FAQ’s
Your bra should feel snug but comfy — like a supportive hug, not a wrestling match! No spillage, gaping, or digging allowed. If you’re constantly tugging, shifting, or adjusting, it’s definitely time for a proper fitting!
We recommend getting a bra fitting every 6 to 12 months. Your body can change with things like weight shifts, pregnancy, or hormonal changes — and even small changes can make a big difference in how your bra fits and feels. Plus, bras don’t last forever! Depending on how many you have in rotation, they can start to lose shape and support after about six months. A regular fitting keeps you comfy, supported, and feeling your best!
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to how long a bra should last — it really depends on a few key things. How many bras do you have in rotation? Wearing the same one every day wears it out faster, so having a few to switch between helps them all last longer. How you care for your bras matters too. We recommend using a gentle detergent like our in-store favourite, Eucalan, and washing every two wears to keep body oils and bacteria from breaking down the fabric and elastic. And of course, the brand matters! High-quality bras like Empreinte are designed to last longer than budget-friendly options, and with proper care, they can easily last 6 months or more.
To keep your bras in top shape, we recommend washing them every 2 wears using a gentle, no-rinse detergent — like Eucalan.
- Fill a basin or sink with room temperature water (hot water = harsh on delicate fabrics).
- Add a splash of no-rinse detergent and swirl it around.
- Gently rub areas that collect more sweat and oils, like under the arms and band area.
- Lightly press the water out — don’t wring or twist those cups!
- Hang to dry preferably by the center gore (the piece between the cups) to keep its shape.
A little extra care goes a long way in keeping your bras comfy, supportive, and long-lasting!
Your bra band should feel snug and secure — not too tight, and definitely not loose. It should sit level all the way around your body and fasten on the loosest hook when it’s new. That way, you can tighten it over time as the band stretches.
A quick fit check: Slide two fingers under the band near your ribs, just under your armpit. You should be able to pull slightly — there should be a little give, but not too much. It should feel snug (yes, maybe snugger than you’re used to!), but not tight or uncomfortable.
If your band is riding up in the back, it’s too big — time for a fitting!
Straps that fall down can mean your bra is too big, worn out, or not the right style for your shoulders.
Make sure to adjust or tighten your straps every time you wear your bra — they should sit snugly on your shoulders without digging in. When buying a new bra, check that there's plenty of room to tighten the straps over time as the bra naturally stretches.
If you have sloped shoulders, try a multiway bra or one with a J-hook to convert it into a racerback — it helps keep straps in place. We also carry silicone strap holders that do the trick!
