I was shocked to see Nordstrom's Zella Sports Bras aren't part of the collection here. In my experience they work for a variety of smaller/smallish bands and some have very good coverage - enough to manage cups up to a G or GG (I'm speculating). All the recent sports bra posts this weekend inspired me to chime in.

So - Body Fusion is a pull-on sports bra. It doesn't have hooks - it's just one soft, thick stretchy band that you pull over your head. It has high/wide front coverage, thick/soft racerback straps, a surprisingly wide, soft & supportive band, and moderate compression. It's a good option ... for 1) low-med impact sports bra 2) lounge/sleep bra.

Thick straps and lots of coverage are the most comfortable aspects of this bra. I still have lots of side boob when fully Scooped & Swooped but it doesn't affect comfort for me. The band is wide and soft, but stretchy - enough so that my boobs migrate under the cups and down to the bottom of the band after a while, and I have to scoop them back into the bra every couple hours. (But they don't fall out the bottom! lol) On the other side of the spectrum I *never* have unwanted cleavage/exposure at the top - a miracle for my FOT girls! (Me : UK 30J/JJ, Full on top, center-full, rather wide/tall roots, pendulous, rather soft tissue)

The only uncomfortable part for me is where the straps come together at top of my shoulders/back of my neck. Because the band is too loose to give me personally enough support for the cups, it makes my shoulders/neck sore. However, I was desperate for soft, non-wired, lower compression options postpartum, so I made this one work, partly because I was a higher weight, so the band fit better at the time, providing more support for the cups and taking more weight off of my neck via the straps.

Though this is clearly not a great fit for me, I'm posting because it's a really good bra overall, and I think it would work very well for bodies with 30/32/34+ underbusts and lower cup sizes - maybe up to a G/GG? Pure speculation here, but the bra's def got "good bones", and you can't beat the price. It runs around $35 USD normally, but it goes on sale *all* the time - right now 3 or 4 colors are $21 each. Ridiculously cheap. ≈
