This bra is very soft to the touch. That was the first thing I noticed. As such, it is very comfortable to wear.
The cups are pretty shallow. I think they may be a tad too shallow for my shape, but it's a molded cup so you can't really tell. It does cut into my tall roots a bit. Interestingly, the padding is thicker over the nipple area than at the edges. You're not going to need nipple covers with these.
The band is quite stretchy (boy, I really have a talent for picking stretchy when I need firm) and the first day I was wearing it on the ... tightest hook. It was comfortably snug at that point, but I will have to alter it sooner rather than later.
The j-hook on the back can convert the bra into a racerback, and even better, you can move it to your satisfaction. I'm greatly pleased by this, since it gives the straps more room to adjust. I had an old ill-fitting bra with a j-hook, but it couldn't be moved, so I never used it since it attached too far up my back for me to be comfortable with it.
Update: I sewed a ribbon onto the bottom elastic and reduced the overall stretch to about 29.5ish inches. There was some pressure when deep breathes afterwards, and I could hear/feel the gore/wires creaking as they stretched, but it was pretty comfortable otherwise. I had to move the j-hooks up higher to adjust the straps to my liking, and now they're too high up for me to use, but that's ok. I was expecting that anyway.
Update 2: On a whim, I loosened the straps a bit and used the j-hook. It changed the fit of this bra from decent to great! Without the j-hooks, I could feel that there was space in the outsides of the cups, and the center/top cut in ever so slightly. In racerback mode, all those tiny fit issues are gone. The sides of the cup become super shallow and the cups no longer cut in. It holds me in place super well now. Before, I had consigned this bra to "not to buy again." Now it's the best fitting molded/t-shirt bra I own! Which is great because it comes in awesome colors I can again look forward to owning.
