This bra is okay for me (40E) for low or medium impact exercises. For running or something like jumping jacks? Forget it.
Still, I have several for circuit training/weight training days and they are comfortable and provide good coverage.
Be aware that sizing is inconsistent between colors. I have the black and the asphalt -- the band on the asphalt is an inch longer than the black.

I have worn many Brooks/moving comfort bras. This one is marketed as Medium support and I would have to agree. No way would I wear this bra out running or to a bouncy fitness class. I think I'll stick with the Juno (same brand).

This bra shapes you into a bullet chested woman. It also has straps that adjust but do not even begin to be long enough to fit my torso. Therefore not really adjustable. I have many Moving Comfort bras and have been wearing the previous version of the Maia bra for many years. I have worn Moving Comfort bras since they first came on the market. This underwire change is wrong on so many levels. Uncomfortable. Yanks up in the back. Shapes you into a '50s pin-up girl. This is workout wear people.

I have 2 of these bras that are approaching 8 years old. I wear them every day horseback riding, and they are still going strong, but they won't last forever. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make this bra available again! It is so comfortable, supportive and sturdy. I have not been able to find anything else that works for my small ribcage (32) and large chest (DD).

Please notice your review stars for the Maia bra compared to stars for your others. You deleted your superior bra- please bring it back!
I cannot find another type which fits me or is supportive, 36DD, and now my Maias are so old( way pre- covid!) the wires are breaking. I work out in multiple ways daily. Maia has: firm support, wide stay put straps and a front pocket I have put keys, sunglass, tissue, and phone and no one can see them. haha.
The only change I would make to Maia is for the shoulder straps to be able to tighten more/ longer adjustability range.
Please listen to your customers and bring Maia back!

Brooks, please bring the Maia bra back! I have been searching for a new replacement and there just doesn't seem to be one. This bra was a staple for so many women, here us roar! I personally would pay double for it!

This is the most supportive and comfortable bra. The snug fit makes for a no bounce, chafe-free run. Please bring back the Maia!

Please bring this bra back! Been wearing it for years. The BEST for large breasts and small ribcage, as someone else noted. Would rather give Brooks money to make this bra then give another company money for something that doesn't work as well. I'm so bummed out!

I am a long time Brooks runner, with the adrenaline as my go to show, AND the MAIA sports bra my go to bra! I am so disappointed that it has been discontinued and that the other Brooks bras do not even come close to the quality of this one! I have tried the Dare bra and it is not even effective when I am standing around much less to go for an intense or distance run. It would be great if Brooks would start making this bra again!

NOTHING ELSE WORKS as well as the Maia sports bra. I have 8 or so of them. I wear them for my every day bra.
But now I have a big problem...the underwires are snapping. Another went today and now I only have 1 bra left. I have tried on SOoooo many other brands, styles, etc, but nothing locks the girls down like the Maia bra. I can run with virtually NO BOUNCE to my DDD's, and after 2 kids, that says something.
The only thing I don't care for is the gel in the straps. The things I love about this bra are the supportive, firm band with rear hooks (no overhead shenanigans here), the underwire, easily adjustable straps, and a front panel separate from the cups. I can bend over without showing my cleavage to the world, and I NEVER worry about wardrobe malfunctions. This bra controls the bounce better than ANY other bra, before or since.
PRETTY PLEASE, bring it back. Restyle it, new colors, whatever, but keep the durable fabric and construction so that the support is the same. There are lots of customers that miss it.

This is the only sports bra I ever loved. I have 4 of them but they're wearing out. I'm small rib/large cup, hard to fit in all bras. Joining the BRING BACK THE MAIA chorus!

Brooks. Y'all bought the brand, now bring back the bra. The larger titted have spoken. Nothing compares - this bra is perfect. I wear a 40E - have managed to keep one of these for 10 years. Have also spent $$$$ on other bras, but keep coming back to this one. Racerbacks trash my neck & shoulder muscles; wireless feel terrible; uniboob should be against the law. COME. ON. DO. IT.

Joining the others here begging you to reconsider the discontinuation of this bra. There's nothing like it, even the "recommended" replacement is horrible. We beg you - so few have thought of us larger breasted folks and made something so perfect - why are you abandoning us?

There is no way a busty female contributed to the decision to discontinue the Maia. What are you thinking, Brooks? If I don't have a good bra, I can't run. If I can't run, I have no reason to buy your shoes. Please bring back the Maia!!!!!!!! 34 DD

This is a terrific bra that is comfortable not just for running but also for every day use. I really appreciate being able to switch between ordinary activities and exercise without needing to swap a bra. Since it was discontinued I've tried several other bras and none are as wearable as even my old worn out Maias, neither for exercise or every day. Please please bring this one back.
