Customer Reviews Champion The Underwire Bra

I purchased this bra as a substitute for another Champion bra that is not in stock in my size anymore. Unfortunately, it was stiff and uncomfortable even after a couple washings. It was scratchy and was overall too much fabric that did not breathe. I am an active person and this was just not comfortable.

I bought a couple of colors of the new Distance 2.0 sport bra, but am very disappointed. I really like the Distance 1 bra but it only came in black, white and tan. I and many others have suggested that the add some nice new colors. Which they did, but they also changed the material, style and sizing. It is now itchy, fits wierd and runs large! So sad about this! We wanted the exact same bra, just more colors!!

I bought two of these bras, a size 3 and size 4 since I was not sure of my size, purchasing online. Both bras have a great fit, but both have very itchy stitching around the top of the breasts that made my workout uncomfortable. If Champion can correct this, I would purchase more.

I purchased this bra thinking it would be as comfortable as the ones I've bought in the past. The stitching on the underside of the straps rubs against the skin. Thus is quite irritating and uncomfortable. I plan to keep, but will not purchase this style again.

It is so hard to find an underwire, high impact, convertible strap bra. My regular brand got discontinued so I picked up one of these in store. Fits well, looks nice and seems supportive but there's one MAJOR flaw. Women know when you convert to a racer back you have to loosen the straps to compensate for the change of position. So while in theory the j-hook is a nice idea it's not practical. Only a contortionist would be able to hook and unhook it while it's on. But util the bra is on you can't gauge where you need to adjust the straps after converted to a racer back. So if you can't reach to adjust while it's on and you don't have someone to adjust and help you after it's on how are you suppose to adjust correctly? Ask a stranger at the gym? Wear it too tight or too lose? This one needs to go back to the drawing board. A different type of convertible strap maybe. Or at the very least a hook that isn't attached to the adjustments that's so out or reach.

Missing the hook to make this a racerback! This was my main purpose for this purchase! I have 3 old one's in this exact model that are in need of replacement!

Sizing is way off! Runs two plus sizes too small!

Don't buy these bras. I've worn Champion underwire sport bras forever but these are not good quality. I bought 4 of them and 3 of them after only wearing once the plastic hooks broke. One I went to put on for the very first time and I pulled the strap over my shoulder and the plastic hook broke into two pieces! I had never worn the bra and had only laundered it. I will definitely pay attention when purchasing bras in the future and look to see if the straps are sewn into the band or attached with cheap hooks.

This sports bra is not very supportive, the material is rough and scratchy and the bra overall is not form fitting and comfortable. I would not purchase again.

Too small. Was returned

I did not care for this sports bra, I returned it because there is excess fabric on the tip of the breast area and it appears awkward. I successfully selected a different style to meet my needs.

The claps for the straps bent the first time I wore it. The fabric over the cups isn't smooth.

There was something in the fabric that made it scratch on one side. I tried the muse and white ones. I was disappointed because I like The support this bra offers.

I've been buying champion sports bras for more than 20 years & always loved them. I was so disappointed with these bras. The material is scratchy. The cup had to much material on the outside layer. The material then was super tight on the top side of the breast that it flatten you out & then where the breast are it was loose, so it made you look deformed. I like the old version underwire sport bra that champion had. I would NOT recommend this bra! What a waste of $$$!

This is my favorite bra it is so supportive. When I received it the straps hook were missing from the top so it didn't fasten. I was really disappointed so I returned. Not sure if they are discontinuing the top hook but it is really needed for support.

The seam above the top of the cups is unbearably scratchy. I loved the original double distance with a seamless cup!!! I will never wear these if only for a few minutes!! Bad design. Sorry champion.

I ordered one planning to order more, but there was an imperfection on the top left side which shows as a bulge-wrinkle when wearing a blouse. Not sure how prevalent this is. I usually only purchase champion bras in stores, so this was very disappointing.when ordering online.

The underwires migrate up around the top of your boob. I have to keep feeding them back where they belong. The stitching is itchy. I can't use the back clip because it's impossible to get in and out of. It creates an odd profile of your breast.

NOT a good product compared to previous designs of similar sports bra. Not sure WHO tested and approved, but must have been the designer's Mom? Oooof.

These were the most uncomfortable sports bras I have ever worn. The stitching was itchy and the whole fit was highly uncomfortable. I used to only wear their bras and then they got rid of the style I wore and I have yet to find a bra I like that is like it. This was the closest to the one I used to have but was not at all like it in fit and comfort.

This bra was not comfortable to me. When the straps were let out completely they still would not clip together comfortably.

I really liked the bra when I received it and tried it on. I just tossed the packaging. However, I washed it by itself before wearing it. When I put it on, it had a hole where the underwire poke through only one one side. I've continued to wear it, but have to constantly readjust that one side. Very disappointed in quality.

I too loved the original version of this bra and I found the fit and control on this to be acceptable. I wash cold delicate cycle hang dry my sports bras. After one washing I could not use these anymore because the wires were just free floating inside the bra up. I Exchanged and the second group were the exact same. Now I have three expensive bras that I cannot use. I've contacted the company for satisfaction to no avail .

PLEASE PLEASE BRING BACK THE 6209.. THIS IS A TERRIBLE attempt at replacing the 6209. It fits terrible,the stitching is ITCHY! I wasted money on this bra, but like others said, the return process looks bad too. As of now I am no longer a fan of champion bras. And I spent hundreds of dollars on the 6209 . Are you LISTENING CHAMPION!?!? I sent an email and never got a response.

I wanted to replace my aging Double Dry Distance Underwire Sports Bras, but this new version is not like the old. Please bring back the 6209!!!
