These work fine though I?m still somewhat bouncy. Hard to get on and off due to needing to go over the head, especially when sweaty. But best fit I?ve found, otherwise.

I bought several Brooks running bras to try them out since I was looking for a new brand to try out. Figured I would try Brooks since I love the Ghost running shoes. Of all the ones I bought from Brooks, this was the perfect fit. I am a 36DD and it holds me tight like it should without being too tight so I can run comfortably. Pull it on and then clasp then turn around and then pull the shoulder straps up and you are secured and ready to run.

Fits, does the job but chafes around the armpit.

With such mixed reviews, I was a bit concerned when I ordered this bra. After wearing it for a few runs, I'm happy to have purchased it. This bra has a really comfortable, soft feel. I adjusted the straps to fit me and they haven't moved. There is more bounce than I was expecting, but I was still comfortable, felt supported, even after a long run (10 mi). Bonus, Dare Racerback looks cute under the matching Pick-Up tank. I do wonder how many of the negative reviews come from runners who might need a bigger cup size and a tighter band. I wear a 32C and would agree that it "holds me in".

Brought for my 20 year old daughter. She liked it. Is not real attractive though for a young woman.

Bra size: 36B, normal sports bra size: M, size purchased: 36B. This fit surprisingly well. It?s good for running or going to the gym. The straps do loosen after going through the wash, so eventually they will need to be adjusted, but it?s not too much trouble. I did experience some slight chafing at the front strap seam when I wore it for the first time, but after washing and wearing a couple times I don?t notice it any more.

I love the support of this bra. It is a bit convoluted in putting on, but worth the effort. Great, effortless support.

Been looking for a running bra that doesn?t cause chaffing around my band and this fit the bill. Not as easy to get on/off as ones zippered in the front but I?ll take that over the chaffing.

Pros- easier to get on, can breastfeed but not perfect, comfortable, easy adjustability even while running! Looks less like you are wearing a sports bra, which is nice if I?m combining a workout with other activities in my day, just thick enough to prevent nipple showing but not too warm Cons: closer to medium than high impact partially because the shoulder straps loosen while running, which is the only true con Very good bra overall

Bra is very comfortable, but straps sometimes become loser as you run. I need to start off pretty tight & adjust as I run. Not as good as the Juno bra, but better than most bras.

I have lost 90 pounds over the last 16 months and have tried so many sports bras. FINALLY found the perfect one. It stays in place, great support and easily adjustable.

Great fit and design. I'm not a fan of the ribbon like straps. The material slips through the adjustor too easily. Everything else was perfect.

This is the best sports bra I?ve ever had. It holds me in without feeling like a straight jacket. I have back and shoulder problems and this doesn?t exacerbate those. The only reason it gets 4 stars is that it could be more comfortable under the arms. I?m hoping with a few washes this gets better. For reference, I?m 5?1, 120 lbs and bought a 34C - sizing is perfect.

For the most part I love it. It's comfortable, holds the girls down and is streamlined so doesn't feel bulky. My issue (and admiittadly it could just be my breast shape) is that the cup kinda folds at the bottom. That's an aesthetic issue though. I'm overall happy with my purchase and would buy it again.

The hold is firm, but the bottom band runs a bit tight.. Otherwise a great running bra.

Dare Racerback Run bra was given a test run after I received it free of charge in exchange for my honest review. It has good support for a B cup. Also pretty colors and smooth, molded cups. The only negative was that the straps have a thick edge and rubbed a bit into the front of my shoulders/chest. I would recommend this bra to a runner.

I like the fit, and the closures on the back. So far no chaffing on the back or under the breast. To me that's very important.

I read the not-so-good reviews and bought this sports bar anyway. I am coming from the first generation Victoria's Secret sports bar that was great for the first years (super tight, no bounce), but the bottom band under my breast torn into my skin and left really bad chafing. I read about the 90 day trial so I gave this one a try. First, the bottom band is amazing, no chafing at all and very comfortable. However, I feel like I might have bought too large of a size because where the mesh fabric meets the other fabric there is a seem that rubs on my breasts and has left a little chafing. I am going to try a smaller size to see if it is a better fit and will not bounce as much. Hopefully the exchange policy is not a pain. Current size is 34DD. The reason I have 4 stars and not 5 is the straps do slide while running. I need a super tight bra so the solution is to put safety pins where the straps can not slide and loosen. I had to do this same thing to my old VS bras, so no big deal to me.
