The Tisha lives up to its hype. It has pretty much everything a t-shirt bra should have: great fit, smooth fabric, basic colors, and foam lining for modesty. It gets uncomfortable and itchy around the back after long term wear, and the foam lining is on the stiff side, so the bra feels very structured. On the other hand, it is very supportive and definitely does its job well.
Purchased early 2010 from Breakout Bras.

This one was a miss for me, I need an extender as the band is TINY and tight enough if I don’t use the extender I’m warping the wires, and bulging out in all sorts of places. First and foremost I say sister size up if your going to buy this bra.
So the rest of this review is WITH an extender. I’m not sure why but the wires, gore side, hurt. They dig in so bad, and while I suspect I would benifit from touching or even overlapping wires, I haven’t had this problem this badly before. When I first put this on and do a ... proper scoop I quad ever so slightly and get some minimal outer side emptiness in the cups, but once I move around my breasts settle in filling the empty area and quading goes away, so not perfect shape wise but my breast is squishy enough to settle in. Straps are good for me, comfort is great other than painful gore (not uncomfortable, PAINFUL it leaves bruises if worn for 12 hours).
Edit/update* while trying to find reasons for fit issues with another bra I ran into a few blogs/forum post about scooping from center, didn’t really think I had the target boobs for this advice was me but decided couldn’t hurt to try, it worked! Wore this bra Saturday all day it caused no pain, and the slight emptiness I had was gone.

Band is very comfy but major quad boob. Order shows it was a 30E but label shows its 30DD (was the size selected for me when I selected "30E" through herroom)

This is a rather plain t shirt bra but one that gets pretty good reviews so I thought I'd try again. The 30D's cups were too small, so I ordered one size up. This bra must really run small because I still got a little quad boob, especially towards the center. The straps were too far apart for my frame so going up again in cup size is not an option.

Looks fabulous under just about everything. Straps never slip. and nothing pops out. Not the most glamorous undergarment you'll own, but it's a fantastic utilitarian t-shirt bra. Wears well, no puckering and very little stretch. It will feel tight for the first few wearings, but it breaks in.

The band fits much more like a 28 than a 30. It does not show in t-shirts and offers very flattering shape. The thick straps offer nice support, but are very visible in tank tops or wide necklines. It is very comfortable if you are out and about but the gore tends to dig in a little bit if I'm lounging around... I think that is due to my usually poor posture and my small frame just leans right into the under-wire where it meets the gore. The color is perfect for wearing white clothing.
However, the lip of the cups dig in to the tops of my breasts, ... so I'm wondering if it is ill fitting or if the cups run small, or if the shape doesn't work well on my body type.
I question that because my boobs are fullest at the bottom and sides and not so much at the top.
The only other complaint I have about this bra is that is not very attractive, and is a bra that I wear for practicality only... I do wish it offered a little more in terms of style because I don't feel very attractive wearing the bra alone, but with clothing it does offer a shape I find flattering so that's nice.

The smooth front of the bra looks nice under a shirt. The straps are thicker and taper towards the back, which I find comfortable. The band and cup size are both too big for me though. Will try a size down.

it pokes my ribcage at the tips of the wires.

I ordered the Tisha in both 30C and 30D. Most of my well-fitting bras are 30D, but I have a well-fitting Le Mystere bra in 30C.
I first tried on the 30D and it cut into the top of my breast tissue, textbook orange-in-a-glass effect (I have shallow boobs). The 30C still does that very very slightly, not enough for me to say it doesn't fit.
One oddity: even though I ordered the 30C and the 30D from the same web site, they appear to have been manufactured in different places. The 30D has the sizing information printed directly on the band behind the loops while the 30C has the sizing and care info printed on fabric labels sewn into the band.
