Top Is padded. Straps are adjustable. Metal clasp closure in back. I am more than happy to mix&match tops & bottoms as long as the sizes needed are in stock. Leave a comment before you buy on the sizes you need if you need mixed sizes. On Mixed sized orders I do not take offers :-( I will gladly consider offers on same size top and bottom orders. I also carry this suit in 7 other colors. Small = 2/4 US Medium = 4/6 US Large= 6/8 X-Large 10/12
