(More customer reviews)I am currently deployed to Iraq. I would have returned these $50 (qty two that I purchased) if I had a means to do so. They are horrible. I bought the bras to run in here in Iraq. This is a place where the male/female ratio is off the charts so one doesn't want to do anything to draw attention to themselves. I wanted a great support bra that was going to keep be from bouncing all over the place. I am a 36C---not small, not huge and these bras were worse than my worn out bras that I wear under my uniform. Like I said I would like to return them but I don't have the means to do so. Additionally, the support system used is visible thru outter garmets so you look lumpy and bumpy. I would not buy this bra ever again and I would caution consumers not to buy it with out trying it on. I hate to even give this product one star. It shouldn't have any.

Product Description:
CW-X's Ventilator Support Bra offers maximum cooling power for the warm-weather athlete.

The five-point Targeted Support Web built into each cup creates a soft suspension system for optimum motion control and maximum comfort.
About Healtha+
Healtha+ is a multifunctional, lightweight, quick-dry fabric developed by Ventex. Nanotechnology has been used in the development of Healtha+, which consists of 90 percent polyester and 10 percent spandex yarns. This combination provides a comfortable fit and freedom of movement, as well as quick-dry moisture wicking capabilities.The six-channel shape of Healtha+ fibers results in a capillary action pulling the sweat away from the skin's surface to the exterior of the fabric. Healtha+ yarn's wide surface area is also an intrinsic advantage over regular fibers. A wider surface area allows for greater moisture evaporation. This makes Healtha+ one of the fastest-drying textiles available.Healtha+ is also antibacterial and odorless through the application of silver dioxide fiber technology, preserving garment freshness. Integrated titanium oxide fiber technology protects against ultraviolet rays, providing UPF 50+.
About CW-X Gear Technology
For 40 years, scientists at Wacoal Human Science Research Center in Kyoto, Japan, have studied kinesiology, the science of human movement. They have tested over 35,000 people and analyzed injuries relative to warm-up and cool-down periods. They have come to understand the mechanics of joints and muscles in minute detail. This exhaustive study of body movement has culminated in over 50 patents worldwide.Below are some further studies demonstrating the performance-enhancing qualities of CW-X Conditioning Wear.Human Science Research Center, Kyoto, Japan: Study of electrical pulse activity in muscles
Muscles firing into motion were measured electromyographically for subjects wearing CW-X gear, subjects wearing competitor products, and subjects with bare legs. Electrical pulse activity decreased in unsupported and partly supported legs during exercise, indicative of fatigue. Legs supported by CW-X showed a negligible decrease in electrical pulse activity.
Human Science Research Center, Kyoto, Japan: Study of stability, impact, and motion
In this study, high-speed video analysis was used to compare stability, impact, and motion in CW-X products and regular compression gear. CW-X Support Web tights were 10 percent more stable and balanced and absorbed 12 percent more shock to the knee than regular compression tights. CW-X Support Web tops allowed 9 percent greater range of motion for the arm than regular compression tops.
University of Montpelier, France: Study of VO2 oxygen uptake levels
This study measured VO2 oxygen uptake levels over the course of 15 minutes of running in CW-X gear, regular compression tights, and running shorts. CW-X Support Web tights showed 26 percent less oxygen use than regular compression tights and 36 percent less oxygen use than traditional running shorts, indicating lower energy expenditure.About CW-X
