Company releases nude chest binder line for different skin tones
site launches diverse transitional apparel

Trans-friendly apparel company GC2b has launched a line of nude colored chest binders designed to match a variety of skin tones.
The binders, sometimes used by transgender or non-gender conforming individuals, are offered in five nude colors and are suitable for swimming or tanning without revealing too much skin. The company’s overall binder collection includes 11 colors.
Sizes range from XXS to 5XL. Binders are available in half size, the size of a sports bra, and full size, the size of a tank top.
“Take the worry out of fun in the sun. So go ahead, take it off. We got you covered,” the company said in a Facebook post promoting the line.
Prices range from $33 to $35 and are available for purchase on the company’s website.

The Opening Reception for the 34th annual D.C. Black Pride was held at the Capital Hilton on Friday, May 23.
