Quick Answer
Wash your Defy Bra Tank in cold water on a gentle cycle, lay it flat to dry, and avoid fabric softeners and high heat to preserve its smoothing stretch and support.
Why gentle care matters for seamless bras
Seamless bras like the Defy Bra Tank rely on continuous knit construction for their smoothing effect and lift. Harsh washing or drying can break down the elastic fibers, causing the bra to lose its shape and support faster.
The Defy Bra Tank is designed for comfort and versatility, whether you're layering, lounging, or recovering from surgery. Proper care helps maintain that soft, supportive feel over time.
Trade-offs in care routines
Hand washing is the gentlest option, but a machine's delicate cycle with a mesh bag works well if you're short on time. Just skip the spin cycle's high speed, which can twist and stress the fabric.
Air drying takes longer than using a dryer, but it protects the bra's elasticity. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting and remove the bra while slightly damp.
Defy Bra Tank Care FAQ
How often should I wash my Defy Bra Tank?
Wash after every 2–3 wears, or more often if you sweat heavily. Frequent washing can stress the fibers, so let it air out between wears.
Can I machine wash my bra tank?
Yes. Use cold water, a gentle cycle, and place the tank in a mesh laundry bag. Fasten any hooks and avoid washing with items that have zippers or hooks that could snag the fabric. Always use a mesh bag to protect the knit.
What detergent should I use?
Use a mild, liquid detergent without bleach or fabric softener. Fabric softeners can coat the fibers and reduce elasticity over time.
How should I dry my Defy Bra Tank?
Lay it flat on a towel, reshaping it to its original form. Avoid wringing, hanging (which can stretch the straps), and high-heat dryer cycles. Reshape while damp for best results.
How should I store it?
Fold it flat or roll it loosely in a drawer. Avoid folding the cups inward or hanging it by the straps, as this can distort the shape over time.
