I wore the bra on the above trips, as well as two search and rescue trainings and one fishing trip. I have used the bra only under garments. I also wore it when I went dancing one night with friends and took it climbing.

I have no issues with the comfort of the bra - it has never been binding or chafed in any way. I've had a little difficulty getting it on and off, but no more so than any other athletic bra I've tried. It's just right - it hasn't loosened, bunched or sagged since I started wearing it. It gives me just the right amount of support while I'm active. I really like wearing it - I forget that I am wearing it, and I've worn it continuously for three days straight on one trip to Henry Coe.

Odor hasn't been an issue with the bra. I haven't noticed any lingering smell at any point. This is pretty impressive; I sweat a lot, especially as the temperatures rise.

What has been an issue for me was the way the bra stayed damp after a day of hiking. I had to remove it while camping or backpacking and getting ready for the night. I tried to wear the bra to bed. However, when it got colder at night, I found that the damp bra was causing me to feel cold until I removed it. On one outing I removed the bra when we set up camp, and draped it over the peak of the tent in the late afternoon sun to dry. It was still damp at bedtime. The worst example of this was my first outing to Henry Coe, when I was hiking in the continuous rain on the second day and wearing a rain jacket. With the jacket on, climbing steep hills, I sweated harder than ever and both bra and shirt were soaked. I had to remove both and put on a dry shirt in camp. The shirt dried overnight; the bra was still quite wet in the morning. I could wear the bra to bed and be comfortable, if not for this. I think this may be a combination of the thickness of the material and my copious sweating. It doesn't seem to matter that it's cold or that I'm not working that hard. My body seems to want to convince me I am really active and wets out the bra.
