Arc'teryx gave the Women's Operative Crossback Top a long cut to fit well when tucked into a climbing harness and a shelf bra for excellent support as you take on a hard pitch. Wide shoulder straps make the Operative Crossback Top comfortable to wear when you sling a rack of gear over you shoulder and cast off for a multi-pitch trad climb. You could wear this Arc'teryx tank top to a party or something as well, but wouldn't you rather be climbing?
Bottom Line: Get on the rock and the Arc'teryx Operative Crossback Top keeps you comfortable and supported.
This top will strangle your lats if you are a 34 or or more in the bust. It's not an issue of breast size per se because the shelf is large enough to accommodate a large c. I tried a small and medium, and the shelf bra band was the same size in both, which for the sizes was way too small, or the elastic does not stretch enough. So unfortunate because this is a beautiful top.
I don't know why I am the only one that doesn't really like this top, but I found the cut really bizarre. I am 5'10" 140lbs and this was long and baggy in strange places (like the arm pits). The built-in bra was not supportive at ALL and kind of pushed my boobs down--not attractive. I saw pictures of myself in this top over the summer and realized this much too late. Not for tall girls I guess. (oh and I got a medium)
What does the Orchid color actually look like in reality? I like this version of the color, but I've seen it on other websites where the color is less muted and way more green and bright.

I love this tank top. It fits well, especially under the arms where sometimes other brands (Prana, especially) really cut into me. Nice fabric and I feel comfortable with the shelf bra, which sometimes are more of a pain in the butt than anything.
I really like this top. it was true to size and has a very soft comfortable fabric that allows it to not chaff. I wear a 34D cup so I wouldn't say that it would be supportive enough to run in or anything.. but it is great for low impact stuff like yoga, weight lifting, rafting etc....

I absolutely love this shirt. I am usually hesitant about buying tank tops online but I was pleased with this purchase. It's super comfortable and fits great. It also seems pretty durable.
I liked the tank and agree with most of the other reviewers. However, I'm 5 '2'' and ordered a small.. I had to return it b/c it was very, very long on me. I agree it would be better for casual wear/exercise as opposed to something more intense (since it's cotton). Definitely nice quality.
I wear this to the gym and it's freaking comfortable. The cross back lets you move your arms around like ninja without straps getting in your way. I've had tons of people compliment it and it looks good for non-workout activities. It is cotton, so if you get really sweaty, your shirt will get sweaty, too. It's best for mild exercise.
