The exact ones I got seem to be out of stock right now (https://a.co/d/cBeQUL2) but I found that they have space in them for inserts and I got a multi pack of padded inserts (like these: https://a.co/d/iKFhtq3) also and just put several in each, and that worked well enough for me. I don’t pass at all so it was mostly just for myself so it may not work for you, I don’t know. But that’s what I have done in the past.

Also I tried regular back and racer back and just happened to find the latter more comfortable. I think it’s just about what fits your body the best. I don’t have a lot of experience though. Probably others would have better advice.

does it look weird without the inserts?

[–] anarchoplayworker 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don’t know what you mean by look weird - on me when I look down I just feel flat-chested. But I have a different one without pads and it feels quite nice and quite comfortable.

It’s this one: https://a.co/d/9GZp955

But regardless, I personally don’t think it looks weird.

It’s nice having one that isn’t designed to have the inserts and just lays flat on me and fits snugly. It doesn’t hang loose awkwardly or anything, if that’s what you mean.

I personally use sports bras with breastforms in the pad pockets. I think it's the best solution for me personally.
