OK

Good, however the stitching is a bit warped so there are raw edges and the rough plastic right on ur skin. Doesn't breath well and is very uncomfortable but thats pretty par for the course. Also doesn't really compress well unless you wear a t shirt on top

great binder the leighth is a bit off though

I'm rather short torosoed but the binder is around weights hit to me but it tends to ride up a bunch at my under bust which is uncomfortable but other than that over all great binder!

Awesome honestly

5/5
Wanted to give it sometime so I could get use to wearing the binders as it's me first set of binders ever.
Very comfortable, sometimes I notice the seams and can feel them but it barely bothers me, never irritates my skin and as always unfortunately when you do have something close to a crop top and have a belly the binder and etc. will ride up but with the binder it's mostly unnoticeable and still does it's job perfectly. [Only rides up when changing from sitting and laying positions.]
The comfortability for all of the above is a massive bonus for me because I barely notice it happening and it still binds my chest.
My only issues are my personal issues and I have to be very selective on when I wear the binders for my own safety. <3

My cat can't hurt me when he steps on my chest any more!

Very nice texture and very comfortable. Easy to put on. Not great for hot weather though. My cat is cranky because prime biscuit making real estate is no longer available.

Gone up significantly in price and don't bind as well as they used to. Disappointed.

Pretty great

This is my first binder and it’s pretty great it’s comfortable breathable and not too much of a fight to put on, the only thing I will say is that the straps are quite long so I find it sits a little lower than I expected also it doesn’t bind as much as I thought but then again I was in the middle of small and medium so maybe I should have gone with the small

Perfect

I have been looking for an effective binder for so long, I was wear 2 at a time before. This one works so well and is a comfortable as a binder can be.

Solid intro!

Really solid as an intro to binding. I found the sensation of wearing it quite easy to get used to. I like the way it slims down my chest. If I wear a slim fit t shirt it looks like I have a strong chest, and if I wear something less fitted it looks like there’s nothing there at all. Very pleased with this!

awesome

this is the best binder i've tried and fit my petite frame much better than other brands where the straps are often too long. it arrived real fast too. thanks heaps.

Awesome

16M first binder. I'm an XS and it fits great for me. Definitely would go small if it was a full body, but I feel confident in the size I chose. Shipping was great as always, got express because school was coming up and it was delivered well within a week. Been wearing almost daily and had no problems. Just remember to wash your damn binder, yo

Epic everyday wear!

Love this binder, so comfy and a great everyday wear. I lost mine and missed it so much that I’ve ordered another!

Perfect fit

This is my first binder and I couldn't be happier with the fit. I'm a 12DD and purchased a small size. It is of course a tight fit to get on (as I imagine all binders are) but once on, it's so comfortable. No issues with it rolling up. T-shirts finally fit the way I want.

Works very well

Rougher fabric than other binders, but mesh keeps me cooler in summer than anything else I’ve found. Overall very good.

My young person is enjoying their purchase and feeling more like their authentic self cx

Good cheap alternate to the cotton lined version!

Pretty disappointed

I’m very happy with the compression from this binder, and it’s comfortable (only) around the chest but I’m pretty disappointed with the quality of construction and the rolling at the bottom of the binder.

The fabric of the lining does not match properly with the size of outer fabric, causing it to sit poorly and always pull up at the bottom and roll over at the top. As you can expect, once it starts rolling the whole bottom rolls up. This can also make the top seam rub into the skin at the collar.

The seam design under the armpit results in a bulky point right at the bottom where the most skin is pushed out. This is painful after wearing for a while if not taped down.

Sorry to hear you're disappointed with the Underworks Econo binder.

We are getting tons of excellent reviews on our Sock Drawer Heroes Chest Binder range which we released last year. We would recommend the 'SDH Chest Binder Short' as a better alternative to the Underworks Econo Short. Our binder has a stiched hem to help prevent the bottom hem from rolling up. We use a very different fabric to the mesh-like Underworks binders - a blend which is soft and sensory-friendly and much more comfortable against the skin.

Feel free to email us if you need any help choosing a binder to work for your body, we're always happy to help!

Great first binder

Good compression. There's a nice, soft liner in the front that I wish continued on the back. Fantastic customer service too! Very responsive when it appeared to be stuck in customs.

Purchased a Binder

Binder was so good! I was initially scared it’ll be uncomfortable or painful, but it was the exact opposite! Definitely purchasing from here again!

Snug, good compression I can wear all day!

Fits well, it is a little cutting toward the armpit and a little long so needs to be rolled up. However the compression is really comfortable and feels fine to wear for a day.

Rue (Australia)

Good compression, the mesh like material on the back makes it nice and breathable, which is great for warmer weather or days where you’re on the go.

Excellent binder

Very comfortable. One size under if youre in the lower range is the right fit.

Charlie (Australia)
Comfy binder, quick shipping

Got my binder super quickly and it fulfilled my expectations 100%. I will probably size down next time for an extra bind as this is just slightly loose but still works well as a nice compression type bra.

Best binder I have had gives the best compression while also being comfortable 👍👍
