Each size is tested on both employees and customers to ensure it fits as many women as possible.If bra shopping feels like a modern-day "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" ' one cup is too big, while the other is too small ' ThirdLove's signature half-cup sizes will help you find that "just right" fit."All of this data revealed traditional bra sizing wasn't serving women whose breast sizes or shapes weren't 'standard,' whatever that means," Zak told Business Insider. "We've found that 40% of our bras sold in the A-E range are half-cup sizes."ThirdLove spent two years dissecting and perfecting every part of the bra ' and it paid off. Each bra boasts soft memory foam padding, supportive ' and surprisingly flexible' nylon-coated, nickel-free underwire, and a padded hook-and-eye placket that keeps the bra comfortable all day long.Before trying ThirdLove, I was skeptical. "It's a bra," I thought to myself. "How comfortable can itbe'"But now, I'm completely sold. ThirdLove's 24/7 classic T-shirt brais so comfortable and fits so well that I've accidentally fallen asleep with iton and didn't realize it until I was getting dressed the next day. ThirdLove has exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds, and I want to replace all my braswith ThirdLove's selection.ThirdLove's bra sizes currently range from AA to G and all of the styles are available for less than$100. But even if ThirdLove doubled its prices overnight, I'd still recommend the company with as much gusto.You can check outall of ThirdLove's bras here.SEE ALSO:This is the work bag professional women everywhere have been looking forDON'T MISS:Millennials' favorite place to buy clothes online is Amazon ' here's why that shouldn't surprise youJoin the conversation about this story
