Rated 3 out of 5 by MangoMomma Supportive, but very snug
The good news is that this is very supportive and comfortable. I didn't get any of the binding or chafing that I usually get with sports bras.
The bad news is that it is very difficult to get on and off. Much more so than an average sports bra. I wear a 36B bra size and bought a large and getting it off almost requires assistance.
I think what contributes to both the good and the bad is that the elastic is much less forgiving than in the average sports bra. That makes for good support when on, but doesn't leave much room for stretching when putting it on or taking off. So don't buy this unless you are limber.

After reading the reviews and following the size chart my sports bra was a perfect fit! I LOVE it! I was in desperate need of a new one and I am so happy with my purchase from LL Bean.

I returned this item because it was too small. I ordered an XL and it was chokingly tight. I wear a 40B in bra size. However, in terms of support, it was very, very supportive, good for high impact sports.

I found this bra to run very small. I ordered the correct size and almost got stuck in it. Order up a size.

This item ran so small that I was unable to put it on & have returned it. I am a 38B & ordered the XL, but I do have broad shoulders. It appeared to be well-made & sturdy, but just not the item for me.

I'm a runner so I need a bra to fit and support. This one does both and I love the fact that it snaps in the back. Yes, it fits tight but a true compression bra is suppose to. I have tried so many compression bras in the past and after a few washings they became very loose. I bought the correct size according to the chart. Will buy more.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Shutterfly Not as great as I had hoped
I ordered a large which should have been plenty large enough, since most items I wear are medium and sometimes large. In this case, the large was very snug. Plus, the fabric does not give (stretch) enough to make it easy to get on and off. Very awkward. Provides great support once I survived the ordeal of getting it on.
