This bra is a bit of a mixed bag. The material of the band is very comfortable, and the "light lift" padding is great -- very comfortable, gives nice shaping without adding noticeable bulk. It seems like it should be perfect. Unfortunately, some minor details about the construction cause it not to live up to its promise (at least for me). The underwire curves down too far below the rest of the band, and starts to dig into the ribs after a little while, to the point where I find myself adjusting the bra throughout the day without ever getting comfortable. The straps are also a little too ... narrow for optimal comfort; but, worse than the width, is the fact that there is not enough friction between the adjusting slide and the strap material, so the strap loosens and elongates throughout the day, and starts slipping off my shoulders after several hours of wear. The adjusting slide is located at the back, so it is impossible to re-adjust the strap without removing the bra. I still keep this bra in rotation, but I don't reach for it often.
