Use your size in four easy steps
- Start with your US size Pick the band and cup that already fit—the numbers carry straight across.
- Check Canadian product pages Most Canadian retailers display US/CA sizing side by side—use the table to confirm.
- Use sister sizes as usual Need a tighter or looser band? The same sister-size logic applies in Canada.
