Comfortable and supportive. I wish the wires weren't so wide! If they were narrower, ala Polish bras, this would be perfect. Other than that, a solid sports bra, one I've had multiple versions of. This particular design is really fun and brightly designed. I especially love the purple color on the inside of the cups. (I think it's called the "Painterly" design) I was getting sick of wearing my plain black sports bras, and this one was about $20 cheaper than the other colors. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" />

It seemed fit when I wore it for the first time but now, after scoop and swoop I have slight uniboob and center gore doesn't sit on my sternum.
My Bratabase reference size is 30DD/E, and now I'm on my luteal phase so I guess the bra itself is true to size.
Since it doesn't give me any armpit spillage so I'm keeping it.
Overall the bra is excellent. Though it's wireless, it has beauty, comfort, and support at the same time.

I usually stick to underwired sports bras and have used the panache underwired sports bra for years. I have lost 75 pounds in the last 14 months though and that bra no longer works for me. I sized down twice but the fit was wrong. Because if that I assumed this one would not work as well but recently decided to give it a try and it is definitely worth it!
-this bra is higher in the armpit than the other bra so my looser breasts (5 kids + 75# weight loss) don’t inch out.
-no underwire to stab ... me; this never happened when I first started using the bra but my shape must’ve changed a little (or the sizes are constructed a bit different) and I just couldn’t find a size that didn’t.
-higher rise; I run ocr races and like something that doesn’t show as much cleavage when going under the barbed wire (where they always take pictures).

In addition this bra has barely any bounce even running downhill the day before my period-lol
It has a nice wide 3 hook closure
Keeps my breasts separated

I think I could have gone down 1 cup size because there is a little bit of room there but it doesn’t seem to make any difference in bounce.
I went up a band size though to a 32 instead of a 30 and it is definitely as tight as I want it.
Worth every penny!

This is one of the most comfortable bras I've ever worn; that being said, I don't tend to wear it while "working out" or doing anything super strenuous. I wear it sometimes as an every day bra, and also when I walk.
I have two of the black Panache sports bras, and would have tons more in more of the fun colors, if they weren't so dang expensive. They don't make your boobs look cute or sexy, but the comfort level more than makes up for it.
If you want an every day bra that you can easily wear while doing light exercises, like walking or biking, this is the one for you.

This is actually my first sports bra purchase ever. It's delightful to have a band that fits my 25-inch ribcage securely from the loosest hook for once and straps that won't slide off my shoulders. The cups aren't quite the right shape for me though. I think they're a little too shallow at the bottom. But I am not used to not having an underwire, so it may just take some getting used to. It does stay in place and keep me in place, which is the main point anyway. I like the fit of the racerback more, but the hook is uncomfortably high. At least the straps are soft. Overall, my complaints are minor, and I'm happy with the look and function of it so far.

LOVE THIS BRA!! This is the absolute perfect sports bra for my size/shape!! It holds in everything in place and keeps me from bouncing everywhere! I love the fact that that I can wear as a regular bra, but I love having the J hooks and that I can easily convert to a racer-back and it's easy to reach. It's also lightly lined so that nipples don't show through on cold days. I have several colors and rotate them as I work out several times a week. Again, very expensive bras, but worth the cost for the great fit and durability.

Great non-wired sports bra! It feels more snug than the wired version, but I love the J hooks in the back that give me the option to make it racer-back very easily. It's also an expensive bra (bought on discount at $68) but finding my size (let alone anything that is durable/comfortable) is very hard to find, so I will always buy one if I can find it at sale price.

Accidentally bought this thinking it was underwired; non-wired bras just aren't for me!

Bra runs full in the cup. I recommend sizing down one cup size. The band also runs really tight, so if you're between band sizes go up one band size (and down two cup sizes).

The size 30H would best people who typically wear a 30HH or 28J.

