Comments about Patagonia Capilene Mesh Bra A/B:

I absolutely LOVE this bra! I'm one of those people that usually has to wear 3 bras (regular as a base and two sports bras) but this one solved all my troubles! It provides a lot of support and stability without that pancake or uniboob effect! Plus it is super cute! This is my favorite bra and I will probably get at least one more for another color!

  • Cup Fit:
  • Feels true to size
  • Band Size:
  • Feels true to size

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Patagonia Capilene Mesh Bra A/B:

    If you are an A/B this is THE top for you. I wear this for all my sports and have never been disapointed. Because it is designed for A/B you may want to order up a size since you are only sizing yourself on an A/B scale. Patagonia clearly says this bra is for A/B cups.You should not give this bra a poor rating because it doesn't provide support beyond a B.

    • Cup Fit:
    • Feels true to size
    • Band Size:
    • Feels too small

      This sports bra is the best I've ever owned. One drawback is that if you have broader shoulders, the straps can chafe, especially under backpack straps.

      Comments about Patagonia Capilene Mesh Bra A/B:

      I didn't believe the other comments about the small sizing - I'm a 34A and I'm used to having to buy either S or XS in most things, and when I've had trouble with Patagonia sizing, things have tended to run a size large.

      It is indeed sized small. I could certainly wear a S, but it was not going to be comfortable over time - I could feel it constricting my breathing and it squished up my skin in the underarms.

      Other than that, it was cute, the fabric is a nice combination of sturdy and soft - very stretchy in a supportive way - and the straps are placed well. (They don't adjust, which is usually a problem for me, but not these.)

      I'm going to try again with a larger size - fingers crossed!

        Comments about Patagonia Capilene Mesh Bra A/B:

        With my C cup size, I was amazed this bra fit, but my 36C body fit into a medium size very well. I wore them day and night for a week of kayaking and never had to tug, pull or yank this bra once! Very comfortable! I don't usually have anything good to say about bras and only enjoy taking them off, but I loved these and the styles are so cute. I will use it for a swim top with trunks, a sport top and a bra under clothing it's that versatile.

          I love love love this sports bra. I've got four, and would gladly get another. They hold up well to use, wash well, wear well. The design has improved over time - the newer ones have slightly fuller, more supportive coverage.
