Customer Reviews Brooks Maia Back-Adjustable Medium-Impact Sports Bra (C-E) | Moving Comfort

Support and a nice cross between the uniboob and divided look. I'm a 36DD. I do find that the band on this bra is small. It's definitely a snug fit in that regard. I like the two part bra system. The soft underwire inside give the breasts support, separation and lift. The over "one piece" smooths out the lifted breasts for a less uniboob look. I look like I have two breasts, not one while wearing this. The real test? How does it support my breasts? I'm on my fourth Maia. My breasts don't bounce around in this bra. The front does come up higher and I have larger breasts so this is a trade off. Do I wish it were lower? Sure. If it sacrifices bounce control and support? No way. I do like the way the bra Is cut so that I don't get chafing on my sides. I have run several half marathons and a marathon in this without chafing. The colors are sometimes kind of "huh." But it's under my running shirt so that's less of an issue. I'm overall pleased with this bra. Until someone comes out with a bra that supports this way this one does and looks better, it's me and Maia.

Super supportive and very comfortable. Those uniboob athletic bras from Target just weren't cutting it. My girls had gotten too big for that style and it was also pulling on the back of my neck uncomfortably. This bra is great and I will be ordering another one. The trick is (because I went to a running store to get fitted, they just didn't have my exact size) order up on the band but down on the cup. I know - sounds cray cray but it's true. I normally wear a 38D but got a 40C. Love it.

I love yoga but most sports bras do not do the job in inverted poses when you are a 36DD.This sports bra supports, is comfortable, and is high enough that I don't pop out during down dog or any other pose. I highly recommend it!

I have these in several colors. For me they work. I am DD and very hard to find what feels right. For whatever reason, this brand and style works great. I have tried other Maia items and they were awful. The fit and size work great for me. I cannot run without this bra on. 36DD, 5'8", 160ish.

This is the best sports bra that I have ever owned. I plan to order a few more. The fit is great and it is super supportive.

I LOVE this sports bra. It is the only sports bra I wear now! I have 6. I'm a fitness instructor and teach all types of fitness classes. This sports bra is perfect because it isn't low cut so my girls aren't saying hello to my members when I do a dead lift or shaking it in my Zumba class. I am 5'9' and a 34DDD, I order a 34 DD so that it keeps my girls locked in place. It has great shape for your breasts, NO UNI-BOOB. This is the best all over support. I do wish sometimes that it was a racerback but then it wouldn't be as awesome as it is. I have tried probably 15 different sports bras and this one is hands down THE BEST!

I've been buying Moving Comfort Maia Bras for years and recently needed to buy more. I was not disappointed. I wear a 44DD and it fit fine.

I love this bra. It's been the only kind of bra I've worn for probably 2 years now. I love the support and the cami top; it is a very modestly cut bra. However, I do not like that it is hard to fit. I have tried many sizes on and have had a really hard time finding a size that is perfect. My last attempt I wore for a little bit and thought it was perfect but as soon as the tags were off and I wore it for a full day the underwires were poking me and even causing bruising. So now I have a relatively new bra that I hate wearing. I am ordering more in the next size up but if those don't work I'm going to have to move on, which I hate.

This bra provides great support and coverage. It's hard to find a bra with this much support.

I SO agree with what SO many have said. It's the bra I wear 95% of the time - DAILY! I've worn this bra in navy, black, pink, and white for over a decade. PLEASE bring it back in LOTS of different colors!!!! My old ones are ratty and need replacements ASAP! I've tried other styles and brands and there's nothing else like it for this 36D!

This is the only bra I've found that actually supports and holds me in while running - I don't have to think about it which is the best bra to have. For reference, I wear a 34DD in this sports bra, 34DDD in other brand sports bras, and 34F regular bra. I am very upset that brooks is discontinuing this bra - I've tried the new brooks options and they aren't as supportive/are uncomfortable - Also I'm not able to hook the cross back bras behind my back (not sure who is able to do this).

I have worn this style for over 20 years now. Before that, I was doubling up bras with poor effect. They last for a long time without loosing effectiveness. Very sorry that I can no longer find my size. Please don't discontinue this style. The underwire preventing uniboob is one of its better features. As a DD cup, I wore this for three marathons.

Love the fact this is a hook sports bra vs the over the head. There’s a lining bra within the bra, which I’m not a fan of, because it looks wrinkly from the front, clearly, I don’t fill them properly.

