Troubleshooting
Bra straps digging into shoulders
Ensure the bra is the correct size and that the straps are adjusted properly. If the issue persists, consider a bra with wider straps or a different style.
Underwire poking out or causing discomfort
Check if the bra is too small or if the underwire casing has torn. Discontinue use if the underwire is damaged to prevent injury. Proper washing and care can help prevent this.
Bra not providing enough support
Verify that the band is snug against the body and the cups fit correctly. The underwire and full cup design are intended to provide support, so an improper fit is likely the cause.
Lace feels rough or irritating
Ensure the bra has been washed according to care instructions, which can soften the fabric. If irritation continues, this specific bra style may not be suitable for very sensitive skin.
