Comfortable and decent support for hikes and tides.

Ever since I discovered the wonders of merino moisture management, I've had to try a merino bra, but most of these are only for smaller women. I have the XL and it offered just enough protection and support for regular outdoor activities - I don't think I would wear it for running - but it's great for hiking - I get a sweat but it dries quickly. This bra is also great for quick drying when you have hot flashes.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Damaged

Cute but not a bra pad!

For around $50 for this sports bra I would have expected the bra pads as mentioned in the previous reviewer but unfortunately they weren't included (easy to fix by removing them from the top bikini removed) . although still disappointing). The "lining" is just another thin layer of gelding (although there is a pad pocket). The bra is very cute and comfortable. I'm usually 36-38 C/D and the big ones fit perfectly! Definitely not protecting your nipples which are visible in cold weather but…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • So-so

Great for women with small breasts

That's 4 stars for me but it could be 5 stars for a woman with smaller breasts. It's incredibly comfortable and soft, I wear it on hikes, it wicks moisture very well and keeps me dry. The only problem is that it's not very comfortable for women with large busts; I'm 5ft 3cm, 115-120lbs and usually wear a medium sized sports bra or a regular 32C/32D bra. I bought the medium and it fits great but it doesn't support or flatter the tighter combat shirts. Baggy shirts are great for hiking and I will

Pros
  • Test for one year
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Not for those with full breasts

I have full breasts (D cup) and have been gaining a bit of weight lately so I figured a size XL would be fine for me. So wrong. Somehow the company made a bra with a band that was too loose but not enough fabric in the cup. The band didn't stay under my breasts because there wasn't enough fabric to go that far. The cover was like wearing a tie bikini top. I would try size L but assume that will only solve the problem with the size of the strap, not the fabric. One star for the feel of the…

Pros
  • Sturdy design
Cons
  • Slightly ripped

Excellent bra, does not stink!

My running friend has been convincing me of the miracle of wool for a few months now. I wasn't convinced, but then I bought an Icebreaker jersey. Wonderful! So I decided to buy an Icebreaker bra. The bra I ran in (Under Armor) stinks after a 3 mile run and doesn't lose all the smell even after washing. I can wear this Icebreaker bra for 6 miles, say, a day without smell. I think it's comfortable and flattering but I can feel the slight itchiness of the fabric compared to polyester but it's not…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • I can't remember, but there was something

Odor resistance, fit, support

Odor resistance: I wear Merino wool clothing when camping and hiking. It dries easily overnight, even if it's very wet during the day, and doesn't stink even on a multi-day trip. If it was one of the categories it would have received 5+. Fit: I wear the 32D in a regular bra and it has pretty little coverage for a size small. I was hoping for a little more coverage than the other style I already have and it really delivers. A larger size will be too loose in the strap, so it won't help. There…

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Some disadvantages
