This is an encapsulation style bra, but it is fully a compression bra on me. Shock Absorber bras are too tall near my shoulder in my correct size. So, I sized down--the source of compression.
The band is wide and supportive. Additionally, the band sports (pun intended) 3x3 fasteners without a racerback or j-hook. It fastens like a typical bra--effortlessly.
The cup is too shallow for my 30FF projected breasts, but it provides comfortable bounce minimization without padding. I will thoroughly appreciate the lack of padding when our sweltering summer arrives. I'm not a jogger, but I play Kinect Sports Track and Field and Boxing daily with my daughter. This bra will be fantastic for Kinect Sports.
EDIT: After 30 minutes walking around in this bra, the top of the cup is too compressive and my lymph nodes began complaining. However, this bra provides the least movement of any sports bras I tried so far. Perhaps I will try the 32F UK and hope the cup is shorter.....
