great...but a bit too short
By izzy from state college PA on 5/20/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Describe Yourself:
Comfort-oriented, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish, Trendy
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: I agree with other reviewers that this top rides up and leaves about an inch of your belly sticking out. Other than that, I think its very supportive (I'm a B cup).

Sizing:
Feels true to size
Pros:
adequate bra liner, Comfortable, Soft
Best Uses:
Casual, Exercise
Describe Yourself:
Athletic, Comfort-oriented
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: This tank is well-made and comfortable, but the fit is athletically snug and trim, making it a bit short in torso lenth for my tastes; it tends to ride up to your waist with activity.

Comments: Mountain Hardware consistently makes good products, putting purpose and utility over trend. This top is just right for what it is designed to do. Unless you don't mind snug, it would not be comfortable to sleep in or wear casually. It's designed for exercise.
I'm buying more, great fabric and cut!
By sobe from Miami, FL on 3/16/2008
Pros:
Comfortable, Durable, Great built in shelf bra, Great length, Love the high back, Soft
Cons:
Order one size larger, Runs small, Too heavy of fabric
Best Uses:
Casual, Exercise, Wear it daily for walks
Describe Yourself:
Comfort-oriented, High-end shopper, Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments: I like the fabric details, I have received compliments when I wore the blue multi. I am buying my third. When I find something I like; I buy a few. The colors are great. The only down side is that it is a heavy fabric and it will be too warm to wear in the summer. The high back makes it suitable for casual wear. It is not too revealing in the front. It is cut just right. But, remember to order a size larger. Usually I am a size xs I had to order a size s. Other than that the colors are great. The tank transitions well from an exercise top to a nice casual tank. The colors go with EVERYTHING!
A little too snug, a little too warm
By Justmartha from Socorro, NM on 1/25/2008
Pros:
Durable, Nice fabric, Soft
Best Uses:
Casual, Exercise
Describe Yourself:
Comfort-oriented
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments: I've worn this shirt for about a year during my yoga practices. It gets a little too warm during the summer, and it's just a bit too snug without having enough support on top for a full-figured person. On the up side, it is a neat fabric, and it's held up well to life as a seldom-laundered workout top.
good support if you have a short torso
By jennie from palm springs ca on 12/17/2007
Sizing:
Feels true to size
Cons:
TOO SHORT, Uncomfortable
Describe Yourself:
Comfort-oriented, Conservative, High-end shopper, Practical, Stylish
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments: This is a great top EXCEPT it is an annoying length- too short to be called a full length tank and too short to be a normal bra, so you get this mid-drift length which LOVES to roll up and bunch up when I hike. Annoying. And it insulates great which unfortunately you notice most when there is a 2-3 inch gap of waist beneath your shirt which is freezing and exposed- make this top a few inches longer and it would be great- otherwise the top functions perfectly and gives great support.
