OMG It Fits
I can't believe it- this bra FITS AND is COMFORTABLE! I'm so glad I bought it (and sincere thanks to all the folks before me that reviewed it so accurately! Your feedback was spot on).I am a thin/slight woman (105 lbs, 5'4") that is naturally full breasted. I typically buy a 34 DDD in a regular bra, but I measure as a 28' under bra so they usually try to sell me a 32 DDD. I have a lot of health issues that cause a lot of physical pain (iFibro/Lupus/RA/Costrochondritis )so I can't tolerate the band being tight. With regular bras I often need a bra extender even with going up a band size. I had bought a bra on amazon -it has double cross straps and it was all wrong for me-the cups too small, band too large. I was pretty shocked that this one actually fit. It's hard to find bras with large cups and small bands that fit comfortably on me.Getting a sports bra, for all the reasons above, is difficult for me bc manufacturers make them to be tight to reduce breast movement and I find it difficult to get over my head bc I have joint pain. I can get in and out of this bra easily.Full disclosure: I was not buying this bra for athletic reasons so I can't comment on how this bra holds up during heavy aerobics. I had purchased some racerback sleeveless shirts and I hate it when my bra straps show. I was just looking for a white sports bra that if it showed, it would look attractive under my shirts.Most of the reviews said the bra was "true to size" so I checked the chart and decided to buy a Large but was worried it wasn't going to fit. I couldn't believe it fit perfectly!I haven't washed it yet, but if anything changes dramatically after washing I'll come back and edit the review.The only negative (and it's not a big deal for me) is that you do get a bit of the "uni-boob" look, but at 65 I'm not concerned about it. I did see someone else had mentioned it which is why I'm writing that here. I think it's just the way the bra is made and with my size, the breasts are "out there" and the fabric in between pulls out a bit so there is a small gap between the girls which I think is the reason it looks a bit uni-boob.I'm not a bra specialist, but perhaps I needed to go up a size. I had considered getting the XLarge but the reviewers that bought an XL were phsyically much bigger than I am and I was afraid it would be too loose.All in all I'm thrilled. The sizing chart seems very accurate and most reviews support this.The bra is cool and comfortable in the hot weather, and I will definitely buy another in the future!UPDATE 8/2024I still love the bra-definitely will buy another. However, after a few washes the band has stretched out and kinda stands away from my skin. I am going to purchase a medium, am worried I won't be able to squish the girls into it. I'll edit again if it was a mistake. Still love it even a bit loose (AGAIN wasn't buying this for aerobics, just to wear under shirts.

Surprisingly comfortable!
It was with a great deal of skepticism that I bought this bra. A comfortable bra? Yeah, right! For years, I've had to put up with welts, weals, and red marks from various styles of bras, so I was rather suspicious at the hype about it being comfortable.I decided to give it the ultimate test by wearing it for 3 1/2 hours while mowing my property on a hot, sunny day.Putting it on was easier than I anticipated, as it's very stretchy... I have mobility issues in my arms and shoulders, so that was a nice surprise.Once I got everything fitted and in place, I discovered that the wide band under the breasts will fold in half if you have an upper belly roll. Didn't seem too uncomfortable, as the material is soft and stretchy, so I tolerated it.I went to work and was comfortable throughout the bouncing, twisting, and jolting I get as I mow with my zero-turn... the bra has good, moderate support.Afterwards, removal was easy despite being drenched in sweat and grass clippings and for once, the bra fit so close to my skin that I didn't get grass clippings inside... no itchy boobies!What made me really happy was no red strap marks on my neck or shoulders, and no welts underneath my breasts despite the band being folded in half!I will definitely consider purchasing another one of these bras... I just wish it came in a beige/nude color to wear under lighter colored tops.

This is a great racetrack bra, very comfy!
Update: 7/28/2024The company contacted me about my review and offered to make my experience better with a new bra of a smaller size. What a difference that was!! Definitely look at the measurements ladies! My size was borderline between XL and 2 XL. They sent me an XL. Fits much better and must more comfortable! Now to try the other bras they sell!!7/6/2024I was looking for a comfortable racerback bra so decided to give it a try. After using it for over a week I will give my review. It is comfortable but runs on the bigger side so probably want to size down one or two sizes. I am normally a 42DD so according to the measurements guide I ordered a 2X which is too big for me but I needed it to wear with a dress so I kept the bra. The front of the bra rolls up under my cups. The back seems to go almost all the way down my back but creeps up over time. The straps although comfortable, creep up towards my neck. I’ve seen other say they don’t get a uniboob with this bra…not sure about that because I definitely get a uniboob! I did take the inserts out as I didn’t feel I needed the extra fabric there. But I’ve tried it with and without the inserts and both ways I get the dreaded uniboob 😭Washes okay. Fabric is nice and soft, breathable. I should have gotten a smaller size for sure. Would I return it if I could? Yes and try a different size. Would I order another shapermint bra? Possibly but in a smaller size.

Not too thrilled about this one.
"Confession: I'm a total Shapermint fanatic! I adore how this bra feels - like a warm hug for my girls. I feel super secure, like Fort Knox for my assets. But, I made the rookie mistake of taking it for a spin...literally. I went for a run, and let's just say I had to downgrade to a brisk walk. This bra turned my boobs into bouncy castles - we're talking trampoline-level action! I mean, I'm a 36DD, not enormous, but you'd think so based on the bra's lack of support. It's like it said, "Hey, I'll keep them inside, but that's about it." Needless to say, this bra has been demoted to "lounge-around-the-house" duty. Not impressed, Shapermint!"

Great sports bra
It stays in place and looks good. I find it very comfortable. I did remove the insert foam cups because thought they made the bra too bulky. I saved the inserts in case i change my mind. I was able to slide them out of the bra very easily.I normally wear a 36 D and the large is a perfect fit.

Comfortable, easy to get on and disability friendly
I'm super sensitive to fabric since my stroke across most of my body except the side I have reduced feeling on. I also have dexterity issues which makes getting bras with hook and eye impossible to get on independently and very uncomfortableI bought one of these to try on in an XXL (38g cup) since I'm used to need a size up and it fit like a glove. So comfortable, I could have easily worn it to bed! Not only that but I can get it on and off without help.I immediately came back and ordered 3 more the next day.I'm choosing to wear them as my day to day bras as I need the extra support but with how well these fit I might try more in the range.My only complaint is they don't do more colours.And ladies, not that it matters but my boyfriend approves and I love that I finally have a cleavage and can sit comfortably in my power chair. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

Nice and comfortable
Nice stretchy sports bra. Medium support- good for yoga and weight training. Sizing chart was right on for me. Will be buying another one.

According to the size chart
I got a size X-large for 38D; I suggest to get the size with your size the smaller of the chart because they are a little too tight. I will get another one for sure because they are very nice and love the support, but 1 size larger where my size is the smallest on the chart.
