I got this bra NWT for $12 (including shipping) on ebay, but had I paid full price for it I think I would have been disappointed. It's essentially just an unfinished looking moulded bra covered by a piece of fabric.
I usually wear a 30D or 30DD so I had to sister size. The band runs a little small, mine stretches to 31" which seems just about perfect for running. I don't want to struggle to breathe. I feel like maybe I should have gone with the 32D instead, but going off of the limited info I could find in this size range I went with the 32C. I ... figured a bit of compression would be fine in a sports bra. I would like to try on a 32D at some point though.
I got this bra for running, but it's definitely better suited to other activities. It's okay, but not great. I can feel the wires moving up and down at the bottom and it really isn't a super high impact bra. I got less bounce than I expected, but I would be hesitant to do more than 4 miles in it. I've also worn it out and about a couple times and it's pretty comfy but does look and feel like a lot of bra. I would feel comfortable wearing it without a shirt though because it's high coverage and it is really quite nice looking.
It has a nice wide 3-hook band and it's pretty comfortable. It is super high coverage in the front which I know some people might not love. I have mixed feelings about the strap adjustment. I like that it can't come loose and so far I haven't had any problems with straps falling off, but I don't like the loose ends of the straps. They're actually kind of sharp in some places and irritate me if they're tucked under the strap so I have to leave them sticking out to the side. One thing I hadn't considered is that my running shirt just barely fits over my chest in this bra. I usually wear a compression bra so I'm definitely not used to such a . . . booby look.
