likesThe summary of these two bras is misleading, it doesn't seem to accurately take into account that one of these bras doesn't have separate cups.
The 28GG Panache is too small for me, I take a 28H in that bra. The Panache Sport runs true-to-size in the band, I wear it on the middle hook from the start.
The 28HH Shock Absorber fits me (the straps are as short as they go, and I will likely alter them a couple cm shorter). The band on the Shock Absorber is very small, I can just barely fasten it, but a 30 needs to be on the tightest hook to provide support.
Overall, I prefer the Shock Absorber, the gore on the Panache is far too wide for me, and I'm not too pleased with how far it pushes my breasts to the side.
