Didn't fit
I had very high hopes for this bra given all of the hype about it. I was lucky enough to try it on at a store in a 30F (which didn't fit). The saleswomen assured me that one cup size down would be enough, but alas, it was not quite. I should have ordered a 28E instead of a 30E.
Pros: This is the most comfortable bra I have probably ever worn: the straps don't dig in, the underwires rest nicely against my sternum without poking, and the band is SO soft. There is no monoboob or east-west look with this bra. I get a front and center, separated, perky shape in this bra. Also, the straps are close set, so it isn't necessary to hook them in the back to get them to stay up!
Cons: I would say the cups and band run large. So unless you are a very full __, order down a cup and band size (you can always pick up a band extender from WalMart - way easier than taking in the band!) So, a 32DD would order a 30DD or 32D. The straps have some stretch, which is not something I like in a sports bra, especially since they are already too long when tightened all they way. The wires are such that you cannot bend them differently - they are not stiff enough to hold the new shape. Finally, after wearing it for a while, it feels as though the bra is pushing down on the top of my breasts instead of supporting me from beneath.
Even though it isn't suitable for high-impact, it is great for days when I will be moving around/sweating a lot. (I would say it is medium impact.) Also, it gives me a great shape and profile beneath my event t-shirts (those shapeless, baggy, unisex shirts that you get, usually for free, for attending events).
