Do these run true to size?
Yes, these run true to size. CXIX pole wear is designed with a compressive, close-to-skin fit that activates the Gecko Grip™ fabric. If you prefer a more relaxed fit or are between sizes, size up.
How does this perform during pole training?
The fabric moves securely with the body through overhead and aerial work. The construction stays in place during pole training and performances, with no need for adjustment between moves.
What should I know before wearing the Nyx Top: Dragon for the first time?
Wash before the first wear to remove any production residue and soften the fabric. The compressive fit will loosen slightly with the first few wears and settle into a secure training fit. Rinse in cold water after each session and air dry flat to preserve the fabric and shape.
What is this made from and how do I care for it?
Made from 73% Polyester + 27% Spandex. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash in cold water. Do not tumble dry. Air dry flat. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat, which break down the elasticity of the fabric over time. With cold-wash care the construction holds its shape and compression through regular training and performance use.
What do customers say about this style?
Customers highlight the secure fit and the construction quality as the main positives. The style is noted as staying in place through dynamic pole training and performance. Most find the sizing true to size and the fabric comfortable for extended studio sessions.
What should I pair the Nyx Top: Dragon with?
The Nyx Top: Dragon pairs with the CXIX Nyx Bottoms: Dragon for a matching Dragon training set. the CXIX Gecko Grip™ Leggings: Black Mamba and the CXIX Gecko Grip™ Leggings: Black Waistband Grip also make strong Gecko Grip™ pairings. Add the CXIX Velcro Knee Pads and Pole Freaks Clear Liquid Chalk (available in the Pole Accessories collection at Shoefreaks) to complete the training kit.
