MISSION Women's Vaporactive Sensory Cross Back Medium Impact Sports Bra

Really cute and comfortable sports bra. I got it with the matching legging and it looks so cute together. If you have big boobs this may not be the best bra for you. The fit of the bra is quite different than a normal one. The hole for the underarm goes very low so sometimes it feels like your boob could pop out the side! But I have no tits so I don't have to worry about it. Just warning for others!

This bra is comfortable and appears nice under clothing. I recommend a large size than you would normally buy though. The medium was tight but the large worked well.

Super cute for an accent piece. If you have a “D” cup you can’t workout with it

Good

comfy and cute

When it comes to bras, I belong with the subset of women who prefer sports bras to "real" bras. I was excited to see a crossover/hybrid model that combines the support of a sports bra with elements of less functional/more decorative undergarments. Overall, it didn't work for me, but I think it would be much better for trimmer women.I'll break it down piece by piece:Support: 5 out of 5Great support...the elastic band that goes around your ribs just below your breasts is wider than any I've seen in any other sports bra, and very sturdy elastic (some stretch, but not a ton). The cups were similarly heavy duty, and lined to prevent nipple embarrassment. The mesh overlay that extends from the top of the cups to the collar bone prevents any cup overflow from making unsightly lumps or wobbling.Functionality: 5 out of 5This would perform adequately for moderate activities, just like it says in the product description. This is not a runners bra, but it doesn't claim to be. CAVEAT: the elastic band (which makes the support so great) was somewhat restrictive, so even moderate activity may add to the discomfort, which leads me to...Comfort: 1 out of 4What I love about sports bras is comfort and support. This bra was not comfortable at all. The cups were rigid, and reminded me of Batman's breastplate (hubby thought it was a helmet when I pulled it out of the packaging...). The supportive elastic band made me conscious of my breathing as I sat at my desk at work (the word "corset" kept coming to mind). The shoulder straps are very thin and chafed my shoulders (one of the elements from "real" bras that I try to avoid).FLATTERING: 1 out of 5In the cross back design, the straps attach to the back of the band off to the sides farther than other bras I've worn. Coupled with the tightness of the wide elastic band, this left a weird window, inviting my back fat to sneak out when I wasn't paying attention. The breastplate cups were topped off with a mesh panel that obscured any cleavage created, so if that's your purpose in wearing a bra, it's foiled as well. I'd classify my build as average for the 30-40 demographic (5'6", 170lb, 38C), and this was not a flattering bra.In the description it mentions that it could be worn solo or under a "flow tank." I think that sums up the market they're designing for: fit, moderately active women who feel comfortable wearing a sports bra with no shirt to the gym or in a yoga class. I wore mine under a shirt and an open knit cardigan and wasn't comfortable with its impact on my figure or my breathing.

Wish I could buy more.

This is a padded sports bra for very pre-teens or extremely small women. The bra is constructed with a large front panel that rises all the way to the neck with shoulder straps that cross over and attaches to a 3-piece panel in the back. These are all mounted on a 1 7/8” foundation band. On the inside of the front panel are pockets for the padded inserts, which are removable. The mesh fabric in the front panel is 84% nylon and 16% spandex, while the remaining fabric is 40% unspecified polyester, 40% 37.5 polyester, and 20 spandex. The Mission logo appears on the elastic band in front under the left arm. The garment was made in Vietnam.This bra arrived with a large dark stain just off-center, visible inside the original packaging. I washed the bra, but the stain did not come out. I tried wearing the bra, but it was the most uncomfortable bra ever. I measure 31” across the chest under my breasts and have a bust size of 34”. I tried size Medium, but it was at least 2 sizes too small. Unstretched, the foundation band is 26 3/4”, so it is no wonder the bra was so uncomfortable. The foundation band is also so wide that it extends far below the sternum, into the floating rib area. That makes it hard to do anything but shallow breathing, which means the bra isn't great for aerobic sports. Also, I had gall bladder surgery 8 months ago. Although I haven't had trouble wearing other bras since 2 weeks after the surgery, this bra is so low and so constricting that it puts incredible pressure on the incision area. I actually had gall bladder inflammation symptoms for 2 days after wearing this bra for just 1 day. Another comfort issue is the tag, which sticks into the left breast. At least that can be removed with a pair of scissors. This bra is billed as removing sweat, but you won't benefit from that unless you take the foam breast inserts out. Overall, this bra might work for extremely small people (BMI<18) who want to flatten their already flat chests, yet have the option of adding padding at the same time. Be sure to order 2 sizes up from your usual size.
