Fits perfectly. I love the style. I usually wear a small and the small fits like a gem. Very flattering for small chest and broad shoulders. Washes well. Looks great under a tank or dress for casual wear; also supportive for workouts.
The cut of this bra is awkward. The straps are very long and the cups are very small. I got the size according to their size guide, and it does not work for my bust size. I ordered a small, expecting it to be perfect, because I have a similarly styled PrAna bra that’s a medium and is now far too big on me, but this one runs pretty small, more like xs. Returning and not trying a bigger size due to the long straps and no adjustability. This would better suit a small bust and tall torso.
When you have a small rib cage and (relatively) large breast, a compromise must be made. Do you get the correct band size (XS) and deal with spillage/boob bulge/quardra-boob, or do you get the correct cup size (M) and deal with a band that rides up and doesn’t provide proper support? Obviously there’s no winning here, only good enough (the compromise of S for most brands). Well, it might be gross but I wore this bra for 5 days straight when it arrived. Why? Because it fits me nearly perfectly. It’s comfortable, the band doesn’t ride up, and there’s a liiiittle bulge but no spillage. It provides light/medium support. Not sure I’d run in it, but if you’re not bouncing, it’s solid. The fixed straps fit me just fine, no issue. I got the almond color and it’s a lovely cream, as expected. I love this bra. I’m going to buy another one. Before prAna redid their sizing in spring ‘24, their XS bras fit me best. Since then a S has fit “best.”
Really liking this new bra so far. I know the fixed length straps might not work for everyone, but I really prefer them. Please continue making fixed length strap, non-racerback bras! I’m 5’9”, slender athletic build with a C cup and the medium fits perfectly. The removable cups even stayed in the bra after the washer/dryer, a miracle!
The trendy long-line bras do not fit around my rib cage and I have small busts, so usually sizing up doesn't work. This bra is stretchy and snug, so there isn't space in the busts! Yay!!! The only thing I don't like are the high armpits. It is really comfortable on my back, but chafes my underarms a little.
Love this as a casual/light duty bra. Fits me way better than a some lulu's, which tend to dig in under my arms. I have an athletic build with broad lats/shoulders, 5'10", 36" chest and I ordered a M. Fabric is soft but also stretchy and wicking.
Despite the Q/A, this does have removable padding. I wear these bras for everyday and when I go into the work, which is active. I like the bra cups to avoid any looks at the office. After work, I can go on a light hike.
Love this bra! It's really supportive and feels like a hug. The structure and quality are great. I slip this on almost every day, and I could definitely wear this as a top by itself with high wasted bottoms.
I LOVE this bra! Comfortable, supportive and can be worn exercising, swimming or for every day use under a shirt. It would be great if you could make a one piece bathing suit in this style!
Really happy with this bra. It’s minimal in the amount of fabric, and does the job in terms of looks and support. Cute enough to wear alone without covering up.
