I took the pads out of the cups of my wife's two suits yesterday. When she tried on the green one today she noticed...her nipples poking out from the material. I told her not to worry about it. She grinned and went along. She didn't go in the water today because the temps dropped with a front so maybe we'll try tomorrow. I told her be thankful I didn't remove all the material so it was just one thin piece of fabric.
I do plan on doing that to her older suits that she says don't fit her anymore.
