Review for
Ibex Balance Bralette - Womens
FINALLY. I have been on the hunt for ANY merino sports bra that actually fit for what feels like eternity. It is amazing how many of them are too short, or the dig into my armpits, or the straps are thin and sharp.
I'm tall, but not enormous -- 5'10" and I normally wear a size small or sometimes a medium. I was so tired of my sports bras getting funky with sweat that never seemed to dry in all the wrong places, so I decided to try merino.
I think I love everything Icebreaker makes, including this bra. It's super soft, doesn't dig into anything and the straps are wide and soft enough to not cut into my bony shoulders while wearing a heavy pack. I'm definitely going to get more of these!

Patagonia Active Mesh Bra - Women's
I want to love this bra. The material feels great, and if it fit me, it would have been awesome. However, after purchasing and returning so many Patagonia clothing items, I am finally convinced that the brand is only for the incredibly short. I've never had an issue with a BRA being too short, but this one is. It fits great around, but the straps are way too short to keep the front where the front needs to be.
I decided to give it three stars, however, because I gifted it to my super short friend (we are the same size, just minus about 10" of height) and it first her great. FWIW, I am 5'10", which is not egregiously tall, especially for underwear. I would avoid this bra if you are over 5'7" or if you have a long torso.
