Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
For optimal support and comfort, ensure the sports bra fits snugly but not restrictively. The underband should sit flat against your rib cage, parallel to the floor, without riding up at the back. Your breasts should be fully enclosed by the cups with no spillage at the top or sides. Adjust the straps if present (this bra has fixed straps) to ensure they are comfortable and do not dig into your shoulders. A proper fit is crucial for minimizing movement and maximizing the bra's wicking capabilities.
Compatibility
This sports bra is designed to be compatible with various activewear outfits. It can be worn alone as a top during workouts or layered under tanks, t-shirts, or hoodies. Its smooth finish helps prevent chafing when worn under additional layers. The black color offers versatile pairing with most workout attire.
Care
To maintain the performance and longevity of your Lonsdale Sports Bra, follow these care instructions:
- Machine Wash: Wash cold with similar colors. Hot water can degrade the elastic fibers over time.
- Use Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can damage the fabric's wicking properties.
- Avoid Fabric Softeners: Fabric softeners can clog the pores of moisture-wicking fabrics, reducing their effectiveness.
- Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to air dry. High heat from tumble dryers can damage the elastic and affect the bra's shape and support.
- Do Not Iron: Ironing can damage the synthetic fibers and elastic.
By following these steps, you will help preserve the bra's stretch, shape, and moisture-wicking capabilities.
