Cup shape is not round underwire goes too high under armpit. Uncomfortable

It is very supportive, but wish it only had three hook&eye closures instead of four. Also wish the bras were tag free, they are very scratchy and I need to cut them out.

I have worn style 85567 for almost 10 years.ordered new bras this summer and just opened one to wear. It is the same style but not the same quality. The strap is smaller, the clasp closure went from 3 clasps to 2 and it's tight. I've actually lost weight but bought the same size I've been wearing. Am not happy with this cheapened quality.

I ordered a band size of 44 (from 42) to accommodate a little weight gain. Can't tell the difference. Band still too tight.

This bra, mostly, fits well; cup size is good, and a good minimizer. However, it is a bit too snug around body; actually hurts upper rib cage. It will hopefully loosen a bit with more wear. Don't have that issue with other Wacoal bras; they fit perfectly and comfortably in same size.

I have been wearing the awareness bra for at least ten years. I have found that the quality has gone down. The bra used to have substance. Now it's flimsy. The sides of the bra used to be lined with a lovely soft material which I feel helped the bra hold its shape for a long time. I find the Lacey material against my skin to be a bit scratchy.
I guess this is the way everything is now. Every company eventually changes their best selling product to save money- but keeping the same price for the customer with a product that is no longer up to the old standard. It is disappointing, but what can you do. :(

I bought this awareness bra after you discontinued the moulded cup awareness. It's just ok not my favorite. The mounded cup was perfect, please bring it back

I picked up 3 of these bras. Two for my Mother and one for me. I wear 34 band and have done so for 40 years.
My Mother wears a 32 band and has done so for 70 years.
The 34 band I tried on was about 8 inches too small around.
The 32 band my 89 year old Mother tried on was 4" too small around. (For her, too tight to force it around.)
I"ve ran into this about a year ago when I bought a different brand name. I did some research and I'm finding out the bra industry all over the world (each country) and in the USA does not have a bra standard sizing system to follow. Wow!!!
Seems to me this is bad for the bra industry and women all over the world.
So to find the size that fits me best, I will have to shop my bra by country??? This is made in the Dominican Republic. It is a very nice bra, nice material, pretty also. Unfortunely, they make their bras too small in the band/band size comparing to some other countries.
All three bras are being returned. Reason- Too small in band sizing. We could reorder a lot bigger size, but I'm not going to monkey around with that.

I have written to Wacoal a few times and must say their customer service is lacking. I bought two new Simone sports bras and the bands were over an inch different in length as were the straps. No response was received, even though I sent a photo. These bras are great, but they need to make a 42 G! The customer service once told me to increase from my usual 42 DDD and it would fit the same as a 40 G. I did, and the band was too small. Please, Wacoal, make your straps and band a bit longer so we don't have to size up.

The bra is ok, does not give the support I need. I prefer the support of the sports bra, but the middle of that bra made it look like I had a third boob. I will not buy the Awareness bra again. Does Wacoal have a bra that provides support for large breast's?

I tried this when they discontinued the lightly padded version. I used to wear this style and thought it would be ok. But the sizing and fit were so different, I had to return. What happened to this bra? I miss the other version so much, it was my perfect bra and I haven't found any to replace it. None of the other bras have the wider straps I need for my size, why??

I love the style and fit - EXCEPT I cannot keep the straps on my shoulders. I also have one of your other styles with 3 hooks in the back and it doesn't stay on my shoulders either but it is not as bad as this one.

Ordered my usual size 40 DD but the band was too tight. The fabric was soft and the construction seemed supportive but it was just too tight. The color was very beautiful. I've had better fit with the Superbly Smooth Underwrite bra.
Wacoal should probably put this info in their description so that consumers know to go up a band size. It would save a lot of trouble.

I don't know why, but the underwires are digging into my armpits really deep, so painful. I purchased the exact same ones a few years ago, they were comfortable.

I always wear underwire, t-shirt bras and loved the look of this one with the wider straps. It is very pretty, but did not work for me at all. I'm almost 60, full busted and needed some lift, but this did not do the job for me. It was very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, I had to return it. Check the return policy at Wacoal; it was a pain and I was responsible for full shipping costs.

The plastic underwires break easily. For the price of these bras the quality should be far better.

I ware Wacoal for many years, but comparing with years before you're using sagging material , low quality. In addition, the band is too short - I ware 40DD and always need to use an extension to the band.

I've been wearing Wacoal for a long time. This is the most uncomfortable bra I've ever bought. The straps just dig into my shoulders. Adjusting them as far out as they will go and still unwearable. Although it is marked as the size I ordered, I'm wondering if it was mislabeled.

This bra is absolutely poorly made. No side support which gives your look a sagging appearance. It kept shifting around making it very uncomfortable to wear.

The size is way off! I ordered a 40DD and it's a 34. Disappointed and can not exchange or return.

You have changed the dimensions of the shoulder straps and side band. The material has changed and it's poor quality compared to my previous purchases of the same style. I'm extremely disappointed. I'll never purchase it again. I've been a customer for years on this style.

This bra must have had the size mislabeled. It was NOT a 36G, which is what I wear in all other wacoal bras I have (I have 10 of them). It was at least two sizes down, both band and cup. I returned.
