haven’t tried that yet. Comfort ~7/10 because obviously it’s less restricting than other binders so it’s less noticeable (but still noticeable) and the fabric is breathable. It does dig in a little in certain places, but so do most binders and in my case it’s not painful with this one, but that might not be the case for everyone.Pros:- Compression similar to sports bra but gives a more neutral chest shape than sports bras (in my case - not sure if true for everyone)- Adjustable & non/less visible straps- Breathable fabric- Decent qualityCons:- Less compression than typical binders (some may find it more like a glorified sports bra)- Expensive for what it is- Concerns about durabilityI just got it so I haven’t worn it much, but my biggest concern is that it will stretch out over time (as binders tend to do), which might render it completely ineffective since it’s already not extremely binding. Ideally I’d like to have a few of these to rotate, but I don’t feel they’re worth the money for that.Basically, don’t expect an amazing binder (unless maybe if your chest is small already). This is somewhere between a sports bra and a binder. It’s a bit too expensive in my opinion, but I like the smaller straps. For me it’s better than a sports bra, but others may be able to find a sports bra that binds the same/better for less money. As for durability, we’ll have to wait and see.
