This review will be separated into different categories: comfort, sizing, support, breathability, appearance and use, and improvements.
The comfort of this sports bra is so-so. I ordered a large based on another sports bra sizing that matched my bra size (36C) and since the sizing of this sports bra was somewhat small in my case, the comfort level of this sports bra is below average. It felt pretty tight on me and I was constantly trying to adjust the bra to a comfortable fit, but came up with nothing. The material of this sports bra is comfortable (92% nylon, 8% spandex), but not recommended for any types of sports activity or for the summer... Nylon and sweat causes chaffing, making it very uncomfortable for the user.
The straps don't cause any issues on my shoulders, which is good. I would rate overall comfort 3 out of 5 stars because the sizing of the bra is small and the type of material that the maker used.
The sizing of this bra is definitely not what I expected it to be. I based my size on another sports bra that provided sizing in terms of what bra size you wore. Since I'm a 36C, I ordered a large for this bra. I was very wrong. I wore this sports bra and felt very constricted. I didn't feel comfortable at all and all I wanted to do was to take it off. When I wore this bra to go out for a walk, I felt uncomfortable. I would definitely recommend that this product maker would provide a sizing chart based on the bra size from the users... It would save the pain and hassle of choosing a size that they "think" is their size and receiving the product and only to find out that it's a bit small. I would rate the sizing of this bra 1 out of 5 stars.
I feel that the support of this bra is very good. There wasn't any movement when I wear this bra when I go out for a walk or do yoga, but I can assume that the support is just as good if you're doing a high intensity sport as well. The cross straps on the back are a great design for the bra straps to not slip off your shoulders. It gives me a sense of relief that I don't have to worry about the straps from slipping off whenever I go out for a run. I also didn't experience much movement when I jump up and down with them. I would rate the support of this bra 5 out of 5 stars.
The breathability of this sports bra is below average. I've already mentioned this before but the material used to make this bra is 92% nylon. Nylon is completely synthetic and whenever it's combined with sweat, chaffing will occur. The fact that this is a sports bra, you're bound to sweat, making it very uncomfortable for the user due to the itching. Whenever I wore this sports bra doing low intensity sports such as walking or yoga, I don't sweat a lot, so I don't feel uncomfortable... but whenever I go out for a run, I get this feeling of wanting to scratch. I would not wear this when I run because of how uncomfortable the nylon is. I would rate the breathability of this sports bra 2 out of 5 stars because it's a great sports bra to wear for low intensity sports, but not when you do high intensity sports where you sweat a lot.
The appearance of this sports bra is a bit above average. It has a basic design with nothing flashy about it, but I definitely love the fact that it's a cross strap bra on the back. I also like the bottom trim of the bra, making it a tight fit for the user. It has a removable pad, so you always have that option to either have the pad on or off. The bra material doesn't feel cheap, which is great. Appearance is 4 out of 5 stars.
I would definitely recommend a different material used for this sports bra. Nylon is NOT recommended to wear during the summer, so definitely not recommended for sports. I would also recommend that the maker provides a sizing chart that would correspond to the bra size.
Overall, I would rate this sports bra 3 out of 5 stars. The support and appearance of this sports bra is great, having the cross back straps and the lack of movement whenever worn while doing sports, but the material and the sizing of the bra really killed it for me. I would love a bra of this kind with a different material used and would provide me a sizing chart so I can get the (somewhat) perfect fit.
