I just received this bra, today. My normal size is 34DD, but based on reviews and knowing that most sports bras seem to run a bit snug, I sized up to a 36DD. Perfection! I did have to close the hook and eye closure on the smallest one, but for now is perfect. I will definitely be buying more of these! These would be great for everyday wear, also. The quality seems to be pretty good, with some padding, but not enough to make a difference in the cup size. I like the fact that the straps are a bit wider and won't dig in and also has a nice divided strap design to give it a little feminine touch. The side and back are fairly wide to help with the dreaded bra/back flab. Cups fit very nicely with full coverage, but a deep enough vee for those low cut shirts. Like I said, I just received it today, tried it on and put it in the washer. I have no idea, at this point, how durable it will be. I anticipate it holding up very well, based on my trying it one and just looking it over. Bali bras have been my go- to bras for many, many years. This may replace those! At this point, I would highly, highly recommend. I will update my review if I find it does not hold up well.
