This review is from: Polar Cardio Sports Bra (Apparel)
Update: After owning two of these sports bras for over four months, I have found myself wearing the chest strap instead of the bras for about half of my workouts. I reduced my original rating of five stars to four stars since the sports bras tend to rise up a bit during rigorous exercise (e.g. boot camp, body combat), and the sensors don't stay against my chest when doing floor exercises (e.g. situps). The sports bras are ideal for cycling and working out on the elliptical machine, since my upper body is stationary for the most part.
Original Review: I love not having to wear a chest strap! I needed a 34D, so I purchased a large. The large was too big around my rib cage and didn't keep a consistent heart rate connection. The large is definitely true to size, as it is advertised as 36". I had the closure taken in 2" at the tailor. I ordered a medium, and it fits well.

Love it!,

I ordered this product because the Polar Chest strap was really irritating to my skin, so much so that I couldn't wear it. I was initially skeptical of this product, but after receiving it and trying it, I'm in love! The heart rate monitor snaps perfectly into place, and I had no trouble picking up and keeping my heart rate on my watch. I will definitely order one (despite the steep price) in white. I ordered a size medium, and it fits just right. I usually wear size medium in my sports bras, and found this to fit snug, but not too tight. Highly, highly recommend this polar product! The only con is the steep price!

Large is NOT true large,

I bought this for my daughter who is about 6' tall, wide shoulders and probably a C or D cup. It doesn't even come close to closing, so my wife tried it on (size 6 or 8 dress, 5'5, 130 lbs, probably 32C - 34C)and it was very snug on her. She is not overweight and is in shape. She said it would be too snug to be comfortable - and she likes her jog bras tight.
Not sure what polar was thinking here - maybe these are for waif like women (competitive marathon runners? Kenyans?). There's just no way a larger female athlete could possibly fit into this product!!!!
Very disappointed in the Polar Techs.