I previously purchased this bra in a 34F and found that it felt uncomfortably tight for me, so I decided to try to size up in the band. That seems to have done the trick. I compared the two bras in these sizes and found that the cups are pretty much identical and that the main difference is in band length. I found this size to be more comfortable. My breasts were contained and not too compressed, the band felt snug, and the style is cute. I'm not planning to use it for any really high intensity exercise, but it should do nicely for my purposes.

I bought this bra on sale at a Nordstrom Rack. 28 bands are online only at Nordstrom, so this must have been an online return. Sadly it was too small for me, and I sold it. I loved the colors, wish it had been a 28E or 30DD.

I was hopeful that this would be a holy grail sports bra for me. It definitely appears to fit - no quad boob, no obvious rubbing under the arms, and it gives nice shape to my breasts - but I find that when I've been wearing it for more than a few minutes my breasts are sore. It could be that the fabric is thick enough that it offers some compression which I'm finding uncomfortable. Otherwise, the band is pretty snug, and that may be causing the problem for me. I understand why bra makers design sports bras to have supertight bands as that's the ... only way to provide support for high impact exercise. I've dealt with my share of bone-crushingly tight bras when I was running consistently. I mostly want something to wear for yoga and other low to medium impact exercise right now, so I don't need it to be so snug. I am going to try sizing up to a 36E to see if that fixes the issue. My other observation is that the straps definitely don't seem long enough for me to convert to racerback, although this may work on shorter people.

I have 3 wireless Panache sport bras at the moment, and the fit is the same in all of them, only some variation in the band length. In summary, all of the 3 have shorter bands than the wired versions I´ve owned. The only complaint I have is that when using the J-hook with the straps (straps crossed at the back), the straps don´t adjust long enough for me. I don´t usually have an issue with strap length at all. Straps are ok when I don´t use the J-hook.

ETA. I have made a removable alteration to the band (see pics!): I sewed an extra eye (3x3) part to ... the band. This gives about 1,5 inches / 4 cm more length to the band.

I will copy here the review I wrote for the purple version 28F:



Great bra but do size up in the band!! This one is purple/violet with white stripe on top.

My boobs are: wide + tall root, shallow. My "usual" size: 28F.

I have had the wired version in 30E and 28F (black, pink, purple, turqouise, raspberry colourways) (oh dear, how many I´ve owned!!!). 28F started to feel a bit too tight at some point so I sized up to 30E. I couldn´t even close this 28F, first I had to go get an extender!! So I do think it is tighter in the band than the wired version.

Other than that, it is a great bra https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> Feels very supportive and comfortable and gives great lift! I think that in my case, it fits just as well as the wired one. "Cups" are wide enough and the shape is awesome.

This really is the best sports bra. It is so supportive, yet it still gives a great shape under clothes. The band is nice and snug and there is a J-hook so it can be worn as a racer-back if desired. The band is nice and tight too. This fits well right now, when I am more of a 26G/GG or 28FF/G. When I weigh about 5 pounds less and tend to wear 26FF/G and 28F/FF, the 28F fits better.

I loved this sports bra when it fit me, very supportive and even fairly cute as far as sports bras go. I have recently gone down a few sizes so it does not fit me anymore.

Fantastic quality sports bra, very supportive. The band is waaaaay too tight for me, and the cups just a tidge big. An expensive bra, but the quality is obvious. Wish it fit!

Updated on Jan 16, 2018 Flag this

A bit small for me, but it holds me in and it's okay and works fine for the gym. Good quality. I'll try a cup size up next time.

Feels comfortable on but does not give a nice shape under clothes.. it was rounded but pushed out too the sides and flat in the middle...

this was ok, in terms of bounce control and gave a rounded shape BUT it compressed my wide fot boobs too much making them looking flat in the middle and bulging out at the sides.. not a look I would want to wear in public.. its like its pushed them down and out... I don't think anyone wants that look.. I want them up and together otherwise I might aswell not be wearing a bra
