Didn't fit
I had heard that this was the holy grail of sports bras. I had high hopes.
Good news: This is worlds better than my Walmart S-M-L compression/shelf sports bras.
Bad news: Holy grail it is not.
Good news: The band is nice and firm, just a smidge tighter than my other Panache bras in the same size. Exactly what I'd want and expect in a sports bra.
Bad news: Wires are too narrow. Top of the cup has some empty space, room for bouncing. Very top edge of the cup cuts into breast tissue (though my root is tall/higher set, and not everyone will have this issue).
Good news: The silicone-wrap plus fabric-sewn-thing of these underwires mean that even though they're too narrow, they do not poke.
Bad news: The narrower underwires and empty space means that I don't get the anchorage, support, and motion control that I'd ideally like.
Good news: Straps are long enough.
Bad news: Straps are not long enough for my 5'8" self to use the racerback feature, which might have alleviated some of the residual boob bounce.
Bottom line? I will keep it for lower impact activities like yoga and hiking. However, I will need to find something more suitable for running.
