Sizing ChartPatagonia Women's Active Mesh Bra
Wear this bra on its own for afternoon trail runs or as a base layer during moonlight ascents. Stretchy, soft and nonrestrictive, its agile mesh wicks efficiently and is doubled throughout for extra support and opacity. Comfortable straps fall to a flattering V in the back. Colors (except black) display an interwoven graphic at the center-front. With a seamless, chafe-free construction; re-sized this season to provide a truer fit.
- Stretchy, body-conforming fabric won't restrict your moves while managing moisture transport
- Comfortable, supportive straps fall to a "V" in the back so they won't slide off your shoulders and allow for unobstructed movement
- Seamless construction eliminates chafing
- Select colors have a graphic design on center-front (except black)
- 8.1-oz. 95% nylon, 5% spandex mesh with Capilene performance
- 71 g. (2.5 oz.)
- Imported.

Fits true to size, would recommend and purchase again and love the colors
Lynn from Ohio - 2009-12-26Great Versatility
The size "Small" is a great fit for my size I am a small 34A. So comfortable one can sleep in it. Attractive style along with the matching panties. In hot weather I can wear this as a top after reaching the campsite and taking off my backpack and T-shirt to cool down after a long hike. Very nice product.
Catherine Lang Miller - 2009-09-22Love it!
This is my favorite sports bra. I have several in different colors. It's soft, comfortable, and wicks well. I wear it for hiking, backpacking, and to the gym. It gives good support without feeling squished. I love it!!

Irina - 2009-09-10Amazing!
This is the best sports bra! It is seamless yet has great support.
Giovanna Coraggio - 2009-09-03Great!
It is tight when you first put it on, but loosens up. The material is really nice. The back band is wider than I would like for everyday use, but this will make a great hiking and swimming bra! I bought a Large and I'm a C 36. It fits perfectly. I would not run in this bra but I really like tight bras for running because of my size. I bought the Isis Daisy bra with this too and I think I'll choose that for everyday wear.
Altrec had super fast shipping!

Comfortable, great for high intensity too!
Anonymous - 2009-07-28THE goto bra!
This is my GOTO hiking, biking, kayaking, etc bra, as well as the only bra I turn to on hot and humid summer days! THE BEST!
Heidi S. in Sacramento - 2009-07-27My favorite bra!
I love the comfort and support of this bra and use it for everyday but for a C cup its not enough support to run in.
Anonymous - 2009-07-24Great Value
I love this bra. Good support for general workout, not the best for running. Looks really good on and comfortable. I am a 38C and I ordered a Large.
Anonymous - 2009-07-15excellent sport bra
I got my bra in black. I believe it runs small, since I'm usually 34A and size M fits me just fine. It is comfortable enough to wear all day long. Fabric is nice and not itchy. Great support. I love this sport bra!
Anonymous - 2009-06-26Love this sports bra
I have been searching for a new brand of sports bra for some time now, but being an avid runner, I am quite picky. I wanted something that would be supportive enough for running, comfortable enough for a day of hiking and nice enough looking to be worn to yoga without having to put something on over it. This bra is a perfect find. It meets all of my requirements. I would highly recommend (and already have) this bra to walkers, runners, hikers or yoga enthusiasts. Great bra at a great price.
Anonymous - 2009-06-24Love this bra
For years now, I have worn these for pretty much everything...biking, yoga, hiking, backpacking.
It's comfortable and perfect for low-impact activity.
Deborah 2009-23-09 - 2009-06-23BRA-TASTIC
This bra has wonderful light to moderate support and nice colors to complement your mood in the moment. Modest enough to wear by itself to yoga. I wear them daily. Very comfortable. I'm a small petite person, 32C, but found that the S rather than XS was a bit more comfortable.
I'm not sure how these bras wear, but I'll be buying a couple more to satisfy my artistic whims.
Anonymous - 2009-06-09Very comfortable
Great for wearing around or low impact activities. Very comfortable and great looking
Anonymous - 2009-05-11Best Bra Ever!!!!
I bought three of them! Enough said.
Carolyn G. - 2009-03-26Love the Comfort and Medium Support
This is a great bra. Comfortable and supportive without the smashing feeling other athletic bras can give. I was apprehensive at purchasing a bra on line, but after reading all the great reviews, I decided to take a chance. I’m a 38C petite and I was fearful the bra was only for smaller sized or taller female. It took me 10 minutes to get use to the fit; I liked the bra so much, I purchased two more! I recommend this bra for medium to low impact activities, although I also use it as an everyday bra. (Personally, I need a more supportive bra for running.) By-the-way, it’s very cute on and modest enough to wear without a shirt at the gym!
Jan-Marie - 2009-03-21Love this Fit!
Moderate support, fantastic fit, love the colour. I bought 2 wish i had bought more they are so comfortable. They wash well.
Anonymous - 2009-02-25Best sports bra
Super comfortable, great support (even for running)
Krista - 2009-02-15Comfortable Support for Medium/Low Impact Activities
I love the look of this bra and it is super comfortable, but even in an extra small (I'm a 32A) it doesn't really offer enough support for running. Great for biking, strength training, and other lower impact forms of cardio though!
