Customer Reviews elomi Energise Underwire High Impact Sport Bra with J Hook

Being of a bigger bust, finding this brand was a game changer as they truly do offer a wide variety of sizes that I'm unable to find, even in 'plus' size stores/websites. I spend years wearing ill-fitting bras because I just didn't know any better. I was limited to going into a store and spending hours trying to find a size that 'sort of' fit. Which was basically mortifying as a teenager/young adult. These bras fit, are comfortable, and seem to hold up over time. (Though I have had some lemons that pre-maturely had the wires poke out on me.) I mostly use them for everyday wear, but they do seem to work for general fitness activities. The band is mesh, so I don't find myself sweating and the material of the cups is breathable. The cups could be considered a bit 'light' depending on what kind of top you have on over it. Easy to solve with a cami or a light foam pad. (Think the kind they put in swimsuits.) Sometimes the seams on the cups show a line with very light fabrics or t-shirts, but it's not a big deal for me. The big winner for me on these is how the wires are sewn in and the j-hook closure. The support should be coming from the band, not the straps, so having 4 j-hooks pretty much promises that the band is going to stay put, so long as you are sized properly. The wires are sewn in such a way that they have a little layer of fabric on either end to prevent the wire from eventually pushing through the seams. That's usually what kills a bra for me, and a lot of brands really don't reinforce those ends enough to keep the wires inside. Also, due to that extra fabric, the one or two I've had that have popped wires have had enough spare fabric that I was able to mend them and solve the issue. Overall, it seems to happen so much less often with this brand than with others. The only complaint I have is the hook and loop on the straps. I know it's intended to convert to a racerback, which is cool and useful SOME of the time, but the hook part gets caught on my hair/clothes more often than not. If you're not interested in that feature, it might save you some trouble just to use some light wire cutters to snip those bad boys off. I'm really happy that Zappos carries this brand. Certain sizes do sell out fast, but Zappos seems to restock for this brand often enough that I don't worry. If you have a color/pattern you like, snatch it up while you can! Also double triple-check the sizing, as it's listed in UK sizes. (Which I actually prefer to US sizing, but that's just meeee~) Pricing also seems better than on Amazon, which is usually $20-$30 more and varies a lot between different colors/sizes. I'm happy I can just come to Zappos and grab whatever color/size I need and know it's going to be the same across the board because I'm not having to swap between various sellers.

I love my new Elomie bra. I like the fit and material it is made out of. I was glad to hear you still carried this brand. I was afraid you weren't carrying it but glad you are. This is the second time I have orderd them. I will again in the future.

I will be ordering more.

I'm so pleased with this Sport Bra! The fit is great and i love the style!

This bra gives my best fit ever. Great lift, great coverage and fantastic bounce control!

This bra is perfect & I mean that wholeheartedly. So comfortable. So much support. Will be ordering this brand & this style again, often!!! Putting another order in as soon as I finish this review, I know love when I feel it! Ive finally found a brand that was made for me!!

I wear this bra with straps crossed in back. It gives me excellent support and helps with my posture. I wear it most days as an every day bra. Launders beautifully.

I normally wear a 42 D, but I opted to get a 46 and it is truly one of the most comfortable sports bras I've ever worn.

Perfect bra with an underwire

comfortable and super support

Fits perfectly great side support

This Bra feels so good on that I'm wearing it daily not just to work out. I love it!!!

My ABSOLUTE favorite bra! Nothing compares! I am a 38I and I'm telling all of my friends of the same size! This can be a struggle girls! Thanks Walcoal for making it possible! Freedom to all full figured girls!!!

I have very droopy girls as I'm aging and developed to a large bust size at age 11! This bra provides great support and separation. I can wear every day and while exercising!

I am 67 yrs old and a 40 DD bra size. One of the first things I do when I know I'm home for the night is lose the bra. Well I had no desire to take this one off so I kept it on, slept with it on and the only reason I took it off the next morning was to shower and put on a clean one. Iam a fan of the retro chic model for it's support but this one will look much smoother under some of my sheerer blouses.

Thus is the BEST bra I have ever had. I will never buy anything else!

I do a lot of moving around and up down off the floor at work and still have to dress nice...this bra keeps things where they should and looking nice at the same time.

Best bra ever!! Most comfortable, full coverage bra. Will become my all time favorite

it's difficult finding a sports bra that fits me appropriately (36J) without spilling over or lacking in support. this is perfect.

I love the fit. My breasts are better supported than any bra I have worn in my life! The underwires fit nicely against my skin between my breasts on my chest without pulling and it helps add dimension and height! I won't wear anything else! The only con is the center seam across the bust, but that helps keep everything up but doesn't always look the best under t-shirts.

Great coverage..Have had to purchase larger sizes as I have gotten larger and it provides great support and comfort and smooth under clothes..

Great sports bra, supportive and co.fortable.

This is the type of bra Wacoal is known for. Perfect fit and multi-functional. I can wear this bra for everyday and sports! Please stop making sports bras that are flashy with zippers, etc. and stick to this one. A tried and true classic!

I wear a 42G. I did not think this bra would actually work when I ordered it and I am so pleased to say I was wrong. It fits snugly as it should and is still comfortable. The convertible back hook is magical for those of us with large breasts. I purchased the bra to wear under a sun guard while swimming. I haven't used it for that yet so can not review it for that purpose but as for everyday wear...it is great.

I kept this bra, even though it's not my favorite. It's not comfortable, I struggle finding one that actually is. It does hold you tightly. The shape of the bra is more pointy and not as natural looking. The straps are rigid which is good and bad. I liked it for the hook in the back, but it digs into my back. Ugh bra struggles are real...
