This brand *changed my life* and I wish that I had discovered them years ago. Sadly, since I was taking bra-buying advice from the A Bra That fits forum on reddit (which is run by a marketing corporation; they are paid to promote a few sponsored brands only, and unfairly criticize the rest. sometimes the brands change, but they usually try to push one brand of sports bra for people in my size range, sometimes two.) Their sponsored brands do not work for me -- looking at you Panache wired sports bra -- and are absolute fit disasters. And that's after trying 3 different sizes.

Water under the bridge now, but I absolutely would have appreciated the knowledge that the forum is run by digital marketers that are paid to plug a few different brands only, not to give objective bra-buying advice. But nobody told me.

WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS BRA: Even though it took me like 3 years to find this (to be fair, I had ordered it a long time ago - through Breakout Bras sale prices, would highly recommend them - but then I had both weight gain, then weight loss), finally victory is mine! It was easier for me to find an amazing everyday bra that fit (Comexim, Ewa Michalak, Kris Line, et. all...basically all the Polish brands) vs. a sports bra. for some reason. when I finally did find a sports bra that fit, I feel like I need to give a thank you speech like Cuba Gooding, Jr. at the 1997 Oscar Awards https://youtu.be/cnCMqr1QRQw?si=9033VStyh-uJnPn1 IYKYK!

-very easy to put on/take off compared to some sports bras which fasten in the back
-I love the quality
- some people think that it looks boring, but I really like the aesthetics.
-love the fabric, it's soft and smooth against my skin. despite having sensitive skin, I don't notice irritation with Enell
- most importantly, IT WORKS. It's one of the few sports bras that work for me for high impact. aka, running. (note: I also found success with my Syrokan sports bra that I bought years ago. It works for me, but it's I find it difficult to put on- it's like a two-person project to get it fastened in the back- and it also can be difficult to take off when your hot & sweaty. If you don't mind those things, Syrokan is less expensive, but since I discovered Enell, they are my ride-or-die sports bra).

If you are in their size range, Enell is worth checking out. (wait, now I sound like an online sales shill!) they advertise C+ sports bras. Fun fact I learned about Enell: they were created by a hairdresser in MT.

I also have their Lite Sports bra for low-impact sports https://www.bratabase.com/bra/dnlbe/ and I like that one as well.

Hope Pink colorway

  This looks very promising! I still bounce a lot in my sports bra.
  What size are you?
  Do you think a size 0 would work on me? My underbust is 27, and bust is 37. I wear a 28H or 30GG. I think I'm one band size smaller than you.

• Milotic Enell has its own calculator: https://enell.com/pages/find-your-fit (The bra size to Enell size chart assumes +4 sizing and is bullshit, but the actual chart for underbust to Enell size is fine.) IME as a 32DD, the size 1 was the right size for my ribcage but way too large for my boobs, and size 0 the right for my boobs but too tight around the ribcage. Based on your measurements, 0 should be the size to try.

• I'll try it in a size 0. They have that size on sale on that website, and the website says free returns on all orders (hoping that includes sale items).

• Milotic , hmm size 0 might work for you. My underbust is 28" if it's really tight, 29" is more comfortable and where I would normally wear a bra (moderately tight, but not super tight). With Enell, I find that the band doesn't need to be super tight, the support is from the squishing of my breasts.

  I measure about 30FF UK sizes, 65G in Ewa Michalak, 70HH in Comexim padded plunges.

  Congrats on this bra win! I think it looks very pretty with the soft pink colour and the satin fabric! I tried Enell back in the day, in 2013 it was quite popular then on bratabase. Since I was a 30K at that time I could not make it work properly. (2 - Enell » Sports (100) ) Too bad I sold it, it would probably fit me now. Ah well...
