This is one of my favorite compression sports bras. The labels are too worn to tell what the model number or the size is, but I would guess, from the feel, it's a 36. It is comfortable, and hides well under my clothes. As old as it is, it hasn't stretched out.

Great for sports, especially high-impact ones, but when I wear it for a full day, the band ends up pinching like crazy. This would probably be amazing in a bigger size.

This bra's band runs pretty tight for a 30 (I'm usually a 28). But I purchased this when I really had no idea what size I needed. This bra is really too small for me, and I spill out on all sides. Overall, a nice bra. I'd probably want an underwired sports bra if I had larger breasts (for running anyway).

This bra is not owned any more

Good compression style sports bra. The back has a nice scoop or leotard style. It's wireless, but has a wide, snug fitting band for support. It's double lined in a wicking fabric, keeping you cool. The bra has help up well and hasn't stretched much.

I'd recommend encapsulated sports bras for high impact activity, like running. But this is a good bra for lighter activity, like yoga. My only complaint would be with the velcro straps. If I was doing something like jumping, they would sometimes come undone. Also, these straps are short. I usually have to adjust my straps to be as short as possible, but I kept these straps at their longest.

I really don't understand the fit for this bra. It's not quite tight enough to be a compression bra, but it doesn't do encapsulation too well either. It's doable for non-running activities, but not my first choice. It's also VERY padded, FAR beyond what you need to hide the headlights.

A very comfortable bra to wear for hours, with soft stretchy fabric that still provide great supports It is a very modest bra and covers a great deal of skin. No scoop neck or v-neck shirts with this one. The cups are unlined and made of a double layer of mesh and a slightly stretchy fabric underneath. Unfortunately, the shape of the cups is somewhat unforgiving, so the cup was tight at the bottom but wrinkled at the top. The straps and back are very comfortable for exercising in or even wearing all day. It uses encapsulation to control breast tissue movement instead of compression. The back is a tight 32. I usually wear a 28, and wear this on the tightest hook and could go smaller.

This one does not do the uni-boob squish as much as the Moving Comfort Fiona. Much less adjusting to do far less often. It isn't exactly a super flattering thing, being a H.I. Sports Bra, but it holds everything up and snug so comfortably, as a sports bra for high impact movement needs to. This is my go-to sports bra, although it would only be a perfect one if I got a bigger cup size, as I am just a bit too full for this particular size. It dries slowly after washing so own more than one!

TLDR: Sizing issue due to my mistake, the bra itself is pretty darn awesome for a sports bra.

Fits quite snug, but I prefer that in my sports bras. Compresses wonderfully- again, that is the aim for me in high impact Martial Art activity. Feels pretty good, holds the Girls high and snug, but instantly creates Mono-Boob Of Doom that starts gradual and gets worse after motion. Such a shame- it feels pretty darn good starting out, but that mono-boob can get quite uncomfortable after 40 minutes or so of gradual movement to the center. It also doesn't breathe very well, being a bit thick, but I am kind of sweaty when I work out. After one washes it, it takes forever to dry.

Overall conclusion- So comfy at first- wish it kept the boobs separated! It'll do til I can get a better one.

I just tried on this sports bra from before I was aware of my size. I appears to be comfortable at first, but this bra doesn't work for me at all. The band is too big, and actually starts to slip up and squish the breast tissue. It was always a very sturdy and helpful bra, I really did feel supported and happy in it despite it being the wrong size for me. The straps fold over and latch with a soft velcro, which doesn't budge at all. It does have seams to indicate cups, but they don't seem very shaped to me (maybe that's because this is a D and I'm a G/F cup).

I usually wear ideally a 28C/D in normal bras and was tired of having the standard lululemon bras that were either too flimsy in support or didn't have enough "shape" because the padded inserts would get deformed and move around all the place causing odd boob shape. I also wanted to try a bra with a back that I could close/open, but also with the wide, non-racerback straps because my weightlifting singlet is unfortunately not a racerback. I was hoping based on the pictures that the cups would be a little more shaped and molded but they are just mainly fabric cups.

I own an Alexis in a ... size S (meant for A/B cup) and the band fits mediocre (it's a pullover, super tight to get on, ok stretch but not *tight* when around my underbust, and almost too tight to pull off). I also own a Fiona bra and compared to the Fiona, the shape and support are similar but the fabric is much more sturdy, less stretchy and soft and more firm. The cups are a little more "compressing" than the Fiona, and the band feels a little tighter with more structure.

I tried this Jubralee bra in a 30C based on hearing how these bras tend to run tighter and smaller in the cup. I think I made the right decision on size since the band is just right (it took a bit of effort to reach my arms behind to close this one, band doesn't have a lot of stretch and is pretty firm!), and the cups do contain my boobs very well after a good scoop & swoop. In fact, for itty-bitty-busted me, it's the only sports bra I've tried and owned where a scoop & swoop actually keeps boobs in place because other sports bras are too stretchy in the cup or band.

