As us larger chested ladies will know, bouncing around in an exercise class requires a good deal of support for our chests... I've had this style of Panache sports bra before but as I've recently lost some weight (thanks to the gym!) I went in for another bra fitting. I have this in a 32E, but it's now far too big. I was fitted into a size 28FF and very happy to find that the sport's bra fits in this size as well - with some styles I find I have to go up in band/down in cup size.

Living in NZ it is IMPOSSIBLE to get J cup sports bras. This arrived and I put it on straight away and love it! For a sports bra it's great to have 2 boobs instead of the mono-boob that most sports bras give you. Went 10 pin bowling as well and it didn't chafe or ride or dig into my shoulders!

Definitely does the job and I particularly love wearing it as a racer-back. Keeps you in place, supports very well and allows you to exercise without worrying whether your boobs are going all over the place! My only issue is that it is quite pricey. Nevertheless, I would definitely would recommend this.

I need the 36 for the cup width, but whereas usually this means tightest hooks, this I can wear on the outer ones, so there's a bit less give in the band; the cup likewise I generally have a touch of loose material in the G (but smaller gives me quadriboob) and this is perfect, so again less forgiving than a standard cup. Great for me, but if you're pushing the limit of your size, this won't have the give for you. Style-wise, this is almost perfect. It shapes well enough that I can wear it under work clothes before heading to the gym and not look 'lumpy', the underwrire is completely unnoticeable and everything is cushioned and comfy, it envelops me enough that I don't have to worry about exercising in those droopy tanks that start flaunting décolletage after twenty minutes' exercise, and it supports without rubbing or squishing. Only complaint is the boring colour (pink is the only real fun option, and that's been sold out forever!), would be great with more range.

I had a fitting today as I haven't had a sports bra for a while but have been advised that I should wear one for yoga. This feels very supportive with no spillage at the top as it comes up quite high, possibly could be worn as a cropped top too for someone younger. Great help and advice from Julie in Chester.

This is a very supportive bra, best sports bra I have ever brought.

I've had this sports bra for 6/7 weeks and it's already coming apart! Underwire is poking out and the material on the Underwire has all come apart. The hooks on the back are coming out! I don't wear it much twice a week! For the money it's rubbish!

I've just come back from taking this bra on its first test outing - a 4.5km run - and can testify that it's SO comfortable and supportive, and definitely worth the money. (I returned two rubbish sports bras to M&S for the same price as this one, and I'm glad I did!) My Panache day bra is a 30E and I was fitted as a 30F instore for this one, but it fits perfectly and I feel securely held (but not squashed). Particularly impressed by how well it covers the top of my breasts without making them sweaty. It's also not constricting my ribcage. Would highly recommend!
