Please see my review for the black colorway in this style and size.

I really like this sports bra. I find it keeps things stable while running. I have two small issues though, first I found the band seemed to stretch out quite quickly. So I will likely have to go down a band size soon. Second, because of my tall roots the trim along the top tends to cut in a bit, even though the bra fits.

So, this review is for the ODYSSEY PRINT, which I feel is particularly important to note since some of these bras are known to run small depending on the colorway. (Here's lookin' at you, gray/white.)

This particular one seems TTS, stretching only to 31" and that with protests. It might actually be a little TOO small on me, but sports bras are my nemesis; tight enough for support, without being too tight to breathe deeply...? It's a bit of a battle.

Generally I like underwired Panache sports bras. The racerback hook gives me added support for jogging, while unhooking that allows for the range of motion I need to do yoga comfortably. I can't stand compression bras, and there aren't many alternatives, so I wouldn't necessarily say this bra is perfect for me... but I do own several, because it's definitely the best I've found.

This is the most comfortable bra I've ever worn. Which is kind of a bummer, because it doesn't actually fit my shape well, but it's perfect for exercise. I ordered a 30GG first, and that fit my lower projection and overall shape much better, but there was a bunch of empty space in the top, which wasn't suitable for exercise. In the 30G I have empty space near the gore and the bottom, but it is still somehow comfortable and plenty supportive. The construction of the bra also makes it look like it fits perfectly, so that's nice! The straps adjust just short enough for me, and I ... use the clip for higher impact activities and it works like a charm for me. I would buy more if they weren't so expensive, because I love it as a t-shirt bra! The only thing I'm disappointed in is a couple of the bottom hooks seem to be coming loose after less than two weeks of exercise. I think it's a fluke, and easily fixed, but it's still annoying.

If you don't have much upper fullness or have short roots, definitely size down in the cup. I like a very firm band and this one runs true to size so I wouldn't order up a size.

This is the absolute best sports bra I've ever worn! I can now add Lindy Hop to my dancing repertoire because the girls are contained while I can still breathe! I purchased the cup size smaller than I normally get (2 sizes smaller than the Cleo by Panache Neve Plunge t-shirt bra that I need) & after wearing it nearly everyday for a month (it's comfortable enough that I'm considering it to be my everyday go to bra) it has stretched to fit perfectly.

This is the best sports bra I've ever had!!!
It's very comfortable and very supportive, and I felt very secure during my workouts. Practising TaeKwonDo I do feel like I need a lot of support and this one is the first sports bra that left me completely unworried about any bouncing or other kinds of uncomfortable movements of my boobs!!!
So far it didn't significantly stretch out either.

Additional measurements:
Cup separation/width of the wired gore: 1.3 cm
Height of the gore, from bottom edge of the band to the top of the underwires: 9 cm

First, the blue/orange (I think it's called Cobalt) colourway is gorgeous. I'm actually excited to go sportsing in it. I am NEVER excited about exercising. I chose between this and the grey option, but settled on the blue one since it's a seasonal colourway.

It's an interesting construction: it's a full coverage bra, a crop top even, but the actual wired gore ends in the same spot as a balconette, about halfway up from the band. That part tacks, while the wireless upper bit ... does not, but I don't think it's supposed to. The wires are also padded(!) with foam(!) which is a wonderful feeling. Full bust brands, please introduce this to your non-sports bras.

Now for the lesser parts of the Panache Sport. When first putting it on, I instantly felt this wasn't much more supportive than my regular bras. I actually find the band to be a little loose, which, for a bra that is to be used during high-impact activities, is not a good thing. The cups are also too wide, and shallow at the bottom, and when combined with the loose band and my narrow roots and V-shaped rib cage, the result is two unsupported bouncy fleshy pillows attached to my chest. I will be keeping the bra (partly because I spent a fortune on it) after I bend the wires to better suit my roots/ribcage (to be honest, I'm getting sick of this alteration), which takes it from a "Meh" to a "Pretty Good" rating. If and when I replace it, I'll probably size down a band, maybe also a cup, and pray to whatever deity that my tall roots don't make me quadraboob out of the bra.

I knew that there was a good chance the cups would be too big, but the price was right and I was in need of a sports bra so here I am. When the new colorway comes out in July I definitely want to try it in a 30FF, but for now this 30G is fine for my needs.

When I scoop I don't appear to have a problem with the top of the cup but I definitely do on the side/bottom. The wires are too wide and there is also empty space, which is from a mixture of the too large cup and my inner fullness.

The bra itself feels fantastic and serious. It's padded and wants to hold everything. The straps are really great and shouldn't cause problems with digging unless maybe you're doing some crazy repetitive lifting. I don't really wear shirts in public that don't cover my shoulders but I really like the feeling of the j-hook clipped and might wear racerbacks with this just because I can.

Best sports bra ever!
Nice firm band that hasn't stretched out much at all, even with frequent wear.
Cups are fairly high, so do show under low cut tops.
Very supportive, perfect for netball/jogging/anything else I do.
The logo has faded after many wears, but the rest of the bra has held up very well!
