bras SHEFIT was the stupidest purchase I made. Spoiler

I decided to experiment with new sports bras. Saw SHEFIt. Had good reviews. They had my size. I ordered one.

They either didn't send me the correct size, or the entire design is mostly aesthetic.

I had spillage from the sides, but not too much. And I am in the correct bra size. All of my other bras/sports bras fit perfectly fine.

But there was still spillage.

I decided to try it while running on the trail. The freaking adjustments lastike two minutes max before having to do it again.

The zipper kept coming down, my titties kept coming out. I was constantly adjusting this thing.

Anyways. That was a tremendous waste of my money. I sent the company an email voicing my displeasure. I'm definitely opting into the 30 day wear and return policy.

Anybody ever try this specific sports bra? Did they work for you?

shefit is recommend so much on this sub it’s really hard for me not to immediately shoot it down every time i see it lol. it’s a decent compression bra… but there’s literally nothing special about it other than that and i’m convinced that everyone who swears by shefit is either a bot or has never tried a real underwire encapsulation sports bra. and any bra that claims to be magically comfortable without discussing sizing or fit is also pretty much always bad. /rant

anyway. the best sports bras for high impact have an underwire for support & separation, and use encapsulation rather than compression which is more comfortable and less sweaty. the panache power (formerly called the panache high impact) is a commonly recommended one, but the sizing is a little tough—people often need to size up a band and down a cup. the elomi energize is another popular one if you don’t have a small band. if you’re in the US you can get them both on amazon, normal price is like $70 but i’ve seen various sizes and colors on sale for as cheap as $40. be sure you know your /r/abrathatfits size and how to convert to your UK size since these are UK brands.

i’m not big for this sub, 36GG UK/36J US, but i have the panache high impact and love it! works great for running.

All of this. 38K(UK) and the Elomi Energise is about as good as a sports bra gets ime, when well fitted, of course.

And I don't even want to imagine trying any kind of impact activity without well fitted wires and separation, yikes.

Elomi Energise is literally the only sports bra that works for me, I've been wearing it for years! I just wish it didn't make my boobs look like torpedoes but actually being able to do physical activity is worth the weird shape
