This bra is the second Freya longline I've owned. I do like this cut and fit of these longlines, which is why I have them in a few different models.
My absolute favourite thing about the longline style are the wide wings at the back. Most of my 2-3 hook bras do not do a satisfactory job of spreading out the load. As a result, this bra in a 30 band does not ride up as badly despite the band being too loose on me. I do like that it doesn't need to be super snug to feel comfortably secure. I don't mind sometimes jumping +2 or even +4, ... but if you are used to wearing your best band size, do stick with it as the wider wings probably won't compensate for +2.
The straps are stretchy and smooth. I never have trouble with strap placement on Freya bras. My shoulders feel absolutely relaxed even while sitting at my desk for several hours. Shoulder pain due to mousing is a different story though https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" />
The only con about this bra, as has been mentioned by everyone else, is that the front of the band will fold up no matter how you try to adjust it. For me, I'm wearing it under a loose fitting blouse so that does not affect the appearance under clothing.
