Ronda Shear bras, I can't be the only one

Depending on the top, I'm a solid 1X, occasionally straying into an XL if that's all that's left.  I have several Rhonda Shear Ahhh bras in a 3X.  These about strangle me putting them on and don't loosen up much once they are in place.  So, why can't she make a 4X and 5X?  Same goes with Breezies, how about some 4X and 5X in this style?  I like the firmness, but just a little relief would be nice.

I have been wearing Ahh as my full time bra for many years now, but I agree with you 100%. I am a 38 C and wear these in a 2X. I cringe when Rhonda says she is a DD and wears a Large, yikes, maybe just on one side !!! Also she says to shop your top, that would be a L for me.

I have a very small band and large cup, when I followed the instructions once, my girls escaped out of the bottom.

 

They are hard for iffy hands to pull on too.

 

Not a winner.

@Shelbelle   I am a 40DD or F  and need to wear 2 for any support.  I can wear both L and XL. They are supposed to be tight and wearing a larger size than needed to get on and off easier is not a good fit for any support.

For more support I size down. I don't ow her bras but that is what I do with sports bras and  lounge bras. Yes when I first put them on they feel tight but they don't bother me like that. Much better than a underwire.

I have that same problem.  I am a 32 full C.  One size is too small; the next is too big.

Even in  2X sometimes I feel like I am in a straight jacket, cup area is fine, but the band is soo tight !!! I know I could never wear a L or XL, I gave all of them to my daughter when she was pregnant. I feel my 2x gives me support and is the best fit for me, I have a ton of them with the modesty pads.

I've heard her say she sometimes goes to a 1x.  I don't understand why she won't manufacture the sizes more accurately to fit better.
