Review on SYROKAN Women'S Plus Size Sports Bra: Wireless Comfort, High Impact Support And Bounce Control For Workouts by Tony Hoover

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Affordable leisure bra for DD+ folks

Confession time: I didn't get this for sports, and I'm not reviewing it for sports. I wanted a comfy lounge bra that would keep me supported in my PJs.I wear a 34F/ 32FF - if you also wear such a size, you know where I'm coming from. You buy cheap sports bras to contain the bounce, but you fall out the bottom because some bra designer (probably a man) can't seem to understand that it is possible to have a small torso and giant bosoms. So you look for bras in your size, only to find that they're mostly underwired, super expensive, and not really comfy. Would it KILL you to make a wirefree bra for lounging in that isn't also $60, Panache? WOULD IT?Apparently it would. So I found this one and decided it was worth $20 to see if this would do the trick. It did! Hence the four stars. It hasn't stretched either, which pleases me greatly. I measure 31" underbust and bought the 34F, which is also my Panache underwire sports bra size. Incidentally, I call my underwire Panache sports bra "Boob Prison."The good:It is comfortable for multi-day wear and breathes. How beautiful is it to have a bra that breathes?The band is tight and firm. So is the fabric. I don't bounce, and suspect I wouldn't unless I really got active.The back and underboob are perforated a bit, so the sweat doesn't collect in a swampy lagoon.For a uniboob design, I stay pretty separated and lifted. There isn't a ton of boob-on-boob slithering.None of my breast tissue is left out in the cold, and every last bit of side-boob has a home.The inside is soooooft! No chafing seams or ragged tags. No itchy. Great for sensitive skin.The meh:The straps are really short. I'm 5' 3" and the wide part of the straps sits near my collarbone, and the straps themselves are as loose as they can go.The underarm rides very high, and although it does stretch out a little, it could be uncomfortable to some. I'm OK with it, though, and kind of prefer it to having escaping side tissue.Like every other band without wires, my belly pudge when I sit pushes it into a fold, and that fold is now a permanent crease in the elastic material.So for $20, this is a really good deal if you, like me, are a short, busty girl who just wants a bleepity bleeping comfy sleep bra that does its freaking job and doesn't cost too much. Bonus - you can also wear it to run in.

Pros
  • Flattering and feminine design enhances your curves
Cons
  • The bra may not be suitable for women who engage in water sports or activities
