The Pool Days D+ Teal Minimalist Bralette is a swim top from Left on Friday designed for D+ fuller busts, offering more coverage than the standard Pool Days style. It is made from ultra-soft, sculpting fabric that resists wear, saltwater, and chlorine, with soft unpadded cups, double thin straps, and inner seams. Customer feedback suggests the fit runs small and the fabric is relatively thin due to its unpadded minimalist construction, so consider ordering up or testing for intended support.

Product Insights

The Pool Days D+ Teal Minimalist Bralette from Left On Friday is a $120 swim top designed for larger busts (D+), offering underwire-free support through a ribcage-sized band, 16% Lycra compression, and a double-strap system that distributes shoulder tension while adding center and side coverage. Its thin, chlorine-resistant fabric (38% polyester) requires rinsing before and after swimming to maintain stretch, but buyers report nipple visibility and trapped air bubbles that create a puffy appearance when wet. Sizing is accurate only with precise ribcage and bust measurements—many users find it runs small—and returns are limited to store credit with no refunds for fit issues. The top suits moderate activities like surfing and yoga, not daily lap swimming, and its fixed-length double straps forgo adjusters for a clean look, reflecting the ex-Lululemon founders' design heritage of minimalism adapted for D+ coverage.

Verified claims

Sizing
Accurate fit requires measuring bust and ribcage rather than relying on bra size; most customers and reviewers recommend sizing up, especially for 34D and above, because the tops run small.
Coverage
D+ bralette adds center and side coverage and uses a double-strap system to distribute shoulder tension.
Material
Above-average 16% Lycra content delivers compressive support wet and dry; rinsing before and after swimming preserves the stretch.
Support engineering
16% Lycra, a ribcage-sized band, and double thin straps provide support without underwire.
Sheerness
Buyers report nipple visibility through the thin fabric, especially when wet.
Fit
16% Lycra keeps the top compressive and supportive when wet.
Chlorine resistance
Resistant to chlorine and sun fade for casual and beach swim.
Activity range
Designed for moderate activity like surfing and yoga, not daily lap swimming.
Straps
Each shoulder has two thin, fixed-length straps, so fit is customized by sliding the back closure higher or lower rather than adjusting strap length.
Durability
Rinse protocol and 38% polyester protect against chlorine damage.
Design heritage
Ex-Lululemon founders added D+ coverage while keeping the sleek minimal look.
Support vs underwire
For a full D cup, this bralette offers less support than an underwired swim top; it relies on compressive fabric, soft unpadded cups, and the D+ cut, and some community feedback finds it insufficient for active swimming.

Source Threads

  • Top too small and thin with poor return policy

    I didn’t open the package of the extra one, offered to send it back. Nope—I got credit instead. Also, both tops don’t fit at all. They’re way too small and made of very thin fabric. Everything shows and the girls can’t squeeze in, but I can’t return them.

  • Nipple show-through and air bubbles when wet

    Once I swam with it a number of issues came up. Air bubbles get trapped because of their compressive material (essentially just two pieces of the same fabric). Nipples also show if you get in and out of the water.
