Sister sizes of 28B
30A holds a similar cup volume to 28B with a looser band: if the band of a 28B digs in, try 30A. There is no smaller band in this chart, so if the band rides up, look for a brand whose range starts at a smaller band.
Small bands with small cups are genuinely underserved on the high street: many mainstream brands start at a 65 or even 70 band, so a lot of what fits you sits in petite-focused or Asian-market lines. Avoid the classic trap of taking a bigger band to find a cup that exists — a loose band gives no support. Look for brands whose size range starts at your band, and use the sister size only as a fitting-room fallback.

What is 28B in European sizing?
A 28B corresponds to 60B in European sizing and 75B in French/Spanish sizing, by the usual correspondences. The conversion changes the band numbering, and from DD up the cup letter too (US DD = EU E); individual brands can differ.
Is 28B big or small?
It is one of the smaller sizes: a petite band with a shallow cup. Cup letters mean nothing alone: a cup only has a volume relative to its band, which is why 30A holds a similar volume to 28B.
My 28B doesn't fit — what should I try?
If the band digs in while the cup is fine, go to 30A. If the band rides up or feels loose, look for a brand whose range starts below this band. If the cup overflows, try one cup up in the same band; if it wrinkles empty, one cup down. Two minutes with the calculator gives you a fresh estimate.
