Binds well, hard to take off

The product binds really well, but it is SO difficult to take off. I have a medium, and a large is too big, but I had so much trouble trying to pull it off.

Sizes are so small

I wanted to like these so much and I was so excited for them. I have to be honest, I'm really disappointed. These swim shorts are so, so small. I measured myself and followed the guide. I'm really sad because I was looking forward to wearing them on holiday. They're not the wrong size, they're wearable, but they're all small and fitted. Sadly I'll probably have to try finding shorts with a packing pouch from another supplier next time, because I want a loose casual shape for the shorts, that's the whole point.

I also don't think it's great that you label fairly standard body shapes as large and extra large, especially when your sizes are so small on top of that. It shouldn't matter but we all know how the world is about size and weight. I expect it from some shops but given the type of shop you are, there is an opportunity for you to be like Snag Tights, Lucy and Yak etc and reframe the way shops talk about size, often very at odds with people's actual body shapes and sizes.

I will say that the quality itself is good, the colour and fabric is great. And the three in one boxers are fine this size because it doesn't matter if they're very fitted.

Also, the foam packer is fantastic and I feel really good in it, so thank you for that.

Sorry to write a negative review, I like your products and ethos. But I'm quite sad at how this had left me feeling.

We really appreciate your feedback, and truly regret that our Swimshorts have not worked for you. We do completely understand about language around sizing and is one of the reasons we do not list our model's sizing - to encourage customers to use our size guide but also not to 'pigeon-hole' our models as we understand that sizing is secondary to ensuring the item is comfortable and practical.

We're very glad to hear that other parts of your order met your expectations, and thank you very much for your choosing us!

Struggled to get help via customer…

Struggled to get help via customer services. Delivery sent to wrong address.

Luckily it was delivered in person by the resident to whom it was sent. Customer services have still not been in touch since I first asked for help on 16/07 which is 8 days ago from today.

We're very sorry we did not get back to you - we can see you used our pre-generated Help Centre messages but we could not identify what help you needed. We're really glad the order arrived with you eventually, and can promise you that we do endeavour to attend to all issues within 3 working days, and we regret we did not pick up on your problem

Loved the binder

Loved the binder, the quality is great!! Really flattens the chest, and I have a fairly large one. It’s a super comfortable material, too. I wore it out to the park and it was great! Shipping was insanely fast, too, and I loved the little note of who packed my order.

10/10 Overall

The short binder is of amazing quality, it's quite comfortable to wear, and it has the perfect compression for what I wanted to achieve! Along with that, my package arrived pretty quickly considering I live in the US.
10/10 experience!

super happy w/ the binder light!!

ordered the binder light and i’m very happy!! delivery was super prompt, the sizing is perfect and the material is super lightweight and breathable so will be perfect for when i wear it while working :3 as expected it’s less compressive than my usual binders but it’s a fair trade-away for less restriction/more breathability! very satisfied!!

I ordered a pair of swim shorts in size…

I ordered a pair of swim shorts in size S as the size guide had indicated would be the correct fit. They run way too small for me such that I can wear them but I can barely move in them so they are unusable.
Please expand your size guide to include hip measurements, buttocks, and/or widest point and if doable also thighs.
The swim shorts seemed like a nice product if they had been the right size and I really like your binders and Spectrum Outfitters in general which is why I’m still giving 4 stars. Just please improve your size guide.

Best binders and good for the environment! :)

I am so damn grateful for these binders! I tried several and none is as comfortable as the ones I bought from Spectrum. Their advise for the size fits perfect for me and I love that they care about this planet and actually do something to help the environment :)
They are great! Thank you!

Very comfortable, but still rides up.

I've yet to wear the binder for a full day out so far, but I love the light feel of it. It adapts nicely around my shape and I can feel the difference compared to other binders I've tried before (which were very stiff and hard to move in, with comparable compression). It sadly rolled up as soon as I sat down and I have to do quite a bit of fiddling with it to get it to sit nicely on me without creating a big rolled up edge that hurts my ribs.

Pros and Cons

Pros: Skin-tone binders are a great thing! I love that there are a range of shades to choose from. The quality is great too.

Con: The sizing system is bonkers. I’m a UK26 or 3XL usually in most clothing brands. But on this site I’m a 7X. That’s the largest size too. Not great really.
