Comfy
I’m Wearing a 42 G - 230lbs, it is true to size. Looks nice and comfortable without being too fancy. Provides full coverage with comfortable straps and nice full back closure. Fabric is robust but light weight and smooth. Support level is moderate, I can walk quickly but not really run. Pleased with the price! Really good deal for a bra that actually comes in my size and fits. I Have been able to tolerate wearing it for a full day which is great (sometimes I really need a sports bra to survive). I find it sometimes pushes into my stomach hard with the underwire when I sit but it’s breaking in and doing that less. I’m really happy with it and may get another.

Best bra ever, have been wearing these for 2.5 years!!!
I'll spare you any pictures of me actually wearing the bra lol, but this is by far the best bra I've ever worn. 2.5 years ago I ordered 3 of these and just tonight the under wire on one of them popped so I came back to order 3 more. I have other bras, but they are like, emergency backup bras, because if I can wear one of these, that's always my first choice.I went and did some in real life bra shopping back in 2023 and found this little gem. Of course they only had one in my size so I ordered more here. Best decision I've ever made because now all I have to do is search my orders and hit order again instead of going bra shopping and hoping I find something I like with more than one in stock. We all know just how much "fun" bra shopping is 🙄 especially when you have bigger boobs and they literally don't have anything in your size.This is the most comfortable bra I've ever worn. And the fact that these 3 bras have lasted me 2.5 years before one popped an underwire is simply phenomenal. I truly put my bras through the wringer. I do a lot of outdoor work that puts them under stress on a daily basis. they have a big job to do and they've done it well.These just fit so well, they are so comfortable, and they are true to size. The elastic has been a champ, they are still going strong, better than any bra I've ever had before. You know how usually bras have elastic strings hanging out of them eventually? Not these. I have been wearing mine on the tightest strap setting and I just ordered one size smaller. I hope that's not a mistake due to them possibly stretching out some over the years despite the elastic still looking great (pic attached), but they have been a little loose here lately so it was about time for new ones anyways. I have lost some weight since buying the first ones so hopefully the new ones fit properly.I always hung these to dry until here recently, my dryer doesn't run very hot so I kinda got lazy, maybe that's part of the reason for my under wire failure tonight. I WILL be hanging the news to dry just in case! I did notice that right where it popped some of the stitching had started to come unravelled (pic attached). If they ever stop making this bra I will probably cry. It's been like finding a unicorn, it is the best bra I've ever owned. It's not the sexiest thing in the world, but WHO CARES if it's COMFORTABLE!!! I'm at the stage in life where I DO. NOT. CARE. what it looks like as long as it's comfortable, that's all that matters.Rest in peace comfortable bra #1, you will be missed dearly!

Would Buy Again
I actually love this bra. It does a great job at minimizing, no “bounce”, good coverage, no issues with sizing & quite comfortable. I also find no issues with the material, under wire or padding. I couldn’t find a front closure bra that was a minimizer that had great reviews so I ordered this one. I prefer a front closure bra (never had one) because my shoulders and hands have difficulty reaching to the back and using the hooks so I hook it first in front of me and turn it around and put it on. The band does stretch a little so I am on the next “tighter” set of hooks. I took a chance with this one because of the reviews and was desperate for a new bra. and other than the back closure this is a very good bra. If anyone knows of a great minimizer, front closure bra, with minimal padding, I’d love to know what it is.

Best bra for big boobs—order your usual size!
Or get a couple different sizes to try if you can.I have been wearing this bra for four years and I love it! It offers great support without giving you pointy boobs. It’s not padded and there are no seams on the front. When you get the right size it separates nicely so you don’t get sweaty boobs in the middle. Lol. Because it’s a back smoother the back is a little wider and so it’s more comfortable and doesn’t dig in.Over the last two years. I’ve lost about 100 lbs and so I’ve been going down bra sizes. According to the size chart, (35” ribs, 45” bust) I would be a 40DDD (I’m a 36I in other brands) I know that my current 38H version of this bra was too big in the band and cup so I ordered a 36H. It fits perfectly, the band isn’t riding up in back and I don’t have four boobs. It’s a little snug because it’s new, but I know that it will stretch in the next few weeks. (The reason bras are adjustable is so you can start at the biggest hooks and move in as it stretches. With a 38 band, I would’ve had to start on the smallest band setting and then it would ride up as it stretched out.)These bras hold up pretty well for a few months, but washing them in a lingerie bag will prolong their life. Otherwise the hooks can get caught in dryer and they bend easily. Eventually the underwires start to poke through (in 6-8 months?) but they’ve lasted longer than the LB/Cac- ique backsmoother bras I’ve had.I would given it 5 stars if you could guarantee fit from the size chart and it came in an I cup.

Best bra!
Excellent bra. I have been wearing this brand and exact style of bras for several years. I’m a 36 C bra, previously a 38 DD before losing 50+ lbs. I’ve never liked being chesty and always look for a non padded bra. This minimizes the size of my chest and smooths out my back in tight tshirts. I never get hot in them and they wash well. The only issue I have ran into in the wires eventually work their way out, but that is fault of my own. You should hang dry any of your bras, but I don’t. With that said, they last a two years or more before that happens. Best thing about this bra is the support. I’ve had 4 children’s and breast fed them all. You can imagine the damage that has done to my chest. Without the bra, they hang pretty low. With the bra, no one can tell and it appears I have a very flattering, perky chest!
