Didn't fit
First of, I got this bra from another user, and I am very grateful.
Now, on to the fit.
The band is the firmest 28 I've ever tried, which is fantastic for me, since I usually would need a 26 band (26.5-27 inch ribcage) and this feels like what that size would be. I can breathe easily and put several fingers underneath, and it is firmly in place, which is a first for me, especially with the cups (mostly) fitting. I have to agree with another reviewer who stated that a true 28 band would need to size up, since this band fits me and my ribcage is more of a 26 band.
The straps are very comfortable, and don't feel like they're going to fall off my shoulders, which is also fantastic, since I have tiny shoulders.
The cups are my only issue. The depth seems good, although it does come up quite high as a sports bra usually would, so it's hard to gauge whether or not that means a whole lot. Ordinarily I would be a 26HH or J, and they seem to fit alright into it, though the center part (I suppose it's the gore, although this model has no wires, and I've only ever had under wired bras before, so I'm just guessing) doesn't tack due to center fullness. The cups are also a bit wide, and seem made for someone shallower than me, as there isn't enough lower projection and the cups wrinkle a bit at the bottom due to this. I am also fairly high set, and this bra would probably work best for someone with average set breasts. The shape is also quite retro and pointy, very east-west on me, but some of that is due to the shape of my breasts not quite being right for this bra. However, I have worn it all morning running(hobbling, really, because I can't run anymore) around the house, making soup for my sick husband, and it will probably be great for indoor/house activities where I don't really care about how my chest looks, and just want to be well supported and comfortable.
Overall, the band runs snug for anyone looking into this bra, and the cups are a bit wide and shallow compared to my shape, but it is very comfortable and easy to move around in. Despite the gore issue, it seems to keep my breasts from knocking into each other, which is good. =^__^=
