AMAZING BRA
I have a hard time finding bras , I normally think of them as torture devices made by men to make me miserable. I have purchased roughly 50 bras in the last 1-2 years to find one that is comfortable and I don’t have to do a bathroom run so I can adjust everything upstairs a few times a day. I quit getting hopeful. A few years ago I found the IT bra but of course, they quit making that style. The only place to purchase it was on QVC and with 3000+ reviews begging them to bring it back, nope.I thought, hell I’ll try it, can’t be any worse than what I have already bought.I received them (always buy two in case it’s “THE ONE”) (I guess I still hold out hope,lol)I try it on and after adjusting the straps and the closure in the back, it’s “ok”. Then I noticed they send a bra extender, (GAME CHANGER) I didn’t think much of it at first but I wasn’t quite comfortable so I wasn’t impressed. I felt like it would come off my shoulders, remember torture device, stuffed sausage, just not comfy. Then I noticed I could cross the straps, (I have horrible back and neck problems, tension, aching, headaches from working at a desk all day) so I let the straps way out and grabbed that handy dandy bra extender and started working the straps and back where I would get comfy.First day was …ok. I was not comfy by any means. But I Never had to adjust it. But the criss cross was too high and made my neck uncomfortable.Second day, I played with the criss cross across my upper back, and really pulled down on the extender, which pulled down on the cross cross on my upper back(where I have pain) EUREKA!The criss cross was pushing on my upper back( not neck) and I used that extender to its full potential! The bra has a 2 inch long place to clasp the bra closed in the back, 4 brackets tall. ( do not know the technical terms for this, bare with me lol)The extender is another 2 1/2 inches long with 4 brackets to clasp it together.I pulled down on the back until I found “THE SPOT” for that criss cross on my upper back and snapped that baby closed. OH MY MY MY GOD!!!! ( I apologize, but the Lord likes when your happy)I went from 5 Am to 3 Pm at work, I wasn’t adjusting straps, I wasn’t tugging down on the back cause it rode up, I did not have to go for a bathroom trip to pull them back up because the bra was sliding up in the front. It has actual cup covers so modesty is A-OK, it stayed in place all day, and the boobs did too!!!My neck did Not hurt because the pressure from that criss cross pushed right on my upper back that I stood up straight without pain. No pulling on my shoulders making me hunch over after hours of sitting.I’m not saying this damn thing is a miracle but for us ladies who are older, and we have more aches, cracks and pops than the cereal, it’s AMAZING!I would be happier if the sides were an inch taller but considering it pushed the boobs up and together and made my back and neck NOT hurt, I’m sold!For the young ladies with none of these problems, I’m sure it’s good for you too lol. 😂

Great bra!
I use shapermint tanks daily. I tried another of their bras and didn't like it at all so figured they aren't for me. A coworker purchased this one and brought it into to work to show me and I thought if give it a try. Hands down, the best no-wire bra ever ever worn! It's smooth and comfortable. Great support. I was concerned that the straps were not wide enough for me, as I'm a 38DDD, but the overall support from the whole bra makes the thinner straps work just fine

Good for a comfy day
Full disclaimer: I am gifted in the chest region and finding a bra that fits right is extremely difficult. Under wires hurt and when I found this I got super excited for it. I love shapermint, and I had high hopes for it. I got either a 2x or 3x, and it came with a bra extender. Overall, the fit was pretty good. I had good support, even without an under wire, and its very comfortable. I feel like the straps could've been better, though. About 2 weeks after daily use they started to wear out. Now that I alternate this bra with another, it's not as bad. But the straps do need to be a bit stronger. There is also these 2 wire like things inside the bra, on the sides between the chest and arm pits, that was very flexible. Which ok, fine...except they kept bending out. This is covered by your arms, but looking at it is annoying and also kinda gets in the way of it being a "perfect fit" type of bra. I think it would've been better if those were sturdier, which I'm surprised they weren't considering this is from shapermint. Overall, I'd say it's a decent bra. Great for comfy days.

Comfortable, but not as supportive as you might want
I bought this bra because I've been pretty over underwires for the last year or so and have been frequently wearing shelf bra camisoles with casual outfits. For the price, I feel like this bra is a pretty good value for a casual undergarment; despite the issues I've experienced I feel that the $35 price point is fair, considering my usual bras generally sell for twice as much. The fabric is nice and buttery, the cups aren't crunchy like some padding tends to be, and the overall shape of the bra lends itself to a variety of necklines.As a former bra fit specialist I was pleased to find that the size chart is surprisingly accurate; I ordered both the size it recommended for me--a 3X--and a size down to try. I usually wear a 38I in a regular underwire bra, and while I think the 2X band would have fit better in the long run, the 3X was most comfortable as far as cups go.The convertible straps are a nice feature. Whenever there's an option to cross straps, I do it, because I feel it helps with support and overall shape of the bust, especially without underwires. With the straps crossed, I haven't experienced slipping straps like other reviews mention, and I feel the overall presentation of the decollete is improved.If you have a larger bust and are looking for actual support like you may be used to with an average underwire bra, you will not find it here. I find that throughout the day I have to readjust my breasts so they feel like they're being held inside the bra. After wearing the bra for 3 days, I noticed that this feeling intensified no matter what finagling I did with the straps or my breasts themselves. Additionally, the band itself became too loose for comfort by the third day, and the combination of loose band + lack of strong support made for an uncomfortable experience. Further, there is light plastic boning in the sides of the bra band under the arms, presumably to add structure, but I noticed that after the first few hours of wear, this boning began to bend outward and cause an uncomfortable little lump that was visible through my clothes--yikes! I am tempted to pull the boning out to see if that fixes the problem. I have yet to wash the bra to determine if laundering clears up these issues.Overall, at this price point, this bra is worth a shot if you're looking for an alternative to an uncomfortable underwire or the "uniboob" caused by shelf bras or sports bras for casual outfits.

So soft! But be careful with sizing
Bras are notoriously difficult to get a perfect fit and I did order up one size, as was suggested on the sizing chart. Got a Large since I am a 36C. However, I wish I had just gone with a Medium as I find the cups gape a little and since it comes with a clasp extender, you can always increase the band that way if you think you are at edge of a size category. Have to say though, it is the most beautifully soft bra material and great as a smooth T-shirt bra. Very supportive and comfortable.
