If you're expecting a binder, you will be disappointed. If you go in expecting something between a sports bra and a binder, it's a good product that provides a decent level of compression without being as uncomfortable as an actual binder. I use my compression tops to work out in or wear when I'm not binding. I personally can't wear a compression top out of the house due to my intense dysphoria, but that's not how it will be for everyone. The meshy inner lining does take some getting used to, but it's not too uncomfortable for me. A somewhat strange thing I noticed is that the Chai compression top (size M) was softer and stretchier than the Thyme compression top (also size M). Maybe it's just because I've had the Chai one for longer, but it's something to be aware of since the Thyme one I found was better at compressing but less comfortable than the Chai one.

I was very happy with my first compression top in white, so I had my eye on the thyme compression top as soon as I noticed it was on sale. I really like that I’m able to wear the compression top as a tank top alone or as an undershirt because of the coverage it provides. I’m happy that it gives me flexibility with the types of outfits I’m able to style. I especially like the fit of the compression top because I’m used to wearing cropped t-shirts and sweaters, so it’s a familiar style. I also like that the top is easier to get into than a typical binder and the fabric fits snugly, which allows me to wear tight-fitting shirts if I’d like.

As a person with a large chest but small underbust measures (75E) it's really hard for me to find fitting binder (sorry but gc2b my ass). It's either way to tight on the boobs (ciao oxygen) or to loose on the underbust (ciao support)...or both, which is the case most of the time. Additionally I have huge body dysphoria mostly because of these very visible bangers, so I want to bind almost every day. These compression top was my life saver! It fits perfectly, which I never thought was even possible, and bind just enough to feel more comfortable in my own body but not too much so I can wear them more often (no worries I follow the binding rule 101 nevertheless). So, long story short: If you got a large chest while the rest of your body is thin like a stick - these Compression Tops are your new best friend!
