Have washed this multiple times now - no fading, no warping, no loss of elasticity in the band. The compression holds firm throughout every session. This is what quality gym wear looks like. Already bought the leggings to match and they are equally impressive.
The bra itself is excellent - well constructed, comfortable and holds its shape. The band detail is genuinely beautiful in person. Just make sure you follow the sizing advice and size down if you want a snug fit for higher intensity training. The quality is absolutely there.
The dark minimal look is exactly what I have been trying to find in a sports bra. ASH TO GOLD on the band is such a clean touch without being loud. Sized down one as suggested and the fit is perfect. Supportive without being restrictive. This is now my go-to gym set top.
I appreciate minimal design in gym wear and this delivers completely. No excessive straps, no logo plastered everywhere. The support is solid for yoga and moderate lifting. The fabric quality is noticeably better than what I have tried from bigger brands at a similar price point.
The medium support is real support - not the soft padded nonsense some brands call medium. The ASH TO GOLD print on the band is subtle and elegant rather than shouty. Nylon fabric feels premium against the skin throughout the entire session. Very happy with this purchase and will be getting the leggings next.
