Didn't fit
I got this at Marshall's for $13 with a tag on it saying "$60 if perfect". It looks "perfect" to me except for a tiny jewelry sang on the front of one of the cups, so I don't know if that's what they were talking about, or if there is some wild manufacturing defect I'm unaware of. That's the caveat.
The actual center of this garment is 6" tall, but I marked 3.75" as that is the height of the wires in the center gore, as I could never comfortably wear a 6" gore.
Everything about this bra is great except for cup depth. I'm not really clear as to why manufacturers believe a breast is smaller while exercising than while sedentary. A 34G in customary use wacoal bras has a 12.5" cup depth. This is approximately a 25% decrease in mass in a sports bra. My boobs just aren't that spongy, hence the b cups I'm quadraboobing out the top of this thing. If my boobs were that spongy, I'd squish them into a smaller size at all times.
I need 6" wide wires and these are 7, but since the cups are so shallow, the overhang can't stab into my armpits anyway, so no harm, no foul.
