Materials and design
The bra is made with 81% of polyamide and 19% of elastane. The result is a product capable of combining a series of highly performing and different technical specifications, ideal for finding the compromise that best suits your daily wear needs. There is no shortage of benefits for these two materials that are light and comfortable like a second skin.
Conversely, among the negative elements to take into consideration, we should mention the lack of absorbent properties and sensitivity to high temperatures which you should keep in mind when washing the product. It can therefore be washed in the washing machine at medium temperature, in order to guarantee a constant environment for the molecular chains in the fabric of your bra.
The combination of polyamide and elastane used in Playtex 18 Hour Full Coverage Bra has a good resistance, which allows the product to withstand the stress typical of daily activities without effort.
The bra is available in white, black and nude colors; it is a full-coverage bra with a frontal hook-and-eye closure and a reinforced backside. The straps are adjustable and wide, and so is the under-cup band, both designed to protect your skin from etching into.
