I decided I needed a green bra in my life and the Mint Sorbet looked so tempting on the website that I ordered it together with the Comexim Basic (170) and Comexim Jennifer. The actual colour was actually a duller green than what I expected. With the name "Mint", I was kinda expecting a fresher, more pastel colour (like peppermint ice cream!) But the colour grew on me somewhat and now I live purely in Comexims!
The size is perfect on me, and I'm so glad I lucked out on the first try! As per Bratabase advice, I went with my usual band size and ... used the Comexim size chart only for the bust measurement, which brought me to 60H. For reference's sake, I usually wear a 28F in most UK brands.
The band is tighter than Freya's (I find Freya's bands a little loose for me). I loooove how the band sits nice and low on my back all day long but did not feel unnecessarily tight. What is this sorcery? With my Cury Kates, I feel the tightness of my bands all day along, and even then, sometimes they threaten to ride up!
The straps are closer together than the other UK brands I've tried (that tend to dig into my underarms and leave dark marks that don't go away). They are also fully adjustable, soft, and stretchy. All in all, the comfort of the straps is amazing.
I must admit the feel of this bra isn't as luxurious as the UK bras I own. But with a so much better fit, I would definitely buy more of Comexim's bras! I just hope they would come up with more designs, and more styles like the strapless, wireless, etc. The cost of this bra is on par, if not a bit cheaper than UK brands, as the shipping is so much more cost effective, with tracking to boot!
