TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
HOW IS THE BRA’S SUPPORT GUARANTEED? (LEVEL 3 ON A SCALE FROM 1 TO 5)
This sports bra has been rated a 3 for its level of support on a scale from 1 to 5. It is suitable for all moderate impact sports.
The Merino wool MT500 bra reduces chest movement by 29.8%.
All our products are validated in our laboratories by our chest support test (measures the reduction in chest movement). They are evaluated and classified from 1 (low support) to 5 (strong support).
HOW DO I CHOOSE MY BRA SIZE?
This Merino wool bra is available in the following sizes: XS, S, M, L and XL.
It measures on the smaller side so if you are deciding between 2 sizes, we recommend you go for the next size up. For support with your size choice, click on “Size guide” (top right of the page).
WHAT TYPE OF SUPPORT DOES MY MERINO WOOL BRA OFFER?
We wear our hiking bra and our sports bra several hours a day. Therefore, it’s important that this model offers overall coverage support rather than compression support. This gives good chest protection while offering freedom of movement.
During the design, we placed importance on the good level of chest support, without necessarily putting the neck muscles (trapezoids) under tension.
A SMALL RESPONSIBLE ACTION?
We succeeded in using an innovative process in the design of the removable pads that outline the chest.
The pads are designed half with scraps from the bra manufacture, and half from polyester fibre.
HOW DO I WASH MY MERINOW WOOL BRA?
We recommend that you machine wash your Merino wool TREK 500 bra at 30° on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.
Dry flat. NEVER tumble dry.
