Customer Reviews Brooks Dare Racerback Bra

This is a really uncomfortable and very unsupportive bra. I've been trying unsuccessfully to find a bra to replace the rebound racer since Brooks discontinued it and this is unfortunately not it. It does not adjust nearly enough, there is way too much padding, and it's just a really terrible bra.

Cuts underneath my armpits. Neck line is too high. I won't be wearing this one unfortunately, it's that uncomfortable.

Horribly unsupportive. The straps stretch too much. If I tighten the straps to the tightest adjustment the adjuster clasp sits and rubs against my collarbone. Brooks needs to hire the Moving Comfort designers back to create real run bras.

This fit is terrible for my size (34E). I loved your Jubralee model but I can't find it anymore. Bring it back!

Pretty tight around the front of my chest. Very uncomfortable on the shoulder blades, and front just inside of the armpits. Feels like there is zero flex in the strap and when I put my arms down the tightness increases. Loosened straps a lot. Did not like the way the padding looks under a shirt. The sewn seam where black meets grey protrudes a lot and the padding sticks out even farther and it just looks like I am wearing 3 bras stacked on top of each other under my shirt.

fit wasn't great, cut into me in several places, seams were very prominent

I don't like anything about this bra. It flattens and brings my boobs down, which is not a good look! I got the correct size and there was no help with bounce at all. Returned

After falling in love with the Maia bra, and then it being discontinued, I defaulted to this poor excuse of a sports bra. There is nothing right with this bra. The straps do not stay adjusted so you are constantly re-adjusting. And not while running...I'm talking about just walking around the house. They just simply do not stay adjusted to where you put them. On top of that, there is so much bounce. I'm a 38D and finding a supportive and comfortable sports bra has been a life long challenge. The Maia answered that challenge as I prefer an underwire, but the Dare is just plain awful in every respect. I've tried both the scoop and cross-back and one was worse than the other. There is a bounce factor just walking in them. Running would be completely out of the question. So if you have and boobs at all, I would strongly encourage you to look elsewhere. The Dare bra was just not designed for women like us.

Please bring back the Juno bra! This bra is not as adjustable and didn't feel as supportive as the Juno bras that I've been running in for years. Had to return it and still looking for another option.

I picked up this bra in hopes that it would be a good Moving Comfort Fiona replacement. Boy was I wrong. The straps (as many reviewers have already said) don't stay and will loosen when you are working out, which means as you run, you will have less and less support. I've stopped so many times in the middle of a run to re-tighten the bra straps that I have contemplated just sewing the straps in place. (The moment I knew this was the worst sports bra I owned: during a race, I stopped and unpinned part of my race bib so I could use the safety pins to pin the straps in place so they would stop sliding loose.) The front of the bra is cut too high, so if I'm lifting weights or moving my arms around, the bra chafes up against my chest/armpit area. The padding on the bra sucks up the sweat during your workout like a sponge and holds that sweat up to your body rather than letting it evaporate away (if I sweat in this bra, I know I will be removing a soggy bra). If you're busty, stay away from this bra. This bra has been relegated to the "I am out of sports bras so I guess this will do until I do laundry" pile.

Returned it. NOT a replacement for Juno. Issues are with the straps over the shoulders. #1- They are not as adjustable as the Juno. Please get rid of these silly hook ladder things. Bring back velcro on straps that fully open! #2- The material is too silky for the hook ladder clips. If I can get it cinched down, as soon as I start running, the bounce comes back with a vengeance, and the reason is that the clips have slid a long ways. PLEASE come up with a real replacement for the Juno.

Awful. Straps slide and don't stay tight while running. Very sad I can no longer find a good running bra since moving comfort.

No support! I am so disappointed. I have worn the Rebound Racer for years. I was so sorry to hear it was discontinued. I have been looking for a comparable bra with equal support and a racer back with no luck. I'm a 36D. The Dare Racerback was much to stretchy. The straps had too much give and if I tightened them it just made the bra ride up. I have tried so many styles and brands but have yet to find a racerback as supportive as the Rebound. I tried wearing it for spin class but it still lacked enough support. I guess I'm stuck with another bra that doesn't live up to it's description.

How the heck are you supposed to get this on without help? I ordered in my normal size, and gave up trying to get the clasp done up after struggling to even get it over my head... I almost had to cut myself out of it!

As other reviewers have also stated, the material of the adjustable straps slides and you lose support as you are running. Additionally, the mesh material of the racer back has left my skin chaffed, red and raised.

Ft well and was comfortable until I started running. The strap material don't have enough texture so the straps loosen as you run. I bought this bra specifically for support, and it's just not there. Had to return.

I end up sewing the strap so they won't slide while running.
