BraOdyssey was kind enough to send this bra for me to try! Technically it’s my size, but unfortunately something is off about the fit. Like braodyssey, I had to tighten the straps all the way to get any support. And even then the support isn’t that good. Maybe it’s too big for me as well? Or the general construction of the bra and materials aren’t firm enough for me? It’s comfortable and could be worn for low impact exercise but definitely not high impact.

The inside of the cups is a smooth silky material so that’s a plus. The band fits me fine although could be a tad more snug I think. I’m curious what you think BraOdyssey (and thanks again)

I kind of like this bra for all the wrong reasons. In my quest to find a sports bra, I actually sister-sized up twice 30G-->32FF-->34F because I was having problems with too tight bands. I way overcompensated, lol.

Well, surprise surprise this is too big. I do think - similar to Happy2BraShop who wears 32F in this style, that either 32F or 32E would be my size in this bra, since I seem to be oddly obsessed with having really tight cup area for sports bras.

I took off one star for the appearance because I do have nipple show through in this fabric. ... Other than that, this sports bra looks very put together.

Syrokan is a Chinese brand, and I think they're on to something with the engineering of this sports bra. Namely, I appreciate that all components touching my body are smooth. This is particularly important in a sports bra because you don't want to have anything (like, any odd buckles or seams) chaffing you, and I've read about SheFit having weird chaffing issues (but I don't own one). So, 10/10 on fit/feel, I can tell if I sister-sized down and felt a little more contained this would better for a sports bras; it's still comfortable

The outside of the cups - I'm not even sure what to call this fabric, lol. It looks like canvas, but it's stretchy. The straps are half-adjustable. Note: if a person is particularly petite, I wonder if this sports bra will work for them, because I do have the straps adjusted almost all the way and I'm 5'7, but that also might be b/c I'm trying to make up for the fact that the bra is too big for me.

People are always asking for a "sensory friendly" non-underwired bra on ABTF reddit, and honestly, I think doing as I did (sister-sizing up twice, lol, yes it was excessive...) in this Syrokan bra would work as a sensory-freindly non-underwired bra, because the interior of this bra is so smooth.

Overall, for the price and availability, I would give this bra 9/10. I'm not marking the fit on this bra, because it technically does fit me, it's just not tight enough. Even though it's so big, it still works as a low-impact bra for me, so housework, yardwork, etc. If I wanted to go hiking, I would want to sister-size down for a correct sports bra fit. I'm not returning it b/c it would have to go all the way back to China (note: this might be different in the US amazon, but for Canada amazon, this has to be returned to China) and I'm not sure how much that would cost, but I'm assuming at least $15 and it's just not worth it, because I can still get use out of this as a low-impact bra, or a lounge bra!

edit: I want to mention, since we are talking so much about straps today, that they did a really good job on the straps. You can see that the shape is quite wide and comfortable, and the straps are lined.
