I had gotten to a point where every bra irritates me around the band. I prefer to wear a bra, so I dealt with it for quite some time but it just became so uncomfortable. My lifelong habit was to wear a 34D underwire bra. When I started experiencing this irritation, I tried all kinds of different soft fabric non-underwire bras. Besides the no support and no nippage cover, I never found an ideal. Until this magical, thin fabric, nothing brought that provides weightless coverage and support.It comes with the pads which i usually removed from other bras because I'm already a D I don't need any extra. The pads in this bra are thin so they don't add so much bulk, and they provide great coverage. Honestly, it's perfect even the shoulder straps or so soft they don't dig into my shoulders and yet this bra has great support.I am a very standard 34D, if you go by the size chart on this site, that would make me a medium. I got a large and it fit perfectly. I believe medium would've been too small. So if you're on the cusp of sizes like that size up.I struggle to come up with any cons about this product. About all I can say is it's warm. Of course I'm in Florida so that is something that you notice. Small price to pay
