It's comfortable and lightweight and snug. I'm not a fan of nylon because it is a hot material in the summer months, which may be why this was made "thin" and "transparent" ---to possibly allow coolness for the consumer. I actually like that, especially if you plan on wearing a bra underneath it. That way, you can stay as cool as possible. I purchased it primarily because I like oversized clothing and some summer clothing of mine hangs in the spots under my arms where you can see a portion of my chest popping out and a little of my bra on the sides and who wants that ?? (smile)...so, this tube top covers up that sensitive area. It has zero support, so for those  that require more support, wear over a supportive bra.
