Customer Reviews Brooks Dare Racerback Bra

I still can't wrap my head around why Brooks changed out the velcro for traditional slide straps. They do not support or stay put like the velcro did.

I'm hard to fit (32E) and have been wearing the Juno for running for years. With the Juno no longer being made, my local running shop pointed me in the direction of the Dare Racerback as Brooks' latest high-impact run bra. This bra is NOT a good replacement for the Juno; it provides very little support, way too much movement when running. Everything feels more flimsy about this bra. I would not recommend this for running, at least not for larger breasted women. Now I need to find a new jog bra. Brooks, please bring back the Juno!

This one is NOT as supportive as the original Juno, which I use all the time for running and Kickboxing

This was hard to put on and not good for HIIT WORKOUTS. Did not feel that supportive. Really miss the brooks juno bra. It was perfectly amazing, this was not

This bra does nothing for high impact super. It does not compare to the Juno or Rebound at all. Adjusters slip almost immediately and does not offer the super needed for running. Find a new high impact bra because this isn't it. I'm a 32C and did not keep me secure. Do not buy

Not a good replacement for the rebound racer. I tried this to replace my favorite running bra, the rebound racer, and found that the change in adjustable straps would not stay where I set them. I also didn?t find it as supportive. I felt there was too much breast movement while running. Hoping for better luck in the future.

I was a loyal Juno wearer so this was the replacement for that. It does NOT do the job. the adjustable straps come UNDONE while you are running/walking/moving, with the slightest movement. So I am constantly having to tighten the straps while I am running. I contacted Brooks about this problem and they said it is a "known defect" in the Dare Racerback bra. Not cool. I would give it 0 stars if I could - totally useless for running if you have to tighten the straps every 2 minutes.

No support! It just smashes them down and the straps are so stretchy they don't hold anything up. Bring back Juno!!!

Meant for tall scrawny women. That's not me. Unfortunately I am just shy of 5'1". I'm thin - 100# but somewhat "busty" and this bra did nothing for support. I'm with the other ladies- bring back Juno! You can tell from the back that the design is extremely long. I had it as tight as needed to fit me but the plastic loops (on the top back of the bra) were rubbing against the back of my neck, which is just asking for chafing and even cutting into my skin- especially running/playing soccer in the heat!

I have always been a loyal Brooks fan. This bra is so bad that I am writing my first review. There are two primary problems- 1. the D shaped ring that attaches the straps to the T back gets so twisted up and cannot be reached to flatten (for Apple watch wearers- I was so contorted trying to fix the straps that my watch asked me if I had fallen :). The straps/rings then rub throughout my workout. 2. It is almost impossible to get into this bra. I have given up on this bra.

This is not a high impact bra

Only good for yoga and that?s a maybe. The straps don?t stay adjusted. They start coming loose just walking. Not enough support for high impact movements.

I have worn the Brooks Juno Sports Bra for as long as I can remember. I tried this bra and it was no where as supportive and it left significant marks from rubbing. I still have a scar. Brooks, please bring back Juno.

I?m not happy with this bra at all. Instead of holding my breasts up in flattens then down. Is not a comfortable or flattering look.

I miss the Juno! The straps get looser throughout the run, and don't stay tight like the velcro straps from the Juno. For lighter workouts, it is very comfortable, but will not last for long runs.

This bra is awful. Another one in the new Brooks line up that is a complete and utter joke for people with any amount of need for actual support. The metal (hello chafing!) sliders went sideways and would not stay in the dressing room. Where I was basically standing, and not running. Save you time and don't bother to try it on. Save your time and money and don't, not try it on and just buy it, thinking it'll work. It won't. Bring back the Rebound Racer. Bring back bras for people who run and have a chest that needs to be supported for running. That's what the Brooks company is about right? Running support, right? Help!

I was so excited to find this bra on sale at a local retailer and bought it without hesitation because my Juno was worn out. This bra is NOT the Juno. It is way less supportive to begin with (maybe because of the mesh top?) and the straps will NOT stay tightened -- by the time I'm 15 minutes into my run the straps are completely loosened. I feel like my boobs are bouncing all over the place in this bra. I loved the Juno because it was the first and only bra that actually made me feel like I was being supported as a 34DD/E. I am very sad to not have that option any more :( Trust the reviews -- do not buy this bra if you are looking for real support for large breasts!!

Not supportive for largest chests. I am a 34C and the support is terrible. The Straps slip when running, I?ve had to stitch the straps to keep them for slipping but at best I can use the 3 I purchased (before I realized how terrible this bra was) for cycling.

The one star is not for lack of quality. It just didn?t provide enough support for large chest. The elastic in the straps gives away and there isn?t enough coverage in the front. Definitely not the bras fault. Just not enough support for DD-DDD

Brooks, why did you discontinue the Juno (aka the world?d best running bra)? I wanted to like this bra, but the straps are too thin and loosen easily. I shouldn?t have to stop my run to fix my bra. Please bring back the Juno.

I was very disappointed to discover Brooks are no longer making the Juno bra. The assistant talked me into buying this one instead. It is terrible - very little support when running. Please bring back the Juno!

Not supportive for a bigger chest. I wear a 34dd and it wasn?t supportive

Very disappointed in this bra. A few years ago I found the Juno and Fiona styles and was so excited to finally find a bra that?s fits my large chest I?m high impact workouts. Was disappointed to find they were discontinued, so tried this style. Initially, when I tried it on, it was not as comfortable, but seemed to fit perfectly. However after doing any impact exercise or even just wearing casually for a half hour the adjustable straps completely let let lose. The only time I have worn them is for casual use and they always result in my back hurting from the unsupported chest. Unfortunately I bought two of these and they just sit in my drawer unused because they are horrible to wear! Bring back the old styles with the Velcro straps!
