I wanted to wear this a bit before I wrote review.
For reference my UK size is about 34J/JJ. I have short, narrow roots, low set. very projected needing immediate projection.
I've not worked out in it but I wore it while painting a room in the house https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" /> For reference, I've never had a sports bra and the only one I've tried before is Bravissimo Apollo which was the opposite of this one.
It's still a bit bouncy like when I walk but it's not really a bother for me, I don't do intense work outs anyway. I think just wearing like a ... compression tank top over it would stop that if that's a concern for anyone else.
SO! The wires are really narrow! they're almost too narrow for me but they're juuuust there. The band fits me perfectly, I don't need an extender. The straps are half adjustable but long enough for me and I am 175 cm tall. They have those metal/plastic rings on them where the straps meet in the middle, which is a little annoying depending, and the straps are a little wide on the back, they could be moved in at least an inch maybe.
It's really really comfortable, the wire on one side is a little wonky and can rub my arm when I move my arm there but I'm going to bend it to fix that. I think it's a construction error possibly, the wire channel on the left side doesn't allow this, idk. but when I wear it I don't really notice it at all so it's fine. You can see it in the 2nd picture even.
The gore tacks! it's a medium height gore, it's a bit hard to see it because it's like double or triple layer fabric in there, and there's like a workout mesh on the inside, I'll attach a picture of it.
The cups have padding on the outside? It's a little strange but okay, doesn't really matter. feels like wearing an armored vest hehe.
The fit is sick, tbh. This has such a front and center push, more than any other of my bras. There is NO squishing the boobs back into your armpits here, it's all being forwarded and really center, I get cleavage in this actually, and it's amazing to not have your chest in the way for your arms etc.
Overall it's super comfortable and really good fit for me. if you need narrow wires and don't want to be squished into your sports bra, definitely try this!
I realize it's probably hard to find it. I got it from their own website but I think they only ship to european countries. But if you can find it I definitely recommend.

that's so cool - I actually looked into this bra a few weeks ago. I'm in Canada though, so they don't ship here! I'm on a quest for a sportsbra...
