Maybe it's just me, but the older I get, I'm less tolerant of the bust boosting, underwired contraptions, that seem to leave a permanent cut in my shoulders, along with other unsightly marks.  I recently told a coworker that if my shift didn't end soon, I was about to pull my straightjacket of a bra off, throw it on the floor and stomp on it.  Enough already!  How much physical discomfort do we have to endure for a perky chest.  And, I wear baggy scrubs to work, so my curves are barely noticeable, anyway.

I think the girls in the 60's were right, when they burned them.  The only problem after that was that they weren't banned.  Uncomfortable shoes can make your day miserable, but an ill fitting bra can make your downright agitated by the end of the day --- Lizzie Borden by the end of a 12 hour shift.

I'm spoiled at home because I wear light weight sport, leisure bras, or tanks with built-ins. What I was looking for was a sporty bra that would give me enough support to wear under my scrubs.  When I tried on the first bra, it was an 'ah' moment. It was so incredibly comfortable.  I wore it around the house for a while and completely forgot I even had it on.  I found it offered enough support to wear outside the home, but I wouldn't consider using it for a jogging bra.  I think this would bring out the bouncy in the girls'.

I wear a 38 C.  I opted for the large because that was the recommendation.  I like the large for home lounging, but the medium actually gives me a little more support for work.  I think I'm actually between sizes, but I'll manage.  I have noticed that when just laundered, the fit is more supportive.  As you wear the bra throughout the day, particularly in hot weather, the heat seems to loosen the material and there is a little less support.  This adds to the reason these would not make the best jogging bras.  They are made quite well and the material is substantial, not lingerie thin, like some I've seen. You don't have to worry about showing those little things through your t-sirts.  The stitching is sturdy and they withstand the laundry very well.

I'm going to order two more because every time I find something I like, I later discover it's discontinued.  I hope that isn't the case with these --- that they keep them around for a good while.
