NOTE: Japanese cup letters are off by one from the rest of the world, so this is actually an EU 70E/Bratabase 32:5

I first tried to find ABTF some 8 years ago, and ended up donating all the underwired bras I owned because the gore sat on my close-set boobs and I got intense body dysphoria from the separation. I spent the intervening years with my boobs taken care of by my BFF, Shock Absorber. Then global warming hit and I realized I needed an actual regular bra to go with spaghetti strapped tops. A bunch of research later ("no gore" "goreless" "close set" etc), I discovered an introductory ... post on Japanese brands, and ordered some stuff from Aimerfeel, as they have an English-language webstore that ships to my country and do not break the bank.

On to this bra! It's a molded cup with loose stretch mesh laid atop it + a J-shaped lace side. The inner lining/cookie pocket is cotton. The wires are L-shaped, the cups are attached to each other, and the "gore" is just some fabric holding the cups together. The inner sides of my boobs have never been so happy in an underwire bra! The shape is somewhat rounded, not too separated, and I get some nice cleavage.

On the downside, the straps are just a little bit too short for me, and the wings are a touch too tall, so the sides cut into my tail of spence when I move my arms forward e.g. to type. (Straps a few cm longer would ameliorate this, I think.) Bearable for a while, but I'd want to get out of it after a whole workday wearing it.

...the cups feel so cozy, tho
