Less padding than Panache Sport Wireless. Yet, sufficient padding for nipple discretion and protection. The support is less than Panache Sport but adequate for my exercise. Personally, this will be a daily wear bra for me. If you need more support, Core 10 offers a "high" support version of this bra which I will review in a few days.

This model is nearly identical dimensionally to the Scoop Back style. The only difference I can determine is the crossing vs non-crossing straps. Although I didn't think this would result in a significant fit difference, it does. The crossing straps pull the cup sides up firmly. And, because this cup is designed for average bodies instead of petite bodies, it uncomfortably pulls into the upper-outer quadrant of my breast. Unfortunately, this is an all-too-common experience for my very short-waisted physique.

There are reports that this bra is "small." The band stretches 1" shorter than the listed band size. If you like firm support, order your band size. Because elastics degrade/stretch over time, I would add an extender rather than size up in the band. The cup, if based on US sizing, is typical. It fits like a Wacoal 32G. However, if the sizing is UK, the cups are one size small.

Additionally, because the cup edge is closed, this design suits short-roots much better than Panache Sport Wireless. The upper edge is doubled, stretch tulle that offers a bit of flexibility in regard to root height. However, I cannot recommend this Core 10 bra for full-on-top, tall roots: you will quad. To quote another customer, you will "look like an exploded can of biscuits." Panache Sport is a better option for full-on-top breasts.

The cross-back straps are adjustable along the full length. However, the adjusters are in the rear of the bra. Personally, I thoroughly prefer front-adjust straps. Additionally, I'm very short-waisted, and required the full strap length. The straps may reflect that the cup volume is too small. But, if I were tall and/or low-set, I would look for a different bra until the design is updated. Please note: the straps on Core 10 Scoop Back Medium Support Bra were not too short for me.

The straps are a limited stretch, plush, soft material. These feel lovely on my shoulders. Long-term, I'm uncertain how well they will wear. But, short-term, I'm smitten. They rival my favorite all-time strap from Wacoal-- Visual Effects Wireless Minimizer. These Core 10, 1" wide, thin, and unpadded straps are remarkably comfortable.

I like the materials and support of this bra enough that I ordered another size; hoping for a better fit.
