Panache Women’s High Impact Underwire Sports Bra – Max Support, Moisture Wicking, Secure Fit Workout Bra for Women

GREAT bra but BUYER BEWARE THIS IS UK SIZING NOT US SIZING. Those US sizes do not always translate properly to UK sizes because US sizing is not as standardized from brand to brand like UK sizing is...so even if you are POSITIVE you know your proper size, take the extra 5 minutes to follow the measuring guide here: [...] and this bra will fit you PERFECTLY the FIRST time! Besides, you never know how much you can vary in a short period of time and is it not just easier to take the 5 minutes to measure and trust that then to make returns and have to reorder?I had measured myself 5 ways to Sunday not THAT long ago ago and "thought" I was sure of my size, I feel I know a lot about bras, having changed 6 cup sizes post pregnancy with each of my 3 kids, nursing all of them, dealing with age and all that gravity that comes with it lol. I have done my share of measuring and bra buying. ...and I haven't used the old +4 measuring system in more than 15 years. Turns out I was STILL wrong lol. Ok, so I used their system and it told me I was a 32G, I did not believe them (even though their site tells you to trust your measurements lol) and I got my sister size of 34FF thinking no way am I a 32 anything. Wrong. So I buy this in my "sister size" of 34FF, cups fit near perfect but slightly wide due to the larger band...and band a tad loose. Huh, go figure...they were spot on with the 32G (US 32I) So my daughter gets this one, as that is her size...and I had to reorder for myself. Point being, if you use their measuring, you should be able to get this particular bra right the first go around as it is spot on with that measuring system.Now for this bra, I thought only a zipper sports bra could give this level of "anti" bounce lol...nope, of the 3 bras I ordered to try out THIS one beat out even the zippered sport bra I tried! (all bras were in a similar price range) It is very sturdy, the sturdiest of all 3, not flimsy at all like one of the brands I tried...doesn't smoosh you to kingdom come, you can actually breath, AND I jumped in place as if I were on a trampoline for a solid 5 minutes in front of a mirror with and without a shirt on and even in the 34FF that was a tad big in the band, I could hardly detect any bounce factor...I was astonished. Now THIS is a sports bra ladies. Extra benefit, it doesn't make your boobs look like the are running away from each other in opposite directions under a sport top either lol. You all know what I am talking about lol. You either get uniboob or repelling boobs...this gives neither if sized properly! Just normal boobs...well okay...big normal boobs lol.

I LOVE this bra, BUT you do have to be patient while discovering your correct size.For the longest time, I was a devote wearer of the Maia bra, but it was discontinued. So, I went on the hunt for a new running (high impact) bra.This bra by Panache is BETTER than the Maia in so many ways. Panache has created not only a bounce free and comfortable bra, but an incredible design with the racer back clip feature, and the smart cup compartments. I can do extremely High Impact movements with absolute comfort and zero bounce. That is impressive.Back to the topic on sizing. I wear a 34 DD in all other brands BUT for the Panache bra, I wear a 32 F. This gives me a proper cup fit, and the band is also a good fit. Therefore, I had to order a couple of times to try on different sizes and find the right fit with Panache. And, it was totally worth it.Also, if you want to protect this bra while washing, get a padded lingerie washing bag designed to offer ultimate protection for bras, use mild detergent, hang dry, and **never use fabric softener on this bra. If you do those things, the underwire will stay in perfect condition.I would give this bra 10 Stars... it is a superior high impact bra. Excellent quality and worth the money.

Love this bra. I have large bouncy boobies, 36ddd. I always feel uncomfortable and insecure at when I work out or run, but this bra helps tremendously. It fits well and provides good support. I use the racer back function for a little extra support and I love it. I still bounce a bit but for the most part it keeps everything in place in a way that I'm comfortable with. I would buy this in every color if it were available.

This product feels really secure and held in everything during a high intensity workout.The straps are thick and durable, and the waist band is tight.Sizing is almost perfect, not as exact as I wanted but not too far off. It’s a little big in the cup area- but not enough to truly be an issue.Delivery was great and product was in good shape!Would order again!

Me: 34dd/ddd; use for CrossFit, running, yard workThe good: this is the best sports bra I’ve ever purchased. I have three and will continue buying until they discontinue. These bras are both encapsulating and compressing. The wires go high on your sternum, which means they’re very supportive to life AND *separate* the girls. Totally necessary for me as I break out in a rash in that area if it’s too sweaty. Adjustable straps and band make it easy to adapt the fit to different times of the month and for different activities (I wear it looser during the day and can “cinch up” for a high impact workout).The bad: the convertible hook to make it racer back friendly is not the most comfortable ever (though very easy to do). It makes the straps sit really high on my traps and is a bit tight. I don’t notice it too much once I start working out tho.The ugly: for some reason, high impact, large busted sports bras all have seams going right down the middle, leaving lines on your shirt. This does the same. Not the end of the world, but not my fav.Overall: wish I could consult with designers to change some details, but hands down the best experience I’ve had with a sports bra.
