Learn how to choose the right size and wear the HAMADE long-sleeve scoop neck top for pole dance, with practical steps for grip, layering, and care.
Quick answer
Choose your usual top size for a close, stretchy fit, then test shoulder mobility and grip before your first full pole session. Wear the HAMADE Top Scoop Neck Noir/Blanc as a standalone top or pair it with the matching high-waisted bottom to turn it into a body.
Why long sleeves change your pole warm-up
Long sleeves reduce skin contact with the pole, which can affect grip and make spins feel different. Before committing to a full session, warm up with basic pole holds and low spins to see how the fabric behaves on your skin and on the pole surface.
The stretch fabric and removable cups in the HAMADE top are designed for movement, but sleeve length adds coverage that may feel warmer during intense training. If you overheat easily, save this top for slower flow work or cooler studio sessions.
Sizing trade-offs: snug vs. comfortable
A snug fit keeps the top in place during inversions and reduces fabric bunching, but it can restrict shoulder rotation if you size down too far. The HAMADE top has stretch, so it will give slightly, but the scoop neckline and long sleeves should still lie flat without pulling across the chest.
If you are between sizes, consider how you plan to use the top: choose the smaller size for dynamic pole work where you want minimal movement, or the larger size for floor work and everyday wear. Check the size chart and remember that removable cups can affect how the bust area fits.
How to fit and wear your HAMADE long-sleeve pole top
- Measure and compare to the size chart: Take your bust and waist measurements and compare them to the HAMADE size chart. If you fall between sizes, choose based on desired compression: smaller for a locked-in feel, larger for easier layering. Write down your measurements before ordering so you can re-check fit when the top arrives.
- Try it on with the cups you plan to use: Insert or remove the removable cups before trying the top on, because they change the bust fit. Raise your arms and rotate your shoulders to check that the scoop neck stays flat and the sleeves don't twist. If the neckline gapes when you lift your arms, try a smaller size or adjust the cup placement.
- Test grip and mobility on the pole: Do a few low spins and a basic climb to see how the long sleeves affect your grip. If you feel too slippery, you can push the sleeves up slightly or use a grip aid on your hands only. Never apply grip products directly to the fabric; test on your skin first.
- Decide on layering or body conversion: Wear the top alone with pole shorts, or pair it with the matching 'Neck ring high waisted' bottom to create a body. Check that the waistband sits comfortably and doesn't roll during movement. If you convert it to a body, do a full range of motion test before class.
- Care for the fabric after each session: Hand wash in cold water with similar colors, do not bleach, do not iron, and hang to dry. Avoid wringing or tumble drying to protect the stretch and cups. Turn the top inside out and close any fastenings before washing to reduce pilling.
