The lighter weight makes it more breathable and faster drying, so it should be fantastic for swim, exercise, and sweaty days while offering a flatter bind than our Active Top or other Lightweight compression tops.

If you have a small frame and larger cup size or very soft tissue, the smaller size will likely work much better! If you still aren't sure, go with the smaller one and we can exchange for a different size if needed. Free exchanges are available within the US but may be slow, and international exchanges are subject to shipping costs, so please pick carefully! For international customers, it may be a better idea to get the larger size and have it tailored locally if it is too large, because this often costs less and is quicker than shipping an exchange.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/1513\/2573\/files\/soft_binder_4_fabrics_versions.jpg?v=1763158882\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur soft binders offer comfortable compression designed to avoid pain, difficulty breathing, chafing, sensory issues, and binder-related anxiety in addition to using fabric treated with antimicrobial and wicking finishes. While the original-level compression soft binders are still good binders for most of our customers, those with firm chest tissue may find that with the extra stretch these may not flatten as much as more rigid styles. The lightweight and flex version with more stretch will likely offer a less flattening bind and are better for low compression or overall chest compression.
