Troubleshooting

Bra feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the hook-and-eye closure or the shoulder straps for a better fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size, paying close attention to both band and cup measurements.

Straps dig into shoulders.

Loosen the shoulder straps slightly. Ensure the band is sitting correctly on your ribcage, as a band that is too loose can cause straps to bear too much weight.

Fabric pilling after washing.

Follow the recommended care instructions carefully: wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, use mild detergent, and avoid high heat drying. Laying flat to dry is often best for cotton blends.

Underwire discomfort (if applicable to specific styles not detailed here).

This specific model is described as lightly lined balconette, suggesting minimal or no underwire. If discomfort occurs, ensure the bra is the correct size and that the band is properly positioned.
