Comfortable, does not dig, doesn?t create a uniboob. Like the material and style overall. Snug and no bouncing.

I love these bras and have gradually replaced all my other sports bras in the last 2 years with the Brooks Dare Crossback Run bra. I have every color and love the support whether I'm running on the treadmill or doing a dance class.

This is exactly what I was looking for in a running bra upgrade. I'm a 34A and ordered the small. It's supportive without being constricting. I just went for my first short run in this, and I forgot I was wearing it because there was nothing to adjust and no seams that chafed. I imagine this would be true for longer runs as well.

I'll be honest, I'm an A cup - I tend to wear cheap bras for running because I don't need a lot of support (and generally I'm running in the dark). I just wanted a sports bra that eliminates the uniboob at the gym or yoga or under my scrubs at work without those annoying pads. This bra is comfortable and easy to wear and doesn't make my (small) boobs look like a smashed lump on my chest. I can't really comment on the bounce factor because that's not an issue for me.

This is my bra of bras. I just bought one of the Crossback 2.0 and there's no comparison. For upper back comfort, this is it! I tend to get achy in the upper-mid back and this bra prevents it and will even relieve it once it gets going. I use this bra for everything--running, cycling, work, whatever I can get away with.

I love the fit of this bra! It hugs to you in a sling shape on each side. It doesn't compress down or push up towards my chin. I love how smooth it is across my back, doesn't cut in at all, yet still supportive. It's so much better than other bras, I got every color.

Finally found the best sports bra. It's not stiff, yet is very supportive and easy to get on an off. Only issue is my size usually sells fast, so I have to catch them when I can.

Best sports bra I have ever bought. Holds them running on the treadmill & has so far lasted great over a year wearing at least 1x week

5'3", 125lbs, 34 C/D. I wanted a pull over, no fuss (no adjusting, hooks, or zips) bra and I found it in the Dare Crossback. I love its cut profile and how it lies flat against my body. I bought 3 to rotate thru and I wear them for everything. I have experienced ZERO chafing in any of my runs (most recently a soggy marathon). I have recommended it to all of my friends with C/D cups and smaller. Brooks, please keep this style in your lineup (pretty please)!

This is it, my new favorite sports bra. I really dislike the new cups that other companies have been designing lately, I don't fit into them correctly no matter the size and there is a lot of spillage. This Brooks Dare Crossback is phenomenal, I just purchased 3 more. The cups are seamlessly integrated into the bra itself so there's no wadded up pads after washing. The crossed back straps means I can adjust everything but don't have to worry about clasps or hard plastic from adjustable straps. It's not the absolute highest level of compression I've ever worn, but it still works very well for HIIT and running. For reference I am usually a 32D/34C, I purchased the 34C/D and it fit beautifully. I may have been able to go to the 32 band for more compression but would probably need to increase cup size to a DDE, as I am filling out these cups more than I normally do. Overall I highly recommend!

I was actually looking for a "relaxing in" bra...Something that I could wear everyday around the house in my comfy clothes. I had to buy online because my local store did not carry my size, which proved a bit tricky because I had to exchange a few in order to FIND the right size. I will hopefully be ordering another, but in a bit smaller band size as I've recently lost some weight. But overall, this bra is comfortable and very supportive for larger-chests.

34CD. Before this bra, even my best bra had an rolled over seam that would chafe my inner cleavage over a long sweaty run. This bra has no seams around the edges, no clasps to rub my back. I wear a 36B or 34C in regular bras, the tighter band holds me close. Problem solved, replacing all of my older bras with this.

I have tried a bunch of sports bras for running and this is the only one that doesn?t chafe, even in the heat and running 10+ miles. I got 3 colors!

Softest supportive sports bra I've ever owned. I was skeptical about the fit as there is nothing adjustable, but the bra fit perfectly like the bra sizes fit. It's super soft and I could probably sleep in it, but it's also supportive enough for HIIT workouts.

I am usually training for a marathon during the hot summer months, and every single sports bra I own causes major chafing. I tried the Dare Crossback bra and it fits really well and didn't cause chafing. It was a little bit hard to get in and out of it, but it felt great while running. I am petite and the shoulder straps fit just right - I could see how they might be too short if you are taller. They are not adjustable.

Perfect! Love how this is not a Razorback! Does not dig into my neck like 99% of other sports bras! Comfort is amazing! I?ve been looking for 7 years for a good running bra. This is it! Bought 5 of them!

This sports bra is amazing- I bought one last year and just purchased two moreZ I hope you never stop making this style!! Supportive without being painfully compressive. So comfortable in could wear it all day. No chafing even on long runs.

I'm a size 38D and this bra is working great! It is very snug but not uncomfortable and doesn't dig into my skin. If you're between sizes I would definitely size up, not down. The girls are kept in check and it doesn't hurt to run at all. I ordered them in 2 more colors.
