Customer Reviews Champion The Underwire Bra

Gives me the support I need to run.

Has the comfort I want, but the clasps are super hard to 'catch' requiring me to turn the bra around to work the clasps, like I'm a pre-teen learning how to wear a bra.

Not quite as comfortable as my old (10+years) Champion style which was similar. Sorry it is no longer available.

It's a comfortable wearing bra. Straps sit well on shoulders and material is comfortable. I am not impressed with its appearance , but for me comfort and support in a sport's bra is important.

I have 3 of these bras. They fit really well for a 34/36DD size. Only thing is stitching in the front is itchy.

I like the way the bra fit but I find for a low impact bra the elastic was slightly rough.

An excellent sports bra. I have not experienced the strap scratchyness other reviewers complained of. This bra provides good lift and separation. It also excells at moisture wicking, a definite plus. I purchased this model because the clasp on the straps connect thereby providing the advantage of a racer-back bra without the inconveniences of a racer-back. Unfortunately, the strap connector clip is part of the strap lengthening tab, so if the wearer is tall, or simply needs to lengthen her straps, the strap connector tabs will be way too low to connect and provide any added meaningful support in connecting the two straps. Frown-sigh :-(

Bra was very big, had to return it. It was nice though

The only reason this did not get 5 stars is due to the hook on the back of the straps, that allows you to use as a T, I do not use it and you can't take it off....They fit great, and are comfortable. I wish they made these bras without the hook.

I prefer the original Distance underwire sports bra(that was discontinued), but this one is ok. Just wish it had more elastic in the band. Its hard to hook. But looks great once on. What I love is the underwire support and maximum support for gym workouts and running. I am a baby boomer trying to grow old gracefully!!!

Absolutely love the bra. Very comfortable with great support. It is my around the house daily bra. My only complaint, as with a few other reviews that i read, is that there is mesh on the inside of the cups and after wearing it for a little while it does get very itchy. I started wearing it inside out and that solved the problem.

i have two of champion ,navy and pink . no bounce make me look smaller,iv tried many sports bra, this has been the one that fits me the best im a 38d so the 36-38 dd fit good .the only thing if i could modify this bra it would be to shorten the wire between the boobs ,come up alittle high and bends .love the look under my tops and it drys fast ,i do alot of raffting and swimming and now look for a diffent color

I am an old school champion sports bra advocate and have been disappointed in other brands (and champion styles) that just did not lice up to what I was looking for. I am a 38D AND of a certain age, so I love how secure I am in these bras. No bouncing around, yet not smothering either. The added bonus are the fun colors!! I bought the pink and blue first. And I just purchased the black and gray!

Fabric wrinkles at the breasts but holds up well. Very good support best of all it doesn't make you look as if you're wearing a unibra!

Cup size is a bit larger than expected but overall great bra, hard to find supportive running bra that minimizes "bounce"

I bought this a few weeks ago and i wasn't sure what to expext because ots difficult to find a sports bra to run in. I have a 34 dd and i need loooots of support. I like the fit and i fit, support it comfortable. It seema to bw a bit of a minimizer also which is a plus. I like that i can can use the hook in the back for more support and i can do it myself. I usually need help from my husband . Easy on and off! I would recommed. !!

I really like this Sports Bra. I'm usually a 38-40C and figured #5 would be the right size....and it was! It's comfortable and gives good support. I've made the switch from racerback Sports Bras to the traditional back hook and I like how I have a smooth back, not all lumpy which is how I feel in a racerback.

I have been buying underwire athletic bras for > 35 years from Champion, and my "go to" is the Distance 1.0. But I get so very tired of white, beige, and black. Really, really tired of white, beige, and black. But I won't play tennis without underwire support for my DD girls. While this bra is slightly less supportive when running than the Distance 1, it is also cooler and fine for the courts as it is mostly sprints. I would rate support between Med and Max. But it more than makes up for it with the wonderful colors, which I can wear when not working out. ! I just bought my 4th bra. Thank you!

I purchased 3 Distance Underwire Sports Bras a couple of weeks ago. I like the option to have the straps connect for a racer back bra. The support is good. Champion made an underwire sports bra a couple of years ago I liked better than this, but I have a large chest and need support plus a wire. My only concern: the material is itchy when I am sweaty and hot, which is not good when I workout.

I have a small frame and after having a baby, I am a 34DD+. Regular sports bras just weren't going to cut it, but I found most sports bras' straps were too long and didn't adjust small enough to hold the girls up. These adjust well and hold me pretty well. There is still some Movement and the material is very thin.... so if you're cold, everyone knows!

I only have it 3 stars because I'm just not a fan of the cups not having padding. It is great quality and fits, I just prefer to have reinforced cups per say.

It's ok - somehow one size is too small but the next is too big; women need sports bra with FUNCTION not fashion and this tries.... bring back the original Distance 1.0 - that was strong function. Difficult to find similar out there.... we don't need X straps or nonsense -- just a secure, well fitting bra.

I love this bra, BUT it advertises a hook in back to make t-strap. I have purchased these in the past with said hook. My order came and no hooks? I called for replacements, which were sent quickly, but again, no hooks?

I'm very tough to make happy with a sports bra. So far, this is the best, but I'm not in love.

This runs big. The band is vey loose and the cups come down the rib cage quite low.
