Luxtreme Singlet Comparison: Cadence Crusher Vs. Wild and Free

I was a huge fan of the luxtreme Wild and Free Tanks that came out in October - they're great for sweaty workouts - so I ordered the Cadence Crusher from last week's upload. Above is a side by side comparison of the two. They're fairly similar - luxtreme and mesh singlets - but there are a few fit differences. The Cadence Crusher (in Hero Blue) is lower in the armpits and the mesh panel scoops lower on the back. The mesh is a larger weave and not as soft as in the Wild and Free and it seems a bit more see-through than the other mesh. The neckline is rounder and a little higher on the Cadence Crusher, which is nice because the Wild and Free can be pretty revealing with a low cut bra.

Two difference kinds of mesh were used in the tanks.

The fit is similar on the two tanks - a roomy TTS. You should be able to size down if you want a more fitted tank. I liked the Cadence Crusher well enough but I am not in love with the Hero Blue color so I'll be returning it.

Thanks for this. I missed the wild and free tank but have been contemplating the cadence crusher tank. I will probably wait until it goes to WMTM...however long that may be.
