WARNING: Improper use of TransTape can cause adverse short- and long-term side effects. Our method is safest when used correctly. Please read all instructions before application or contact us for more information. TransTape should not be used on broken or open skin. Doing so may cause additional irritation, blisters, and open sores which could lead to infection if not properly treated. Consult a doctor if you experience any signs of infection including fevers, chills, discharge, or vomiting. TransTape should never be fully wrapped around the torso, please refer to application video and inserts. Rare but possible signs of rib deformity include shortness of breath, chest pain, or abnormal breathing. Please cease use and contact your physician if you experience any of these symptoms.
What is TransTape?
- TransTape is a gender-affirming body transformation system for transgender, gender-fluid, gender non-conforming and asexual humans. It is backless, strapless, waterproof and sweat-proof. We offer 3 sizes; small (7.5cm wide), medium (10cm wide) and large (12.5cm wide). We offer multiple skin tones to best match your skin for optimal discretion. TransTape may be worn as a chest binder, or a packer harness or gaff. It may be used at the beach, in the pool or in the shower. TransTape may be safely worn for up to 5 consecutive days
- What are the benefits of TransTape versus a traditional chest binder?
- Binding vs taping are drastic in comparison.
- Binding, in our opinion, is extremely risky and dangerous. It is uncomfortable and very damaging for the body. Binding compresses the torso and all the organs hiding inside. It is known to puncture lungs, break ribs and restrict breathing. Binders have a time limit of 8 hours max of “safe” wear-ability. Although binders can get wet, they should NOT be worn in water; either swimming showering or the such. Binders cover the entire upper body keeping heat and sweat inside causing over-heating and exhaustion to happen rather quickly. Binders are not discreet as they cover the entire chest, shoulders and back, causing obvious lines and marks in your clothing and cannot be worn without a shirt.
- TransTape is extremely breathable and flexible and moves freely with the body. TransTape allows you the freedom to engage in and participate in all activities, water sports included! It is waterproof and sweat-proof and is able to be worn safely for up to 5 consecutive days! This means that you may go to bed as yourself in a body you recognize, wake up in that body and step into the shower with that body and still have that body reflect how you see yourself. You may then exit the shower (wrap your towel around your waist!) and dress your body in any way you feel you’d like to express yourself.
- Given the lack of compression and the level of mobility TransTape provides, it is great in the gym as it allows for full range of motion and allows you to have perfect form. TransTape does not compress the spine or ribs and allows the muscles to move naturally, resulting in better posture and a more confident presence.
- Transtape creates the illusion of a masculine or non-binary chest without the risks and costs of top surgery and can be worn with all garments while still being discreet
TransTape is a great alternative to traditional gaffs and tucking methods. Its discreet nature allows for undetectable tucking in even the smallest of bottoms and is easily cut to your specific length and width. It’s important to remember how sensitive your skin is and be sure to create a barrier between your genital skin and the adhesive. We recommend using a sheet of gauze or creating a liner using TransTape. It’s also very important to follow proper removal instructions. More information on application and removal can be found on our manual HERE.
