What is the primary material of this bra?

Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?

Can I wear this bra with a t-shirt?

While the longline style might show under very tight t-shirts, it generally works well with most casual tops, especially if the hem can be tucked in or if a portion of it is meant to be seen.

Troubleshooting

Bra feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the hook-and-eye closure to the appropriate setting. If the band or cups consistently feel incorrect, consider trying a different size in the same style.

Straps dig into shoulders

Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly to provide support without excessive tension. If the issue persists, the band size might be incorrect (too large).

Underwire discomfort

Ensure the bra is the correct size and fitted properly. If discomfort persists, the bra may be damaged or ill-fitting.

Fabric feels less soft after washing

Avoid using harsh detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners. Always wash on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat when drying.
