FAQs

What type of activities is this bra best suited for?

This bra is suitable for a range of activities, including running, gym workouts, yoga, and other moderate to high-impact exercises, thanks to its supportive design and sweat-wicking fabric.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide, which typically includes measurements for band size and cup size. Ensure you measure accurately before purchasing.

Can I use fabric softener when washing this bra?

No, avoid using fabric softener. It can clog the technical fibers and reduce the sweat-wicking and breathable properties of the material.

How often should I replace my sports bra?

Sports bras typically last between 6 to 12 months of regular use, depending on the frequency of wear, washing habits, and the level of activity. Signs it's time for a replacement include loss of elasticity, stretching, and reduced support.

What does 'four-way stretch' mean for the bra?

Four-way stretch means the fabric can stretch and recover in both width and length directions, allowing for maximum freedom of movement and a comfortable, adaptive fit during any activity.

Are the bra pads machine washable?

Yes, the removable bra pads are generally machine washable. It is recommended to remove them before washing the bra itself and wash them according to the garment's care instructions.

Why must technical fabrics be washed separately from cotton?

Cotton fibers can snag on the finer, technical fabrics, causing pilling or damage. Additionally, cotton can retain moisture and slow down the drying process of technical materials, and its lint can interfere with the performance of sweat-wicking properties.

Troubleshooting

Bra feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided sizing chart. For minor adjustments, consider using the removable pads to alter the fit.

Discomfort or chafing during activity.

Verify the bra is worn correctly and the straps are properly adjusted. Ensure the wide underbust band is sitting comfortably. If discomfort persists, check the care instructions to ensure the fabric's elasticity hasn't been compromised.

Reduced support over time.

Follow the care instructions diligently, especially regarding washing temperature and avoiding tumble drying, which can degrade elasticity. Wash separately from abrasive materials like cotton.

Fabric feels less breathable or sweat-wicking.

Ensure the garment is clean and free from detergent residue. Improper washing or using fabric softeners can affect the fabric's performance. Re-wash following care instructions.
