Frequently
Asked Questions:
What
is my size?
We
recommend you do two things to find your size. First, take
your measurements. Although this is not an exact science,
give it a shot before you make a purchase. X-chrom.com walks
you through the steps on our Fit
X-pert Advice page. Please realize most of you will
find you are in between sizes. This is why knowing your
measurements doesn't necessarily mean you know what size
you should order (see next question).
Second,
we recommend you take a look at what size you're wearing
now, compare this to the results of your measurements and
check for some problems like the ones below. (Remember the
cup is the letter measurement and the band is the number
measurement).
Is
there bulging out of the top or sides of the cup?
The cup is probably too small.
Is
there wrinkling all over the cup, particularly at the top
and sides?
The cup is most likely too large.
Do
the shoulder straps dig in?
Either the shoulder straps are set too tight or the band
size is too big.
Does
the bra ride up your back?
The band size is most likely too large.
What
size should I order?
The
answer to this question is not necessarily
equivalent to your measurements. Ordering the right size
takes knowing two things - what are your measurements (see
above) and how is the style you want sized (read on).
Sports
bra styles are not sized equally, even when the styles are
from the same manufacturer. Some come in size groups (small,
medium, 1X, 2X, etc.) while some come in actual measurements.
Some run small while some run large. X-chrom.com test-wore
every style we offer. We provide info to help you order
the right size on the page where you add the bra to your
shopping cart. This info may be a size group conversion
to a range of measurements found in the size box (small
= 34B-36A) or a note under the style's description.
Can
my size change?
Absolutely.
Many things we women go through affect our size. Menstruation.
Menopause. Taking medication. Weight loss. Weight gain.
Child birth. Nursing. These are just some things that can
cause your size to change. Every body reacts differently
to these influences. So, it's important to pay attention
to yourself. The solution for you is a personal choice -
some women have multiple sizes on hand while some wear different
styles for different activities.
