Customer Reviews Brooks Dare Cross-Back Bra

I didn?t like the fitting. I took measurements and bought it but the fitting was not right.

Way too small. I couldn't even get it over my head.

I am a 34D and although the material of this bra is comfy, there is no support esp. for running. I never made it outside on this bra...I tried on, jumped in place and saw so much movement that I took it right back off and returned it. Love Brooks but super let down with this bra!

I wanted to love this bra so much, but.... I was looking for a pull on sports bra, but this is not it. It has excess material that is bunching under the arms. Since I am "only" using this bra for spin classes and strength training I thought it would be ok and I kept it. After the first ride and workout I realized it is not working so well. I am really bummed as I have washed and worn it and don't have tags anymore to return it. I do highly recommend the Dare Scoopback bra instead.

Rubbed inside of my upper arm raw. Do not like padding

Horrible. It would only be good if you have a super small chest.

It does not support well at all. I am a true Brooks fan and have always worn their sports bras. This one just simply does not support well.

Had to return because very little support for 36D. Wish the straps were adjustable. The under arm material was very excessive and flared out.

This is in no way high impact. I don't even want to risk wearing it to run. I was excited to potentially have something that was smooth, but there is no support at all. I'm pretty disappointed. It's going back.

Did not live up to description. Did not fit well even though it appeared to be correct size. Returned it immediately.

I am a 34D in the Juno bra and have worn that to run for years (since it was moving comfort brand). Since they are discontinuing that bra, I ordered the Dare to try. The fit was poor which is not surprising since they size it in C/D. I had so much bounce walking in my bathroom that I didn't even bother trying a run. Looks like I will be looking to another brand for sports bras.

I was excited to try a bra made specifically for runners but I ended up very disappointed. I tried it on a 10 mile run and felt the chaffing by mile 5. I have never had under breast chaffing this bad before. It’s a good thing we are in quarantine because I can’t wear a regular bra until this heals up.

I was really excited to try a running specific bra however this one chaffed bad under the breasts. I am a 36C so I bought a 36CD and tried it out on a 10 mile run. I could feel it chaffing by mile 5. I've never had chaffing this big nor this deep. I am really bummed that it didn't work well for me.

Terrible fit for me. Returned it.

I was so looking forward to this being my next great bra. I'm a long-distance trail runner and spend a lot of time in my running clothes these days, training for a 50 miler. Unfortunately, this bra has let me down- and I paid so much for it! My breasts are not secure at all in this bra- it would be embarrassing to run again while running. Pls do not purchase if you are looking for a high impact bra for larger breasts.

I wanted to love this bra. It fit great, the material was soft, and it was easy to get on. However, it had no support. The upper part had nothing to stop the bounce. Very disappointed. I am a C cup.

I really wanted to love this sports bra! It is soft and comfortable. However, there is NO support. I wear a C cup and this bra did not even have enough support for daily wear--let alone running! Very disappointed. But there is huge potential in the design for the back straps.
