Full details

FAQs
What makes the cotton 'organic'?
The cotton used is from organic farming, which means it is grown without the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This method aims to minimize environmental impact and promote biodiversity.
Is this bra suitable for larger busts?
The Cross Your Heart Bra offers full cup coverage and support. While this 38D size is designed for support, individuals with larger busts seeking significant lift or shaping might prefer styles with underwire or more structured padding.
How do I determine my correct bra size?
Measure your band size by wrapping a tape measure around your ribcage directly under your bust. Measure your cup size by loosely wrapping the tape measure around the fullest part of your bust. Use these measurements with a reliable bra size chart, or consult a professional bra fitter.
Can I wear this bra for exercise?
This bra is designed for everyday comfort and light support. It is not recommended for high-impact or moderate-impact activities where specialized sports bras offer more necessary support and bounce control.
What is the difference between padded and non-padded bras?
Padded bras contain built-in foam or padding to enhance shape, provide modesty, or add slight lift. Non-padded bras, like this one, offer a more natural silhouette without any added bulk.
How often should I replace my bras?
Bras typically last between 6 to 12 months with regular wear and proper care. Signs that a bra needs replacing include stretched-out bands, worn-out straps, loss of elasticity, and thinning fabric.
Troubleshooting
Straps are slipping
Adjust the strap length using the sliders. Ensure the bra is on the correct hook setting for a snug band. If slipping persists, the straps may be stretched, and it might be time for a replacement.
Band feels too tight or too loose
Ensure you are using the correct hook and eye closure. If too tight, try the loosest hooks; if too loose, try the tightest. If the band consistently feels uncomfortable, double-check your band size measurement.
Discomfort under the arms or around the band
Check for any internal seams or tags that might be causing irritation. Ensure the bra is the correct size and fit; sometimes a band or cup size issue can manifest as discomfort in unexpected areas.
