Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the shoulder straps to a more comfortable, less tightened position. Ensure the bra band is at the correct level.

Band riding up

The band may be too loose or the bra size is incorrect. Check that the band is firm against the body and consider a smaller band size if necessary. Ensure the bra is fastened on the loosest hook initially to allow for stretching over time.

Cups feel too small or tight

This may indicate the cup size is too small. Try a larger cup size, ensuring the underwire sits flat against the ribcage and the cup fully encloses the breast.

Discomfort under the arms

Ensure the bra wings are sitting flat and not digging in. Check that the straps are not over-tightened. The bra might be too small in the band.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As an undergarment, this bra requires no assembly. Proper fitting is the most crucial step for optimal performance and comfort.

Care Instructions:

  • Hand Wash Only: Use cool or lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Gently agitate the water and squeeze the bra; do not rub or wring.
  • Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure all soap is removed.
  • Reshape and Dry: Gently reshape the bra and lay it flat on a clean towel or hang it on a drying rack away from direct sunlight or heat.
