Performance & fit details
Fabric Technology & Construction
We craft every Bandier sports bra with a proprietary nylon-spandex blend that balances compression with breathability. The outer layer features a tight knit construction that provides shape retention wash after wash, while the interior incorporates moisture-wicking channels that transport perspiration to the surface for rapid evaporation.
Mesh ventilation panels are strategically placed along the underband and upper back to increase airflow in your body’s highest-heat zones. The four-way stretch allows the fabric to expand and contract with your movement, ensuring the bra never restricts your range of motion during dynamic exercises.
Sizing & Fit Guidance
The Bandier sports bra runs true to size and is available in sizes XS through XXL, accommodating band sizes 30-40 and cup sizes A through DD. We recommend choosing your regular bra size for optimal compression and support.
For those between sizes, we suggest sizing up if you prefer a more relaxed compression level, or staying with your smaller size if you want maximum support during high-impact activities. The adjustable shoulder straps offer approximately two inches of length customization to fine-tune the fit across your shoulders and back.
Care & Maintenance Instructions
Machine wash your Bandier sports bra in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the fabric’s compression properties and color vibrancy. We recommend washing activewear separately or with like colors to prevent dye transfer.
Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as these chemicals can break down the technical fibers and reduce the garment’s moisture-wicking capabilities. Instead, use a mild detergent designed for performance fabrics.

Common Questions About the Bandier Sports Bra
The Bandier sports bra provides medium to high-impact support, making it ideal for running, HIIT training, circuit workouts, and competitive sports. The compression construction and internal support band work together to minimize movement during explosive exercises.
For low-impact activities like yoga or walking, you may find the compression more supportive than necessary, though many customers appreciate the secure fit for these gentler workouts as well.
The Bandier sports bra runs true to standard bra sizing. Order your regular bra size based on your band and cup measurements. If you’re between sizes or prefer less compression, we recommend sizing up.
The adjustable shoulder straps allow for additional fit customization once you receive the bra. Since this is a pull-over style without hooks, ensure you can comfortably stretch the band opening over your head while maintaining adequate compression around your ribcage.
We recommend air drying to maximize the longevity of the elastic fibers and compression properties. If you need to use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove the bra promptly when the cycle finishes.
High heat can damage the spandex content and cause the bra to lose its supportive fit over time. Always wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and avoid fabric softeners, which can break down the moisture-wicking technology.
The Bandier sports bra features integrated light padding that cannot be removed. The padding provides modest shaping and coverage without adding bulk or reducing breathability.
This design choice ensures the padding stays in place during movement and won’t shift or bunch during washing. The thin padding layer maintains the sleek, smooth silhouette while still allowing the ventilation panels to function effectively.
Yes, the Bandier sports bra accommodates cup sizes A through DD and provides excellent support for fuller busts. The combination of compression fit, internal elastic band, and adjustable straps delivers the stability larger-chested athletes need during high-impact workouts.
Many customers with DD cups specifically praise this bra for providing genuine support without creating an unflattering silhouette. The compression is firm enough to minimize movement while the four-way stretch prevents the restrictive feeling some supportive bras create.
The Bandier sports bra is currently offered in classic black, heather grey, navy blue, and deep burgundy. We rotate seasonal colors throughout the year, so additional options may become available during specific collection launches.
All colors feature the same technical fabric composition and performance capabilities. The darker shades tend to be slightly more versatile for mixing and matching with various workout bottoms and layering pieces.
The Bandier sports bra distinguishes itself through the combination of compression support and four-way stretch mobility. While many high-support bras prioritize stability at the expense of range of motion, our design allows unrestricted movement without sacrificing security.
The strategic mesh ventilation panels also set this bra apart from competitors that use solid compression fabric throughout. This thoughtful construction keeps you cooler during intense training while maintaining the supportive structure where you need it most around the band and chest area.
