I love these sports bras. They are so supportive and give a great shape. My only issue with this one is it seems to fit a bit smaller in the cups than expected. My 28FFs were a bit small so I ordered this one in 28G. I'm a 28GG in most bras, but I've always sized down in this model. To me, this fits only a smidge bigger than my 28FFs- a half size up, at best. I have very little upper fullness, but my boobs (especially the larger one) are trying to escape out the top. Maybe the black ones run smaller??
I am in love with this bra and rave about it to anyone looking for a sports bra recommendation. I use it mainly for running. It's carried me through a number of races with nary an issue.
The underwire is form-fitting and comfy despite coming up quite high in the center. The fabric and the cut help to reduce sweatiness. The straps are wide and comfortable. I never use the razorback function, but it's good to know that's an option.
I wear a 28G in Panache/Cleo, and the 28G sports bra fits well. The band is snug, but I don't think it's unusually snug for the brand. I have a 27" underbust, have owned the bra for over 6 months, and am only now starting to use the middle set of hooks.
I Love this sports bra. It does fit a little snug in the cup and I will be upgrading to a 28GG, but the size I have now, a 28G, works great with just a bit of squish. When I got it I wore it to work for a full day to make sure it was comfortable. When it passed that test I then wore it for a day of OHV (Off Highway Vehicle) dirt bike riding. With all the jarring and bouncing….and crashing….. this sports bra kept things in place. I never once had to readjust it. No poking, no prodding. No uncomfortable feeling. Soft fabric, padded underwire, padding under the hooks, and it has the ability to convert into a racer-back. Once I get a cup size bigger I’ll really be on cloud nine. Now if I could just find a regular everyday bra to feel the same way I’ll be set.
Maan oh man, maybe it's because it's an encapsulated high impact sports bra, but as someone who loves their bands snug, I had to pull out the extender immediately for this to not continue to take my breath away 😂 With the extender, it's actually super comfy and I say that as someone who isn't used to Panache's wires as well , and more accustomed to Comexim's super soft comfy wires as my ribs need that cushion. I've only worn this hiking, but it kept the girls well in place/secured 👍 It also gives a great shape and obviously some nice uplift especially for a sports bra 🙏 ...The only thing is I wonder if it's because I'm slightly close set that the middle inside on the bra doesn't fully tack? Not sure if it's more of a design/sports bra thing but it doesn't really seem to take away from the support so 🤷♀️ I thankfully was able to snag the last one in Black/Lime in my size for a nice deal, and am happy I did, I love the Black/Lime cool tech color looking design scheme. Definitely would like to snag it again in different colors as well in the future. Read more 94 more words
Probably my favorite sports bra. Realized recently I need to go down a cup size, though. Seems to run a bit big in the cup and band is snug when it's new.
Hi is it fairy red? It’s very nice colour but the back I think it’s running very tight I have 30 HH and under my bust bother a lot how you feeling when you breathe?
maraki Yes, mine is the Fiery Red color. This sports bra does tend to run really snug in the band when it's new but I find they stretch out to a good length after you wear them for a while. You could try a band extender or maybe go up in band size if it's too uncomfortable.
Very comfortable. Goes pretty high on the chest for me as a pretty tiny person, and I do need the straps connected in the racer back to have a proper fit. Lady fitting me in it said it was slightly too big in the band, but it was firm and as good as I was going to get. Boobs feel secure and encapsulated. I usually wear a 28FF but sized up here because of the fit.
I'm a little undetermined about whether I love this bra or not. There is a *tiny* bit of overflow on the sides, and I can decide whether that is just skin or not. I think I'll keep it. Maybe as a swim suit top - it's more supportive than either of my two current swim tops. And it's wonderfully sporty. It is definitely not quite as supportive as my Enell (that bra will never stop being amazing to me).
My first Panache Sport fit great in 28G (in the Navy colorway), but that seems to have been the earliest generation of the Sport. Subsequent Panache Sports have fit much better in 28FF, as I don't have a lot of upper fullness to fill it out. This one fits okay on my larger breast, but waaaaay too big on the other one. I'd advise anyone that is FOB to size down in the cup for the more recently produced ones!
This band is very firm! If I were to buy it again I'd probably go with a 30FF. Still, it fastens and it's not very uncomfortable, so I'll keep this bra.
The straps and cups feel super supportive and comfortable without being suffocating. The grey and purple colorway is exactly what I look for in a sports bra (none of that neon yellow and parrot green madness!). I look forward to exercising in this (and hopefully, through the exercise, getting the band to feel a little less tight)
While the 30G was too big to really support my breasts during exercise, the 28G is better, but on the verge of being too small. The band is fine - it's supportive enough without constricting vital body parts like the lungs, it's the cups I still have some issues with. The wires are too wide even in a cup size down, but since they're padded they don't pinch, but I feel like they don't come up as high on the sides as I'd like. I also have tall roots, so I quad out the top on my larger breast - 30G was pretty much perfect in these things. For now, I've let the straps out all the way, which has minimised the quadding. Ideally I would need a 28G and a half, or at least this size with taller cups and wings.
too small for me! I'll have a better review to write when I try one on that fits. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
I was very sceptical about trying this bra as @Panache and I do not get along (although I can wear some @Masquerade), however I've been pleasantly surprised and I now don't know what I'd do without my @Panache Sports bras. Firstly, it gives great natural rounded shape for a sports bra and doesn't completely squash my breasts. The 28 band is quite firm, but I think its important in a sports bra since that is where the support is coming from. I do a fair amount of high impact sports and I always feel well supported in this bra - including when running. My only gripe with it is that when I wear it in racer-back style the straps do dig in to my trapezius muscles (that run between neck and shoulder) after a while. Altogether its the best bra I've come across for sport and I have just ordered the new sports swimsuit version so I can feel supported doing triathlons.
Tight but supportive band, bra completely encapsulates and separates breasts. Back connector hook is a little too high to use comfortably, but is a good idea.
Black fabric has a tendency or reputation of fitting smaller dye to the dyes but I definitely don’t think it’s always true.
