Overall, this bra is quite comfortable. The material is soft and is pretty stretchy, but otherwise is supportive for what little breast tissue I have. I fell asleep wearing it one night recently then rolled out of bed and out the door to do some running-of-errands, It wasn't until I was home later and jumped in the shower that I realized I was still wearing it!

The only complaint I really have is the strap length. Even in the pictures of the models wearing you'll notice they're adjusted to full length. For me, this is still almost too short, but I'm able to get by with it.

Overall, I would recommend this bra, especially for anyone with a smaller bust size. I don't expect it would be much good for bigger folks.

This bra has been serving me well in the short time I've owned it. The one thing I'm not terribly fond of is the pointy look that it gives me. If you look at some of the reviews of the bra around Amazon and places of the sort, you will see that others liken it to a bullet bra.

Otherwise, I love the support that I get, especially around the sides of my breasts. The one thing I am wary of is that it seems to be stretching out quite quickly. I am going to give it a rest for a while though and see if it recovers.

After wearing this bra for a couple of weeks, I now feel as though it is a great fitting bra. I have gone back to wearing a couple other bras lately, but they just don't provide the right amount of support.

Initially I thought that this bra fit tight, but in retrospect I know that it's actually a proper fit. I almost forget I am wearing it throughout the day most days.

The one complaint I have is that the straps, since they're a slick material, like to work loose. This results in the straps falling off my shoulders sometimes, which can be awkward.

I have been wearing this model bra consistently nearly every day for the last 3 to 4 years. As a man, it's been a huge challenge for me to find something that fits, and just by random choice, this one did it.

The underwires are on the outside of the cup, which is interesting. You might think that it would mean you don't feel them, but that's not entirely accurate. The cup lining, as you'll see in my fit pictures that will follow shortly after this post, is pretty thin, and it doesn't do much to reduce the pressure of the wire against the ribcage.

The band is rather ... solid, which is great. I get so frustrated with bands that make a simple rubber band seem tight. I don't mean that the band is too tight for me, as it gives just the right amount without being sloppy.

The straps are about my only complaint, but at the same time I love them. Instead of having a slider adjustment, they have large loops and hooks that slide into the loops. I normally wear it on the third loop, which means there's a sort of tail of the strap from the other unused portion just dangling. This really only presents an issue when I put it on, as the straps don't lay flat until you do some sort of contortionist move to fix them. After that, though, they're fine. I learned through the purchase of an Ambrielle clone of this bra, but it didn't have the same strap adjustment: It used a slider. About half way through the day, those straps would slide to full extent just from normal daily activity. The Wacoal straps don't do that though: They stay put.

The picture's I'm going to add were advertised as "blue". When it arrived in the mail, it was totally purple. It does come in other colors, but I tend to follow the clearance sales and usually end up with some wild colors. My most recent was actually a blue, but still closer to the purple end of the blue range on the spectrum. I've had the nude color and black in the past though.

All in all, I love this bra. The only fit complaint I have is related to my own personal needs, though. I am starting to need something with much more lower-cup support, and since this bra is a stretch cup, it doesn't meet those needs. I might stitch a woven fabric panel into them to provide that support sometime, but we'll see.
