Hi y'all I was just wondering if any of you lovely ladies has purchased a spider top from bad kitty from pole fit I love their fold over shorts. I have a big busy but the Mika yoga wear Tula top has worked even though it looks like little clothing on top. Any comments will help.

Sorry not xpole bad kitty pole fitness
Whatever you do, do not dry it in the machine. Let it air dry! I got one and it went though the dryer and shrunk. Then after that I would be recording and invert and up the top went. Poor little boobies couldn't hold it down! And of course, the video was of no use to me ;o)

Wow that's great to know thanks. Sorry about the loss of the video lol

It runs really small --I'd recommend getting a size up, especially if you are busty. I'm usually an XS on top and my XS spider back top digs into my skin really bad and rides up in the front!
I love the way the Spider Top looks, but it does tend to ride up. Throughout an entire routine I was constantly pulling it down (so attractive!). I agree with PoleFitMom with air drying!
It is very cute, but it rides up. I wear a 32D and had to get a medium.

Thanks to all for the response, good to know not to stick it in the dry machine. Look forward to ordering one soon :)
Spider top is my favorite, but a lot of ladies have issues with it. It can really really ride up, especially if you get a size that's a little too small or if it shrinks at all. I've not had any issues drying mine in the dryer (on low!) But, if I do a lot of backbends or moves where I really extend, it does ride up. I'd never wear it alone for a routine or video. All of Bad Kitty's stuff runs crazy small, it seems.
Out of the 5 Pole Fit Wear tops I own I like the spider the least. Maybe it rides up on girls with little to no boobies?! I have the bondage top (love it, except when I am working out laying on my back - the rings dig into my spine) the V Front (LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!) the Fishnet Cami (great support, no issues) and the Iron X Top (def my favorite!)

I've been thinking of getting one too, so this thread has made me remember to ask - what if you're a 34 or 36B/C? Mostly B lol. I would normally get a medium in T shirts, etc. But you want a bra/sports top to fit tightly.... but you guys all say this runs to small.... so should I get a small or medium?! Also - how much actual support do you get from it? I only want it for pole, I'll keep my sports bras for running etc, but I still would like a bit of support from my polewear.....
I bought the spider and bondage tops a while ago. I like the bondage top better by a long shot. Spider back runs really small. The style of the back, while visually pretty, just pulls the entire bra up and provides no real support bc there is no band to anchor the bra. I kind of wish I hadn't spent the money on it because I never wear it. I think I've worn it once.
I got a medium spider top, I am a 34 C. I love the top but agree with all above comments, it rides up so you're constantly pulling it down -annoying, the ring digs in your back when laid down, the straps dig into my shoulders. Overall dissapointing, I still wear it but mainly because its pretty and my bf bought it me for Xmas. Functionality wise it's rubbish :-(
These are my least favorite of the line. I too am small chested though and agree that is probably part of it. My fav is the iron x. Followed by princess, bondage, v front and spider. That is the only one I wouldn't buy again...

I am noticing more that the sizes do run small, it's kind if disappointing.

The Spider back rides up on everyone!! I had it on tonight. I wish they would re design it with adjustable straps!!!!

I'm a 32D and got a large as heard they run small, so it's now a little bit too loose around the bottom- and rides up constantly! I thought it was because I'd got one a bit too big, but from reading this, it seems to be what that style does! Altho it looks lovely, I never really wear it as, like previous comments, it provides no support and drives me nuts riding up :-(
Hazelnut ·
Right, ok you've all convinced me it'd be a total waste of money! I can't be dealing with tops slipping around everywhere... I'll have a look at their website again and maybe get the bondage one then. Thanks guys!!
Rides up, even on small chest size. Also weird seem on front looks like nipples on me. Lol. Students said metal circle was uncomfortable for back floorwork. Bondage top will be a way better choice ;)
I think it depends on the person and chest size. I have several of the spider back top in large (36 d) have dried it under normal settings and have had no issues with it shrinking or riding up at all.

Iam normally a small in sports bras i tried a small and a medium in the spider back and both rode up leaving my boobs poking out the bottom :-( but i have the bondage top which is great but watch out for the rings down the back when doing allegra or floorwork! owch!

My spider top is still wearable (I'm a 32A/B and have an XS), it's just really tight. It's never exposed anything, just rides up funny. I still like the top and wear it often, I just wish it wasn't so freaking constricting. The Iron X top is super comfortable and awesome though! Def one of my fave pole bras! It doesn't run as small as the spider back (I bought a S and it's roomy on me).

Had the exact same thing happen to me in the small. Figured it was too small so I got a medium, same thing. It's super cute just not super practical for inverts
I forgot that I also have the iron X top in addition to bondage top and spider back. I love that one, too! I am about a 32d-ish, if that helps for size comparison. I did see someone layer the spiderback top with the pole fit monokini once, and it did look really cool. so maybe as a layering piece it wouldn't be so bad. I just dont like how tight it is with straps and how little support there is. Has anyone tried the princess pole fit top? I love the front, not sure about the back... might be ok if all in black.
