Giving my friend his first chest binder! + GIVEAWAY (XL & XXL)
Thank you so much to Spectrum Outfitters for letting me give my friend Ruben his first ever chest binder, and for sponsering the giveaway for the two binders that didn't fit!
Spectrum Outfitters is a new UK based company founded by Jack Jones, who was looking for ways to improve the trans experience for himself and others. Their products are made for trans people, by trans people, and their first product is a binder!
Check out their website:
www.spectrumoutfitters.co.uk/
And their instagram:
/ spectrumoutfitters
For the binder giveaway:
This giveaway will happen on twitter! Use the size guide on the website above and use the hashtag #kovubinderXL or #kovubinderXXL depending on which size you'd like (feel free to tag me at @kovu_kingsrod as well). The winners will be chosen by Saturday the 17th of March. The winners will be mostly randomly chosen, but feel free to write a bit about why you wanna win :) Both binders are the short type, and in the colour white. I will ship anywhere, so don’t worry about where you live in the world!

Trans Fashion 101: Wearing A Binder 1. Place binder on your head. 2. Walk around like that all day. 3. Nobody will notice your chest because they will be too busy trying to figure out why you're walking around with a weird thing on your head. 4. Repeat as necessary.

Ruben is so masculine and handsome
Im from norway myself and it just makes me so happy to see people like you out and proud here. Im from the north and i know of so many old people who are just stuck in the past regarding gender. I wish i saw more people like you in my daily life here. Im so proud of What you’re doing and how you’re not gonna take any shit for it. Thank you!

My best friend really wants to get binders but her family isn't supportive. I would love to win this and give it too her so she can still bind but in a much safer way. I love her so much and I know this would make her the happiest. Thank you so much for everything you do.

I have a binder (which was a gift) that doesn't fit me and I always feel guilty for not wearing it. But then one of my friends came out as agender. So after prom (because even if it doesn't fit, I still need something for that. And they are younger and probably won't be going) I will be giving it to them. It should fit them better because even though I'm pretty small and it is tight on me, they are super tiny. I honestly cannot wait.