Alicia - 2008-10-08ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE MESH BRA!!!!
I started buying these just recently because I hated feeling constricted
(squished)wearing sports bras that are not meant for DD breasts. I wear these everywhere from the gym to everyday activities.They have great coverage!
Alicia H - 2008-09-30patagonia mesh bra
Love them!! I wear them everywhere because they are sooo comfortable. THANKS!!I definetly will be shopping with altrec again.
Anonymous - 2008-09-26Excellent Bra - Even Better Than I Anticipated
Patagonia always make excellent products and they are priced accordingly. So, it is wonderful to be able to buy almost any Patagonia product at a marked down price. The active mesh bra fits well, wicks very well, appearance is great, very well made. Outstanding product; highly recommend it!
Cheryl - 2008-09-14Great Sports Bra
Love the design of the bra, although I normally wear a small and these fit tight so I'm more comfortable in a Medium. The colors and pattern on the bra are cute too! More importantly, this bra holds you in good and sturdy.
Anonymous - 2008-09-09bombproof
These bras are great. I just bought 2 new ones to replace 2 I've been wearing for 3 years or more. They are very comfortable. Great for hiking, bicycling and everyday active comfort wear. Very versatile.
I did however modify the bra. I found that it would ride up a bit. I cut a small hole in the band in the back and fitted an inch elastic band and hand stitched it back up.It worked great and is still working in the older bras.I love the Patagonia quality. I have other Patagonia items that are well worth the money.
Susan - 2008-08-28Great item
There is no question that Patagonia is great. I was also very impressed with the price, I purchased the same item at a local store for a lot more (I also returned it the day after placing my order). Thanks for offering great products
at good prices.
Anonymous - 2008-08-27total comfort
the cool designs are wonderful, the fantastic support makes the Active Mesh Bra my favorite.
Anonymous - 2008-08-24Very happy with this bra
Very comfy, cool and good support for hiking and other low impact active pursuits. Would definately buy another.
Anonymous - 2008-08-18Great, functional sports bra
I've used other shelf bras before and I recently got a couple of these and they give much more support than the other brand I was using, whilst still being really comfortable. Looks better too! Using them for Aikido and hiking.
Susan Bellanti - 2008-08-18great fitting & comfortable.
It's very comfortable. The construction is great, no pinching and the material is breathable. I plan on buying more!
Lisa - 2008-08-15Attractive and supportive bra
I love these bras. They are very comfortable for exercise and every day use.
Anonymous - 2008-08-12nice bra for sports, hiking, travel
When you first put it on, it feels a bit tight -- but once you start running, you only feel grateful! This bra is super substantial -- even the white is thick enough to wear on its own. And the wicking/cooling properties are a must-have in Houston.
Anonymous - 2008-06-24It's a keeper!
I've never bought Patagonia gear before so I was unsure of the fit. After biking for a few hours and going down a natural water slide a couple of times for fun, the bra was bone dry by the time I got the car! I should also mention that it's extremely comfortable too. A great investment for any woman who is on the move.
rngnanny - 2008-03-07great bra
my daughter and i both love this bra! she liked it so much i bought her two of them. the bra is very comfortable and has good support. i run in mine and it works great. i'd recommend it to everyone.
Tara - 2007-12-04Perfect running top
Great design - both in terms of comfort and style. Dries quickly and gives good support on long runs. I also use it for yoga and cycling, so it's a good all-around sports bra/top. I'm an A/B cup, and it provides ample support for high-impact aerobic activity; however, I'm not sure how much support it would offer for larger women doing high-impact activities.
Sylvia - 2007-10-28great, fun bra
I love the colors and designs. They wash and dry well and are oh so comfortable.
I use the mesh bra for running and there is plenty of support (I am breastfeeding), and use the lighter active bra for everyday wear.
Anonymous - 2007-09-23Love patagonia sport tops
Comfortable enough to wear as just a top, yet supportive enough to wear for activities, yoga, etc. Nice pattern.
Amanda Coleman - 2007-09-17keeps me dry on long runs
I run outside everyday and this is the only sprts bra that keeps me dry and gives me great support. The narrow straps and the structire of the back are very comfortable. I would suggest this to women who run long distances and have problems soaking through other sports bras.
Anonymous - 2007-08-15Very comfortable
I use this bra alone when doing circuit workouts, or as an underlayer for runs. It wicks sweat wonderfully. I have even used it for tubing with a pair of shorts, when I forgot my bathing suit. Amazing and versatile bra!
Cheryl Hansen - 2007-07-23Great sport bra.
I am a huge Patagonia fan. The Patagonia Women's Active Mesh Bra is no exception to the many high quality technical pieces I have purchased in the past. Very comfortable, very supportive. Basically, I love it! Thanks for providing access to great Patagonia items!
debmonster - 2007-05-02Amazing Support and Style
This is the best "sports" bra I've ever tried. I already own 3 colors and use them for backpacking, cycling, dance class and softball. I wear size 36C and it provides plenty of support when running around the bases or performing crazy moves in the dance studio. It breathes very well, fits comfortably under my pack straps and looks very flattering!
