Product Insights
The I.FIV5 Cross-Strap Velvety Bra offers low to medium-impact support with a cross-strap design that eliminates back clasp pressure and shoulder strap slippage. Its peachskin microfibre wicks sweat and dries quickly, while Polygiene treatment on the entire fabric, including straps, resists odor for the garment's life. However, preserving the elastic and Polygiene requires cool washing without fabric softener or chlorine bleach, and low heat or air drying.

Deep Research
How the cross-strap back performs in yoga
- With no back closure or hook-and-eye, the cross straps create a smooth, seamless surface that won't dig into your spine during floor poses like Savasana or Pilates roll-ups, and the fabric won't catch on sticky mats during transitions.
- The thin straps cross low on the mid-back below the shoulder blades, which redistributes tension away from the shoulder slopes and prevents the straps from slipping off narrow shoulders during dynamic flows, while the low-profile design stays discreet under form-fitting tanks.
- The entire recycled nylon jersey is treated with permanent Polygiene antimicrobial technology, so the thin cross straps that sit against the sweat-prone mid-back resist odor buildup wash after wash, even through hot yoga sessions.
Velvety nylon: breathability and sweat management
- The fine nylon microfibre yarns wick moisture via capillary channels, drawing sweat from the skin to the fabric's outer face where it evaporates quickly — a property that keeps the bra dry to the touch faster than standard nylon or cotton blends.
- The peachskin finish is achieved by lightly sanding the nylon jersey to create a suede-like nap that feels drier and softer against wet skin than smooth synthetic fabrics, reducing that clammy sensation during and after a heated session.
- Recycled nylon microfibre has the same inherent moisture regain and drying speed as virgin nylon, so the sustainable material choice does not compromise the fabric's ability to dry quickly and work synergistically with Polygiene.
Caring for Polygiene treated bras
- Chlorine bleach oxidizes and degrades the silver-impregnated matrix while oxygen-based brighteners are far less aggressive, making an oxygen alternative the safer route if a color-safe brighten is ever needed after heavy use.
- Liquid fabric softeners and dryer sheets coat fibers with a waxy residue that masks the Polygiene silver-salt surface, so omitting them preserves unobstructed antimicrobial contact and truer next-to-skin freshness during low-impact sessions.
- Tumble drying on high heat stresses the polymer matrix anchoring the silver salt to the microfibre, just as it degrades the elastic; air drying or using a low-heat setting helps the bra retain its recovery and the treatment’s full efficiency.
- Polygiene is stable in cold-to-warm water up to around 40°C, but repeated hot cycles accelerate breakdown of both the recycled nylon and the bonded treatment, so sticking to cool or lukewarm settings maximizes the bra’s active lifespan and odor-control consistency.

Comfy stretchy fabric
Love the fabric on this and that it has enough stretch you don't have to struggle to get it on and off like so many sports bras
Q&A
1 answered- Does the Polygiene treatment last for the lifetime of the bra, or does it fade after a certain number of washes?
- Polygiene is a permanent antimicrobial treatment bonded to the fabric that is designed to last the lifetime of the garment with normal wear and washing. While the odor-control effectiveness may gradually decrease after many washes, it does not wash out easily. Most users find it remains effective for a long time.
