Basewear is a sports bra... and it's a bathing suit! It's the most comfortable top you've ever worn, and it's the only top you need to pack. Designed by women, for anyone who wears a bra Basewear is designed to work with your muscles, not against them. Say goodbye to uncomfortable straps that dig in, and pinched lats that spill out. Basewear never restricts your muscle movement. We've been told it feels like you've got nothing on, and most our customers donate out all their old sports bras and underwear to replace them with basewear tops! 

At Têra Kaia our approach to sizing is a little different. We're redefining the way we fit modern bodies. This means you can shop between different cuts depending on how much coverage you prefer. We have a handy bra size to basewear size conversion calculator on our Size Chart Page. If you're still not sure what cut will suit you best check out our Basewear Size Guide to measure your exact fit. STILL not sure?? Just order your best guess. Exchanges are free and easy!

With our limited stock, it may be possible an item is out of stock when you place your order. Because of how tricky it is for us to restock certain colors, we recommend choosing from what is available rather than waiting for a particular color to come back. You may be waiting a while!

On certain Wednesdays we do Micro Restocks! Follow us on Instagram or via our Email Newsletter to be the first to find out when restocks are coming up.

Your basewear is designed to be washed infrequently. We recommend rinsing after use in chlorine or salt water. Machine or hand wash your basewear without fabric softeners or bleach. Bonus points if you wash it in a GuppyFriend Micro Plastic wash bag to keep any shluffed plastic out of the water stream. We recommend you lay your basewear flat to dry, however it will survive in the dryer (we've tried). Due to its anti-microbial properties, basewear doesn’t need to be washed at every wear. So go ahead, and wear it for two weeks straight - we won't tell!

We definitely recommend trying Basewear on for yourself! Visit our base camp in the Eastern Sierra: Têra Kaia Bishop. We are open for basewear fittings and in-store shopping. Visit TK Bishop Follow TK Bishop on Instagram: @terakaiabishop.

Yes! Our Basewear Repair Program is designed to give your item a new life, and keep it out of a landfill. Simple repairs or full repairs are available here at our Basewear Service page. Once received our team will inspect your garment to see if it is repairable. If not we can issue you a $15 credit for a future order and scrap it for parts. Woo!

We got started back in 2016 because we were tired of sports bras that didn't fit and quickly fell apart. So, we got together and made a bunch of prototypes of something better... Basewear! Now we still use the same design process to perfect everything to fit perfectly and perform on any adventure.

Arêt Basewear is still here! (Hint: It's us, just with a new name.) As of April 2019 our name became Têra Kaia. Now our brand is positioned for future growth, with the same products and principles we started Arêt Basewear back in 2016.

Give it a few days. The USPS sometimes jumps the gun a bit on marking a package as delivered. If your package still doesn't turn up it means it was either lost in the postal system, or stolen from your doorstep. If you believe this to be the case, the next step is to contact your local post office and file a lost package report. Send us the report and we'll get you a replacement.
