The fit of this bra is totally different from my normal Triumph bras so, sadly, this felt simply awful!The broad elastic band beneath the cups and the wider shoulder straps both seemed good.Advertised as "non padded", the first thing I noticed was the padding, so I had dimples of foam as if the cup size was too big, even though I'd chosen a D instead of E cup - so I'm afraid I had to send it straight back.This might be wonderful for those who welcome a padded sports bra. However my experience suggests that one would need to choose at least one cup size smaller, if not two ... or maybe go for a JL Fitting to get it right.

I'm 36I and this is the only bra I can comfortably wear all day. I love the wireless support, and how "locked-in" I feel while wearing it. I initially bought these for my 12-hour shifts but loved them so much they've become my everyday bra. One negative thing is that the seams in the middle of the cup show through T-shirts and tight clothing.Additionally, I've bought two different colors from here and both were significantly different. Be careful and look at the images before you buy, as the band significantly changes with the colors for some reason. The color Olive Black is definitely my favorite, and it has a nice, thick band that keeps me all held in place. On my second time around I decided to buy the Black, and realized the band was non-existent, and the ... MoreI'm 36I and this is the only bra I can comfortably wear all day.

For larger, curvy folks like me I recommend getting the ones with the thick, bottom bands.

I’ve loved wearing these bras for over 15 years. However the new design with the wide elastic band is much worse for heavy breasts (32GG) than the old design. The bras in Watercolor and Grey Animal patterns are the old design and much more comfortable for heavy breasts. The ring closure on the shoulders of the new design digs into the skin horribly in a way the rings on the old design never did. The issue wasn’t apparent until after I’d worn the bra for several hours and it couldn’t be returned. I’ve been trying to engineer a moleskin cover for the rings but that shouldn’t be necessary on a bra that’s meant for large cup sizes. This is a big step backward.

I bought this bra along with 3 others for running. I also bought a 4th different bra a few months prior. So lots to compare for running. This is all around the best one of the bunch. The material is comfortable (thin, but just enough padding, tight knit, but just a right/tiniest bit of give). The hook that connects the two straps really locks the girls down for a run. I feel very supported. Really good adjustability of the straps (as a shorty, I need this in spades).One negative is the J-hook is a bit high (which is necessary to hook/unhook yourself), but it puts a lot of pressure on my traps and for a long run, it does bother me.
I've only worn it a few times so far but it seems like a good bra. It's supportive and comfortable, and I've run up to a couple of hours in it. I haven't had any neck ache having it in the racer back like I have with another bra that's similar. It's quite a thick material so I'm not sure if it might be hot in summer and it does mean you can really see the structure of the bra/seams under a vest/t-shirt which I'm not a fan of. I got the same size as my others sports bras and it's a bit bigger than them in the cup, so if you are between sizes maybe go for the smaller one.
Absolutely brilliant bra. If you're in two minds about purchasing this bra, just order it, you won't regret it. I did go up a size in the banding from 32 to 34 and it fits beautifully. Padding in the cups is perfect, not too thick like other bras which make my already big chest look even bigger. The band is really very good, good thickness to it and doesn't cut in. I was worried I wouldn't get the same support as a wired sports bra but really good support and shape. All round great bra. Would definitely recommend and definitely buying more.
I love the panache wireless sport. For some reason - maybe because I'm a little FOB - I need to order a cup size smaller than my normal panache size (like as compared to the envy/jasmine/etc). But I love that panache has firm bands to keep the bra in place and provide support. And I find the medium impact bras perfect for weight lifting and for running around playing ultimate frisbee. The band is a little much on my petite frame and I prefer the panache sport bra styles that don't have the extra wide band. I bought a 32E when I am normally a 32F.
I do serious cardio with LOTS of bouncing around. This bra is awesome. When I use the top hook, the twins barely move at all. It's actually amazing. Comfortable. No uniboob. My only complaint would be that it makes my look too busty for the gym (in shape, not in plunge line). However, if they aren't moving, who cares? I now have 2. Highly recommend for the larger breasted ladies who regularly put a sports bra to the test. Really wish return shipping was free. But I'll take it anyway.
I continue to have to double my sports bras for runs. These reviews sold me on the Marvel wireless. However.... There is a TON of bounce! And that was just running around my yard to test out. Soft material made me contemplate keeping for my low impact active job, but the sides had extra looseness and eventually the band rode up under my boobs. I needed a larger size to cover my chest, but I think this created looseness all around. Weird sports bras and claims of zero bounce are crazy.
It's so comfortable and flattering that is a daily use bra now. The girls stay separated and supported brilliantly. The band is a miracle, snug and lies flat, but comfortable. The straps adjust well and stay in place. And it's attractive. I can strip off my top and feel presentable and sporty. I'm an expert off piste skier which tests the merits of any bra. This is the first that passes every test with flying colors!
