The bra is great except for one thing. There is some sticking or something that pokes and scatches my back where the strap and back meet. I have search for the plastic and there is none, but the only way I can wear the bra is if I put a band aid on that spot.

These were returned for a refund. Waiting for the refund. Purchased a month ago. Needed a size up. Still waiting. When purchased it was NOT a finale sale. Want to repurchase but service is questionable.

Super excited about this bra, my friend swears by it. I tried it on and it fit perfect. Took off the tag as I thought it was a keeper. Then when I was out in public and was sitting down I noticed it was poking up on my shirt. The wire is very tall for a 5"2 woman and was protruding up at the top of my chest. No return since I took off the tag so do a sit down test before you take the tag off, expensive mistake!

They reimagined the strap length controls to make it less adjustable. I had to send it back, too bag they used to have a great design.

The cup fabric is very thin. Nipples show through on all of my tops and tshirts. Also, cups have an unnatural pointed shape

I found this bra comfortable, however it gives me NO side to side swing support (38D) and little bounce support. The straps do not have enough adjustment options, need to be able to tighten it up more. Had I gone by the sizing recommendation measurements I would have purchased a 34C. The 38D fits me well. Underwire bends out slightly at top inside of cup. Not a smooth look.

Wacoal is a quality brand, This sport bra is well-made and a good fit. However, the underwire is cut too high under my arms making it very uncomfortable. Maybe for someone else it would be ok, but I had to return.

Although beautifully made, it had no support, & made me be flat as a pancake, ha ha!

I wish the straps were better adjustable. They have only three levels of adjustment on the shoulder. Also the bra needs a little padding for when it is cold. I can't wear this one for fear of showing through my t-shirt.

I returned it. Fabric in cups was too thin. Nipples showed. Needs light padding.

Although the bra has a nice fit it is sewn inside out, meaning the underwire is on the outside

I have 3 of these bras because of the shape and size availability. For a bra that cost this much, the fabric should be softer. The straps and the back closure area are way too scratchy. It takes forever to break these in and they still are not that comfortable. I have several other bras from this company and some of them do have softer material but the constructs is not great. Again, I buy them because of the size availability, mostly. I think you can do better at this price point.

The size was way off. Ordered my regular size & I had to use another companies extender for it to reach around me. Not the most comfy wired bra I've worn.

I gave it two days and just couldn't wear it anymore. Like a suit of armor across your chest.

I have very broad shoulders and even with the straps let all the way out, this bra was too tight over my shoulders. Also, there is no give whatsoever in the straps - no stretch. It's not a bad-looking sports bra as sports bras go, and I would have kept it if not for the sizing issue.

The strap adjustment design is horrible, unless you only use the bottom hooks (and nobody with big boobs does). This would be a decent sports bra if not for that.

Not happy with style. Have many Wacoal bras and love them. Don't like that the hard wire comes up the middle. It's uncomfortable.

The wire digs into my underarm and pokes through in the front ( when wearing a t shirt. ) It doesn't lie flat. The coverage though is good.

will stick to bras made by sports bra company in the future! the wires in this are strangely "engineered;" where they come up in front, they do not lie against my skin...but stick out...visibly. Not a good look. And on the sides, again, they do not lie flat but rub against the inside of my arms...enough so, that any exercise involving repetitive arm movements (running...rowing) would be a no go. on the plus side tho, the "hook and slide" strap adjustment stays put...its a nuisance to "adjust;" but I'd rather have that, than need to rehook the hooks every time I put the bra on.

I was looking for a sports brass I didn't have to pull on over my head. This one was good for that, and it's well made. I've been wearing sports bread for exercising for many years. The cups in this bra ate much too thin for sports activities.

This didn’t fit so I don’t know how many stars to assign. I went up a band size and that was a perfect fit; the cup size was ridiculously huge but that’s probably my fault for trying to translate Panache sizing to Wacoal. The way the bra is constructed is weird - the straps adjust with hook/loops and the cups have these weird pockets between the wire & the cup fabric. Almost like the bra was sewn inside out... Returned it.

The front panel between the breasts is extremely stiff and stick out and shows through shirts. It didn't work for me.
