Hello lovely’s, I need some recommendations for binding tape. Every one I’ve found videos and reviews of are all for smaller chested individuals, so I was wondering if there are brands that are good for larger chests

Also if anyone has recommendations for ones that are good for sensitive skin those would be greatly appreciated too

large chest trans man here, i use trans tape and it does a pretty good job, just be sure to let it soak with some oil before removal. unfortunately there really is only so much you can bind with a larger chest.

I personally think anything branded as “trans tape” is overpriced and not worth it. Cotton KT tape works great for my larger chest— the adhesive can be harsh like any body tape so definitely use baby oil to get it off. I will also say if your chest is pretty large, it’s unlikely you will be perfectly flat. I use it to accompany my binder (which I have affirmed with my doctor is safe in moderation).

I don’t know what level of “large chest” you’re working with but I (also have a large chest) was told that there is no way it would do anything for me. However I do know you NEED to use oil to help remove it!!

use protective barrier wipes! they’re made for prepping skin for adhesive, it helps both to reduce damage to the skin and for the tape to stick better
