Title: where to buy Esha binders or Nabe/Nabay binders
Post by: Everyone on November 15, 2010, 12:18:11 AM
I tried the official site for Nabe binders, but they are sold out of all of them. I thought it might just be the english site, so I tried the japanese version, but I can only read like 4 kanji so I wasn't able to figure out where to go. Originally I was going to get an Esha binder from Lesloveboat.com, but they seem to not have them anymore. Where else could I get either of these binders?


Edit: I contacted lesloveboat, and they said it is only temporary. They are getting newer ones in stock. =]

Have you contacted the Love Boat folks?  They're very quick to reply to e-mails.  You can also try contacting the Esha manufacturer directly: wow.wow.wear@gmail.com.  Good luck, and please let us know if you find out any news!

thats so weird, love boat used to have them last week. SUCKS! which model were you planning on getting? you can buy esha binders directly from esha - esha is actually "esha girls bar & wear" so you could google that or try contacting them through their facebook:

the nabe shirts have been sold out for ages and the japanese page says the very same thing. if i remember correctly, those were really expensive though, right? maybe if you could tell me what kind of binder you're looking for (long, short, velcro, zipper, color, style), i can think of where to get one like that.

i would contact love boat first, though - maybe they are just restocking or something?

I was going to get the long extra-strong velcro binder.

Yeah, I think most of the nabe shirts were really expensive. I'm looking for any binder under $60 that can get me really flat. I don't really care how uncomfortable it is, cause even ace bandages are comfortable enough for me. Thanks for your help =]

I was having trouble contacting them, but I managed to make my computer load so that the email would send. I saw a blog spot about the binders, would that be a place to go to get them? Or would I contact them to get one? Thanks for your help. ^^

hum. i got the long extra strength binder and ended up cutting it short but it still didn't have the binding power of the extra strength short binder. the extra strength short binder is pretty awesome though. so is their cheaper short binder. you would get similar binding power with this one:

(there is a long version of it too, i believe, but haven't tried it)
.....and most underworks binders.
sorry i can't be of more help, i wear short binders only :(

Thanks for the link =] I've looked through a lot of their binders now, and that one seems pretty good. But I think it does about as good as ace bandages, judging by the picture. Thanks for your help though. =)

i wouldn't say binders generally do a better job than ace bandage, flattening-wise. they just don't hurt, enable you to move more freely and usually stay in place for more than an hour.....what i like about the binder i linked is that the material is very thin and breathable.....if you don't care too much about that, you could also try the double "bandage" binder:

That one looks really good =] I might get it, I will still be looking around for a while though.
