SF Pin Up in 65K

I am adding this in for data/ informational purposes only. I do not own this braat this time.

SF Pin Up is classified as a Semi Soft bra (aka Semi Padded), though it has no padding what so ever. The logic is that the material is stiffer, and thus EM considers this padded, which it clearly is not. If you are looking for a padded bra, this is not for you. If you are looking for a supportive bra, then this one is perfect for you. Aside from the misleading description of the SF bras on EM’s website, this bra is quite nice. The pattern in blue with white micro dots and red bow accents.

Now for the specifics:

The band measures 23.75” to a max of 33.5". There are 3 hooks and 4 rows of eyes, which has been standard on every EM bra I’ve gotten so far.

Cup Depth as measured by:
1 Hovering the cup between the knees, then placing the tape measure into the cups without any resistance.
This measurement is: 12.5"

2 Placing the cup over the knee and stretching it similar to what a breast would, to the maximum resistance.
This measurement is: 14.5"

I feel these two figures give you a general idea of the minimum and maximum depth that the cup can accommodate, just like the flat and stretched band measurements do with bands. Since Bratabase only has one cup field, I enter the larger of the two, as it’s this larger number that determines if a cup is going to fit me or not since I am on the max end of the cup scale, but do realize that some may need the lower number to determine fit for their needs, so I will always include both figures in the reviews for full disclosure.


The wires actually overlap for the top half of the center gore, which is a bit odd. The sewing on this area looks odd prior to putting it on, though it doesn’t look or feel askew while on. There are 4 parts to the cup, three vertical, with one horizontal lace section on top.

Update 11/25/18: I pulled this one out of storage to try the fit again. I am at hi tide, about the fullest point of the month for me, so I opted to add new photos to compare. My breasts have grown a bit since I first got this one, but hi tide makes it even worse. Can't get my boobs in the bottom of the cup (only could at low tide when it fit anyway) and a lot of quadding on top of the cup. :-/ Back into storage for this one.

This bra is not owned any more
