This is a made-to-measure custom fit bra, so the measurements won't probably help you much, so I'll concentrate more on the Enell custom fit process. As you likely know, Enell has its own sizing system, which won't suit those of us with small underbust and big (H+) cupsize. Also, if you're very petite or very tall, the bra will likely be too long of too short as the shoulder straps are completely solid. As the Enell Sports does deliver the best bounce control I've come across, it may be worth the slight extra time the custom fit process takes to ensure you have the best possible support for high-impact sports.

To get your own custom fit Enell, contact their customer service fit experts. I did this via email, as I live on the other side of the globe and I hate calculating time zone differencies. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /> I outlined my problem with their regular sizes, namely, I need a size 0 or 1 band with size 2 across the boobs plus some modifications in the back and under the arms. I was directed to a fit specialist in their custom orders department, who asked some more questions about the fit of my regular size 1 and 2 bras and I send her some pictures and information about my exact measurements and regular bra sizes. She then made a "test version" according to my measurements and needs, and sent it to me for trying. As it was, she was a real pro with online fitting - the test version was practically perfect. I requested only one modification, a slightly tighter band. The test version works fine, but since I had the option of getting exactly what I want, I went for it all out. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

The custom fit bras are available in the basic colours of black, white, pink and powder, but there's also a selection of other colours which vary according to what material they have at their disposal. They'll tell you the options. The price of a custom fit bra is (at the moment) $64 plus custom fit fee $15. For every additional change to the basic pattern you pay $7.50. For a custom made bra I find that quite reasonable, especially since the Enells I have have proven to be very durable despite the heavy wear they get.

Pros:
- fits perfectly
- no bounce in high impact sports like running and martial arts
- durable
- can be worn alone as a sports top
*Edit: - the possibility to custom the colour scheme of your bra is great! I love my lime bra! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />

Cons:
- none in my personal opinion
but keep in mind that
- the process takes some time - if you're in a hurry for your half-marathon next week, forget this https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
- the Enell is based on compression, and I know some people don't like any compression on their boobs. If that's the case, forget the Enell.
- costlier than a regular off-the-rack sports bra - but hey, it's _custom made_

  Why won't you set up some pictures of the fit here on Bratabase? :) It'd be good if there was at least ONE bra up here that showed an accurate fit :) I have uploaded my fit in 00 here, and it truly is not a good representation of how it should fit, and Alisa's doesn't fit quite right either.

• Will do as soon as I get my regular computer back online. I'm writing this through my crappy old laptop which is abysmally slow and runs on Windows '95. :) I've got loads of pics of my other bras as well, so in a couple of weeks I'll be posting them here.