Anonymous - 2007-03-20great bra!
This is just an all around great bra - I definitely recommend it. I'm a size 36B/C and got a M and it fits great. Wear it for running, basketball, volleyball - great support for all three activities. The only problem is the price, but that's usually what you have to pay for a great sports bra nowadays! I'm planning to get another!
Anonymous - 2007-01-03great bra all-around
Patagonia hit a home-run with this bra. I can only say how it fits the women in my household and that is super - perfect for petite slim A-B cups who are very active at the gym, rock-climbing, yoga, kick-boxing, etc. All the support is there, though I cannot say for sure how it would work for larger cup sizes (my guess is decent for all but the most jarring sports). Support is firm. Looks fantastic as sport top alone or even a swimsuit top. A favorite in our house!
chic girl - 2006-10-31Can't run without this
I'm a size B and this really holds very well. I don't feel like I'm wearing anything underneath my running top but at the same time there is plenty of support. I initially bought 2 of these but they are so good, I'm buying 2 more from altrec...
Perfect for running, perfect for lounging, perfect for anything really...
Monica - 2006-10-25Great support in a stylish bra
This is my favorite sports bra. Last season, they seem to run a bit smaller and I ordered size Large, which fit perfectly. This season, they are running bigger, so I had to exchange my first order and go with medium. Fits perfectly, I am a 36C. I run in them, and do step classes, they work well. If I am going on a strenious run or workin gout for more than an hour, I will usually wear a sports top with a thin shelf bra over it for added support. These bras are also stylish, so you can pull off wearing it by itself during a long hike, or for a dip in the pool or beach after a long run or walk. No seams too. Great combination of style, confort, and support.
Anonymous - 2006-08-27Great Bra!
Perfect for all sports except for me it doesn't give enough support for running. It looks great alone as well for swimming.
Cora - 2006-08-15Awesome, Play Hard Bra
Excellent support for running and other jarring, gyrating sports. Breathable, excellent wicking as long as you keep your gear clean. No chaffing. I have not worn it underneath other clothing. Will be interested to see how the bra hold up in the long run.
Anonymous - 2006-08-13Excellent sports bra
Excellent. Love it, but
a little expensive.
jbt - 2006-06-19Capilene Mesh Bra review.
I like it but very costly. It is comfortable and does its claim.
Lisa - 2006-04-05LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!
I love this so much...I am buying more!! It is comfortable right away no rubbing or chafing issues at all! It has GREAT coverage and I plan on wearing it alone without a top in the hot summer days!
Anonymous - 2009-10-01Pretty design, but small fit
I love the color, design, fabric, and straps, but the fit was a bit tight. I'm a 36A and found the Small a bit too constricting, although a Medium might be too big for me.
Anonymous - 2009-08-07pretty but not for me
This is a very pretty, soft bra, but (size small) it's too big around (I'm 32 around) and too small in front (I'm a D or DD)and without adjustable straps I can't make it work. As much as I wanted it to work for yoga, it just isn't for me.
Anonymous - 2009-06-25great everyday bra
I wanted a comfortable bra for wearing around daily, not for exercise. As I wear a 34DD, it's hard to find sports bras that fit well. This one does okay. I ordered the large and it fits, but without enough support to exercise in--which I did not expect so I was not disappointed. If you wear a D cup or larger and want an exercise bra, however, this would probably not be it.
Anonymous - 2008-08-05Great sports bra, very comfortable.
Feels a bit small at first, but stretches easily. Good coverage, and lack of seams make movement easy and smooth.
Kathy Evans - 2008-02-22active mesh bra
love the styling and fabric.I got 3!! only problem is sizing. I am a34A-B so figured the xs or possibly small... based on the sizing chart and I wear the xs hotline top, but the small was too tight under/around armpits..so I am exchanging for a medium which based on the size chart puts my chest at36-37... cause otherwise I really like this bra..so we wil see what happens.
Anonymous - 2006-08-18Tight, tight, tight. But perhaps resized since I bought it.
Great material, nice design with good strap placement, full coverage (if that's what you want), but it is too tight and digs just under the arm. I'm petite, but somehow the small just feels too small! Can take a beating: almost wish it would lose some of its stretch . . . I like it enough though that I'm looking for another patagonia capilene bra in a better cut for me.
Anonymous - 2008-06-12Stylish and comfortable but lacking in performance
This is a comfortable and good looking sports bra, but I found that it was not supportive enough for trail running. Also, although it wicks fairly well under light exersion, when put to the test under extreme heat and performance conditions, it did not do as well as others in this category.
Karen - 2006-07-28Cut too high under the arms
I love the fabric but the cut is very uncomfortable. The arm openings go up too high into the underarm area and instantly chafe. I am actually better off wearing this thing backwards, since at least the back is cut in far enough.