I really like this bra, it provides nice support when running and gives a nice look. It's hard to find running bra that's not racer back. It does run small - I am 36D/DD and usually it's the cup size I'm off on never the strap - 36D cup fit but usually I use smallest clasps but the larger closure clasps were tight. I plan to order 38D to give more comfort

Whole I have yet to run in it, it fits pretty good for being larger chested. The strap around my ribs seems a bit snug (as with all the Brooks bras), but the rest fits just right. My only concern is that there's a lot of seams and I just hope it doesn't cause major chafing on the road.

Really comfortable to run in! It's always a challenge for me to find a comfortable sports bra that holds me in without cutting off my circulation. My only minor complaint is that it is hard for me to fasten. Not a lot of stretch and apparently I have short arms!

I am a 34D and struggle with finding sports bras that give me support and cover the cleavage. I do yoga, cycling, HITT and kickboxing and hate having to worry about everyone seeing too much so I have been trying to find a sports bra that has a high neckline. This sports bra is great, it covers the girls so I can do yoga and not worry about bending over and fits like a regular bra. The straps are fantastic and you can adjust the band strap. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it does not have padding. I usually go with padding so I'm not showing through but other than that it is a good bra!

I use these bras for everyday wear, as well as exercise. I find the wide straps and padded support band a necessity for comfort. The soft material does not scratch or itch, like cheaper materials do. When I bought these, you were out of most colors in my size - 36 ddd. I hope you are not discontinuing this style!

This is a great bra for a high impact workout with the girls. They stay put during planks, push ups and burpees where with other bras they start to slip out of place. Really like this bra. It’s my second in this style.

After searching high and low and even getting caught in a few overhead/clasp racerbacks in dressing rooms, I was relieved to find an open back! I would give this 4.5 stars because it is definitely full coverage and holds my 34E chest in pace while doing high impact, but it doesn't stop them from moving completely, which is what I was hoping for. I do love that the neckline is high so when I bend down, I don't come spilling out and it can be worn all day, so you could just go from work to the gym w/o having to change into a separate bra. One down side is that the fabric not going to keep you "modest" through t-shirts in cold weather. That said, I have tried on SO many bras which claim to be high impact and/or for runners and this is the most secure of them all. Wish they came in more colors bc I need a few more of these!

I thought surely this bra would fit, but it doesn't. It is a great, well made bra, but I think its cups are designed for a the full rounded bust of a young woman. I am disappointed, but even going one size down from my regular, the cups were too big. The bra itself is well made and though firm around the body, comfortable overall.

I really love moving comfort, their sports bras are awesome. I only have it a 4 instead of a 5 because it didn't give me an option to rate size. I am typically a DDD so I got an E because my size was not an option. It isn't as supportive as my other ones. I hesitated ordering online because I could not try it on. Lesson learned.

I am a 38DD and have tried many sports bras. I initially ordered the Moving Comfort Juno bra, but I did not like the "V" neck shape it had. I felt like I was going to pop out of the top of the bra! I sent it back and ordered the Maia instead. Much better! It has underwire and the lining inside is stretchy. I did not have the uniboob. It was hard to get on, however. I had to fasten it and then put it on over my head. The only negative was that I was starting to pop out of the sides, and when I readjusted, it gave me a funny shape - I do not know how to describe it. I guess it made my chest look huge and torpedo-like. Overall, however, I was happy with the fact that I did not get cleavage from wearing this bra. I will probably order more.

I am large chested and I own 5 of these bras. I measure a 34GG but mostly wear a 36DD in regular bras. This sports bra gives me the best movement control that I've been able to find. My only complaint is that over the long haul the hooks and eyes on the back tend to fail. When paying this much for a bra you want it to last. Large chested woman need sturdy hooks and eyes due to the stress being put on them. I've had to buy new hooks and sew them on myself. I don't want to turn you away from ordering this bra though because even so - I still think this is the best bra to contain me. I will continue to buy it. I've even been known to wear this bra under nice clothes when I want to lift and flatten myself and not appear so large chested.

I am very, very fussy about sports bras and this one is pretty good. It comes up fairly high in the front, but that feature doesn't add as much support as I would like, though it does add a little more modesty than most sports bras. The bra runs true to size -- I usually wear a 32D or 34C/D and bought this in a 32D.
