I purchased this sports bra on the recommendation of a Nordstrom sales associate; the recommendation was quite some time ago and I was so pleased that Nordstrom was still carrying this sports bra. It is great support and has a great profile.
This is my go to bra for exercise and sometimes for everyday. It has great support and doesn’t push your chest to the sides and flatten it. It leave me a small amount of bounce, but with my size that is amazing. I’m a 36G or 38G depending on the time of year and amount of comfort food I’ve eaten. The straps have a loop and hook system so no slipping of the strap slide (like on regular bras). The straps are heavy duty and slightly wider than normal. Back is fitted in slightly so you get more support to the front. It has underwires that are padded, so no poking wires. It is thick and if it shifts it will rub so order your bra size and expect it to run slightly small. Three hooks in back. Sold as use the first and work your way in as it stretches but I buy for the center hook so I can adjust for my bodies monthly changes (and eating binges, sigh). Great bra.
In choosing this bra for running, order a band size up and cup size down. Returned it for a larger band size and smaller cup size, then it fit. The bra does lift and separates the girls; but headlights do show. Not particularly comfortable, but it works. This bra reminds me why I hate all sports bras, but it is the best of the worst.
I’m normally a 38B but I bought this in a 38C. The 38C in Wacoal fits me well, a bit lose in the cup but still amazing. Even though this bra is underwire it’s still very comfortable. No digging or bunching like most sports bras. Honestly, I wear this bra when I’m not exercising because it’s so perfect. The BEST part is that the fabric keeps your skin dry from sweat. I live in Miami and exercise outside often. Typically by the end of a work out I’m drenched but this bra keeps my back and “under boob” dry. I will be buying another!