The only big downside I have is that the cups aren't really that shapely to perk my boobs up much...it sort of flattens them but does give me a little more shape than my lululemon bras, which the padded inserts tend to sag over time, or the standard bras with no padding. I don't feel *smashed* in though, I have enough breathing room but definitely more support and less bouncing around than my lulu size 4 bras (I didn't think I had much boob to "bounce" before but I'm becoming more and more a fan of higher support lately). The straps are also a little widerset than what I'm normally used to in a sports bra so I have to get used to a normal strap setting but they seem to be snug and in far enough to not fall off the shoulder. The other downside is that for some reason there's extra fabric on the inside of the cups...the outer fabric on the cups doesn't really stretch or give much so I don't see how the extra fabric on the inside could give more shape other than just bunching up when I scoop and swoop boob in. I find I have to unwrinkle and spread out some of the excess inner cup fabric once bra is on.

I was a bit weary that the velcro adjustable straps would be loose and would look obviously adjustable but they hide and stay put very well. The 30C is not too high cut (I like having attractive cut bras that aren't too high & full support because I'm pretty petite) and the shape is very flattering to my figure.

My suggestion if you're on the fence about size, definitely doesn't hurt to go up one band since the 30 fits me perfect on the 1st or 2nd hook, and if you're between cup sizes, go up one (I'm on the small end of a 30 C sometimes so this fit me well!).

I wear a 28C/D typically in regular bras and was looking for a sports bra that wasn't too encapsulating without an underwire, but also shapely and higher support than my lululemon bras which are meant more for the 32 band girl instead of the 28-band girl.

Compared to the Jubralee bra, the Fiona's fabric is much softer and seems to be a little more forgiving. However, the shape and support seem to be similar on both. I find the Fiona to be a much more "comfortable" bra overall since I think the straps in the back are just a little more narrow and because the fabric is a ... little softer.

The cups definitely do not have any "padding" so it is possible for the headlights to come through every now and then, and that also means it's pretty compressing and flattening to the shallow chest (but definitely not as flat as some of the other Nike or Under Armour bras out there which have almost no support whatsoever. The fabric in this does tend to perk slightly but not much.

The 30C in the Fiona does run pretty true to size for someone who probably wears a 30C bra, if not just a tad smaller to accommodate my 28 band size. I find the 3 hooks a little difficult to get on due to my lack of shoulder/arm mobility behind the back and only being used to TWO hooks at my small bust size, but I am also consistently on the 2nd or tightest hooks because the band is of course not a 28 band and not as snug as I would like.

The adjustable straps are a nice feature and right now they seem to hold pretty well. Not sure how well they would accommodate a taller busted woman who needs longer straps but they work well with my short torso.

Definitely a nice choice & medium-high impact, I use this for crossfit stuff and it works well. I'm so used to racer-back styles but I find that the separate shoulder strap style wasn't bothersome at all, I forgot I was not wearing a racerback in fact!

The 34 D is too big around the ribs (at the furthest in hook, the band is still too big). Sized down the band and up a cup to 32 DD.

Seriously no movement. Well...there is a little but in comparison to the rest of this brand, this particular model has the best high impact no movement. (Personal change room tests).

This was my first band and cup sized sports bra. It felt miles better than the generic medium compression bras I was wearing, but I still had major bounce issues.

I still keep it and wear it as a lounge around the house bra, since it is incredibly comfortable. It's a great laundry/cleaning day bra!

This is definitely one of the best high intensity workout sports bras for smaller cup sizes. Running doesn't phase it at all.

This bra is not owned any more

I used to wear just stretchy sports bras from Target, until I found this one cheap on Amazon. I love it! Yes, it smooshes you, no it doesn't look good under clothes, but it's so comfortable for running! The band is very firm, but wide, so it doesn't dig in at all. The "cup" material (there aren't actually individual cups) has some stretch, but not so much that it's loose after a couple hours. The padded straps are very comfy, and I don't have a problem with the velcro on the straps coming undone. Women with large chests might have a problem with the velcro straps.
Also, so far I don't feel too hot in this bra, but I'll have to see what it's like come summer.

Having learnt how to measure myself properly, I'm actually a 30DD, or even 28E sometimes. I own a 34B bra because that was my old size, and I bought this bra previously.

I still wear it for exercise, and though the band is obviously bigger than I should wear, it still provides pretty decent support for being 4 inches too big. Actually if it was 4 inches shorter I probably couldn't hook it close. My boobs get totally squished to my chest though, I look totally flat, and this bra has no padding. There is just one thin layer of cloth in front, and that's why I can only wear it to exercise at home. If I'm cold, everyone in the gym will know.

I'll still continue wearing it though, it's of great quality, it did not stretch out significantly, and really encapsulates my boobs so they don't bounce. Definitely a keeper even though it's the wrong size.

My favorite sports bra! It fits great and is very flattering. I use it for running and during Bikram yoga class. No bounce at all, but it doesn't cover you all up and looks great on me. Completely prevents headlights too. Only possible issue is that it has no fastener and getting it off can require a lot of flexibility.
