The advice on this sports bra was to go a band size up and a cup size down. For me the band size advice was correct. I could have used my regular cup size. I returned the bra.
I had this bra in a hot pink color and find I always prefer wearing it to all my other sports bras when it is very warm. It's light and wicks sweat off. It's also comfortable. I wanted it in the blue but it sold out even before the sale went on (?) so I got the white instead, which I don't love. I think this bra would be perfect for travel to a warm climate and don't consider it just for exercise. A warning on size though - it runs small and you have to order a band size up. I am a 34 DDD but take this in 36DDD and it is still tight, but I can't imagine going up anymore in size. I took a star off because it is hard to put on and hope it stretches out a bit, but once it is on it feels great.
