I sister sized up from my usual 30G to a 32FF, which worked well. I may even be able to get away with a 32G.

There are two things I don't like about this bra:
1. The front of the band doesn't have much stretch to it, and it pressed into my ribs in a really painful way.
2. The top hooks are really difficult to fasten. I had to twist my arms in a really uncomfortable way to be able to fasten them (I'm surprised I was even able to).

For the pain issue alone I'll be returning this. It's not that the band is too tight, I can definitely pull it away from my body like my usual bras, but for whatever reason my ribs really hate it.

For my 70-71 cm underbust this 32 band feels spot on. I can use the tightest setting, but that gets uncomfortable after a while so I prefer to use the loosest setting. It is very comfortable overall. I can fasten the back hooks just fine, but I can see how it may be challenging for most people. I feel I would like to tighten the shoulderstraps more, but they do not adjust any shorter. It is odd for me, because I have never before had problems with shoulder strap lenght. I love the colors! My pictures seem more blue, it has more of a green undertone to it.
My bust does move up and down while I jump, but I feel supported and comfortable.

All thanks to @kelsiem I can make this review.

This model just runs shallow in the top. In fact, I'm uncertain this model would work for those with tall roots. And, it is shallow in the center. This shallowness helps create separation without a wire, but it pushes center-full, close-set, soft tissue toward the sides. Consequently, my breasts and lymph nodes collide into the side seam along the top of the cup. My short -waisted physique dilemma: compressed breasts/quadding or encapsulated breasts/screaming lymph nodes. Pick one. This dilemma repeats itself often. It is most apparent, however, in sports bras. Sigh.

Still, this is a sturdy, work horse of a bra which will provide years of superb support.

These bras are great! The band definitely runs about a size small. I've had numerous models over the years, and love them for yoga, dance, and aerobics, where I would rather not be wearing an underwire but need serious compression.

My under bust ranges from a super tight 28.75 to inhaled and loose 31, so I ordered a band size 32 since I saw they ran tight. Trying it on, everything fit as it should. Jiggling was minimized but I did not feel like was wearing a medieval breast plate like I usually do when I wear sports bras- so that was a huge plus! The cup fabric was nice and silky feeling so I wouldn't have any nipple irritation either.

To test out the bra, I wore it on a camping trip to Joshua Tree. The back side of the bra is very open ... with only straps and some mesh which was helpful for keeping me cool in the 100 degree heat (well as cool as you can possibly be at that temp). Cup fabric did great at wicking away under boob sweat, so I only had sweat gathering in my cleavage, which I'm fine with on a compression bra.

The major problem with this bra is it runs extremely tight. Halfway through the day my lungs felt very compressed, like it was too difficult to breathe in. It got to the point where I had to unhook both sets of hooks to give my intercostals a rest. When i measured the bra once home i discovered the stretched band was 30.5 inches, not even close to 32! I'm hoping this stretches out but until then I do not plan on using it for anything over any extended physical activity.

As for cosmetics, the bra has lots of seams and almost all of them show under tech clothing. Boobs are minimized but the monoboob isn't that pronounced. It also looks super cute when worn shirtless, especially if you manage to pick up one of their colored ones https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

I bought this bra to compare with the 32F that I also bought in the blue/yellow colourway. My first impression of this bra is that I'm glad I bought the 32 instead of a 30 as the band fits great, it's not tight it's comfortably snug. Overall, this bra fits well if I do up the upper closure on the tightest setting. It also fits well on the loosest setting, but it doesn't feel firm enough for heavy activity.
