How do I get the right measurements?
Getting the right measurements is essential to getting the right size of binder for you. If you're getting our sports binder or basic binder, you'll need your bust and shoulder measurements. You'll need your bust, waist, hip, and shoulder measurements for the singlet binder.Ā
You can get your bust measurement by measuring under your armpits over the fullest part of your chest (circumference).Ā Waist measurements are taken all the way around the top of your hipbone (circumference). To get your hip size,Ā you'll need toĀ measure around fullest part of your hip, usually at the fullest part of your buttocksĀ (circumference). Lastly, the shoulder measurement can be taken from one end of the shoulder (where your shoulder meets your arm) to the other.
To get the most accurate measurements, we recommend wearingĀ close-fitting or no clothing. Taking your measurements over layers of clothingĀ may lead to inaccurate results.
Which binder is best for me?
Chest binders are meant to be tight, like a second skin. You should be able to breathe and move easily without the binder causing any unnecessary discomfort. That being said, we have a wide range of binders to accommodate different needs, preferences, and body types.
If you have a fuller, firmer chest, we recommend choosing a binder with our extra strong material since they have more compression power, which will give your chest a flatter appearance.
Some people have a large difference between their bust and waist sizes - if this is the case for you, and you're looking to get a singlet binder from us, we recommend choosing the size that corresponds to your waist size, not your chest size. Since our singlet binders compress all the way down the torso, this will ensure that you have enough room to breathe (and will make binding more comfortable for you).
If you have a larger chest, we recommend choosing a singlet binder rather than a half-binder because the extra fabric allows for more compression and gives your chest more room.
If you are between sizes, or have broader shoulders, we recommend choosing the larger size.
Ultimately, the right type of binder depends on your preferences and your lifestyle. Binding safely means choosing the right size. Please do not deliberately choose a smaller size. Getting the binder on will be difficult, and binding too tightly can lead to injury and other health concerns.Ā

BOXERS
What are the boxers made of?
The boxers are partially made from modalĀ (45%). Modal is biodegradable and eco-friendlyĀ because of its natural content. Itās made from the cellulose of the beech tree and it sustainably harvested. The beechwood cellulose is mashed into a liquid, turned into a fiber, and woven into a fabric. All trees and plants are made up of cellulose and they can (re-)produce more of it, thereby renewing themselves and enabling a sustainable harvest.Ā Ā
Ā
Can I swim in my boxers?
Yes, you can. Both our packing boxers and our gender-neutral boxers are swim-friendly, and can be worn under your swimming shorts. Because of the design of our all-in-one packing boxers, the foam packer is 100% secure during any physical activity, including swimming.
To preserve the quality of your boxers, we recommend rinsing them in fresh water after swimming in chlorinated water or in the sea.

BINDERS
Can I swim in the binders?
Our binders are swim-friendly! We recommend rinsing your binder in fresh water after swimming in chlorinated or sea water to preserve its quality.
Ā
Can I exercise safely in your sports binders?
Yes, you can safely exercise in Paxsies sports binders.
Our sports binders were specifically designed to provide minimal pressure on your ribs without compromising on chest-compression power.Ā The important thing with a binder is that your lungs should be able to expand and contract freely during physical activity. Our sports binders have been examined by several doctors and medical staff and they meet those criteria.
Please note that it is very important that you wear the right size of binder, especially during exercise. Wearing a binder that is too tight during any physical activity can lead to serious injury.
Ā
How can I find my size?
For more sizing information for our binders, please see our binder sizing charts for sizing advice. If you're still unsure about which size or model of binder to get, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us so we can help you get the right fit!
