The story behind Transtore.
Transtore was born in 2017 out of a need: to offer trans men products that bring comfort, security, and everyday well-being. More than just a store, it came from lived experience, and that's the story we want to share with you.
It all started with Stevan Queiroz, known to many as Téhh Queiroz, founder of Transtore. From here on, he's the one telling the story of how it all happened.
In the early days of my transition, I was constantly searching for a way to feel good in my own skin. Before my top surgery, I used duct tape on my chest and tight tops to try to hide the shape. I had surgery in 2015, and soon after, what started bothering me even more was the lack of a visible bulge in my underwear and swim trunks. I kept avoiding beaches and pools, afraid of how people would look at me.
I tried everything to figure it out on my own: shaping it with socks, padding, smaller prosthetics that I would cut hoping to get something realistic and comfortable. Nothing worked. The sock would soak up water, and everything looked artificial. There was also a fear that few people imagine, being held hostage by public restrooms, risking finding only urinals in the men's room, or ending up in situations where I couldn't simply sit down to pee.
These frustrations made it clear to me that I needed to find a solution. I didn't want to keep living that way.
In October 2016, the first prototype of the Allday Packer was ready: a packer about 10 cm long, small, flexible, soft, and comfortable, with a hollow internal channel that allowed standing to pee and also worked for intercourse.
I started using it every day, and the change went far beyond how others saw me. It was an internal shift. Using the packer made me feel good in my own skin and gave me the confidence to go out in public without that old weight on my shoulders.
At the time, I was a YouTuber. I made videos, had a following on YouTube and Facebook, and shared openly about my transition. In early 2017, I started offering the Allday Packer to a few friends through social media. Demand grew, and it was in March 2017 that this movement really took shape and gave rise to Transtore.
I wanted other trans guys, who were going through the same situations I was, to know these products existed and to be able to have the same experience I had.
That's always been the goal: to give other trans men the same turning point I experienced.
New products came from combining my own needs with those of our customers, who kept sharing what would make their everyday lives easier. That's how the Strap Binder, padded underwear, packer-compatible underwear, other packer and binder models, and so on, came to be. Constantly listening to our customers is what got us here.
The focus has always been quality, products that truly deliver results and a good experience, not just any solution.
