The fit was just generally wrong on this one, and I found it hard to pinpoint the problem. Maybe I needed a way larger cup size. The structure looked promising, but I couldn't really judge how the wires felt.

I'm not sure about trying a different size, though. The bra also had a generally scrunched-up appearance vertically on me and fit oddly in places. The bra felt too wide at the armpit and the "sides" of the cup invaded the fold of my arms. I complained about this same shape problem in the other Freya Active bra I reviewed.

Straps too separated maybe? I noticed uploading my back view photo that they seem extra-separated.

The band also curled up everywhere. I'm pointing at the band curl in one photo. But the band visually lays smooth on several other reviewer photos, so clearly it's possible to get a smooth fit here. Maybe this would resolve in a large enough cup size.

The only comment I have about the wire-- potential buyers should note the gore is VERY high. This is a hard measurement to convey in Bratabase standard measurements due to the instructions specifying "fabric to fabric" - so for sports bras it will rarely reflect the actual meaningful gore height. But check out photos of this bra... those are some high-sitting wires at the center. They didn't even come close to tacking on me so I'm not sure how they would feel if they did.

I'm not sure about this bra. I might add 2 cups and try a 28G if there's one available on Amazon Wardrobe. Or maybe not. If it fit right at the armpits, I would have no hesitation.

This bra is not owned any more

• This one gives a great shape. $72 usd though...I should get into the design business for sports bras, lol, looks like there is $ to be made.
