Runs a little small. Not as comfortable as the Dare Crossback but still a great bra.

Great bra for phone and keys, but I have to wear another bra underneath - the seams rub me raw at the collar bone

I love this bra SO much that I bought three - but I had to buy three because the bottom elastic, though cute and sleek, doesn't seem to be very resilient on the daily wear, and stretches out over time. I love that I can carry my phone between my shoulder blades (and not pulling my shorts down), and would run in this bra every day if it wasn't a decision between suffocating or my boobs literally falling out the bottom of the bra. My weight fluctuates +/- 2lbs or so depending on the season, and this bra doesn't respond to those slight fluctuations. But I truly love the convenience of the pocket and generally everything else about the bra that I keep using them...and make stops to manually tuck my DD's back inside the bra. Hah! Would love to see this pocket feature in a different style bra, or a different elastic band on this exact bra.

This bra is very comfortable and attractive, and I'm glad I own it. However -- and this is the reason I gave it just three stars -- it is not supportive enough to be a run bra. I wore it on one run and realized there was still too much bouncing going on to adopt it as my go-to. I purchased a Shefit bra for running instead and am going to keep this one for lower-impact exercise.

The sizing on this is WAY off...I usually wear a 34D so got the 34 C-D and the band was way too big. I ended up just taking it in at the back so it somewhat works. I do like the fact that it has pockets and that the cups are removable (sometimes I like to do runs in the summer that include a dip in the ocean, so it's nice not to have that extra material to soak up water). That said, your bra offerings used to be so much better than the ones now--bring back the Rebound Racer etc.!

I love the idea of this bra and the design, but after wearing it a few times, there is no way I can run in this. It's not supportive at all. I love the high neck, but the fabric stretches and becomes way too loose. I like it for casual wear, but wish I could find a high neck bra to run in.

Doesn't fit all that securely. High quality material. Not really a good style for large chested women. Decided to keep only because of the pocket features.

I measured and ended up with a bra that was too big. I took tags off and wore it so to late to return. So I think it runs too big.

I really like it except the band is way too large. If you all could correct that one thing, it would be a great bra. Maybe make it Adjustable w hooks.

Sizing didn't work for me, so I returned it. I got a 32C/D, and the band was extremely tight, the chest area was also a bit too tight. I then tried on a couple of different options sizing up, and those were too big. The 34 band was so loose that it did not sit flat on my torso at all and sort of just hovered there. For reference, I normally wear a 32C in bras, a small in sports bras, and my under-bust measurement is 28 inches. If the band had been more forgiving/stretchy, it probably would have been ok. Even though it is a very comfortable fabric overall, it's gotta have a bit more stretch to it!

First of all, the material was amazing! I?m 40DD and when I put it on, it was instant uniboob! There was no support just bouncing on my toes. The band was too loose on me as well. I did like the fact that it was a pullover sports bra as those are hard to find for large chested and I did like how it fit my shoulders.

I wanted to love this bra! Pockets and a high neck are two things I can almost never say no to. However, as a D cup runner, it just would not have enough support for me on the run.

For reference, I'm 5'11, 150 lbs, and ordered a 32DDE. I like the idea of this top and was looking forward to running comfortably without a shirt in the summer. Once I figured out how to put this bra on (sooo tight), it felt very secure around my rib cage but I'm not sure the material will have the support I need for distance running and the side boob is an issue (Please bring back the Juno!). I plan to keep this for lifting and cross training, though, because I like that I don't spill out when I bend forward. The pocket in the back is also a little awkward and my phone sits weirdly on my spine, maybe it's just not for me.

At first, I loved this bra, so much I bought 4 of them. They are comfortable and supportive UNTIL the bottom elastic wears out and I find myself pushing my breasts up and back into the 'cups.' It's not a question of the wrong size, because I have tried different sizes. The materials, while comfortable just wear out and then the bra is not only not supportive, it's almost non-existent. I'm disappointed, because I thought this was my solution to sports bras.

Bring back the quality of Moving Comfort that you bought out please. I'm now hoarding my old Juno bras until I can find a suitable replacement, which this was not. The material is good in the sense of comfortable and holds up well to sweat and movement, except for the tag which rubs my back raw. NOT DURABLE. After only two wears (or ~12 miles total), the elastic is already splitting out of the band. Further, I'm petite and need adjustable straps to account for 2-3" of extra material in the straps. The force of the bounce created a pain-point in my shoulders resulting in stiff form. The concept is great but the execution is cheap and disappointing.

I have a complicated relationship with this bra. I'm on the bustier side (36F) so I'm used to sports bras not quite doing their job. However, I was looking for one for mild-moderate activity (I wear it for fieldwork or speed walking) and LOVED this bra when I first got it because it minimized my profile and held up well for low-impact movement. I bought both 38 DD/E and 36 DD/E and kept both because at first, the 36DD/E was on the snug side (which I preferred for speed walking) and the 38DD/E was the perfect fit (preferred for work). After about 6 months of wear, the 38 DD/E had to be retired to a sleep bra because it just kept stretching out and is no longer very supportive, while the 36 DD/E has stretched itself into a minimal-impact-only level of use. I've noticed that this stretching-beyond-the-point of return seems to be a recurring pattern in the fabric used in the last couple of years by Brooks' sports bras; I have bras in a couple of other styles with a similar fabric that have also met the same fate of getting downgraded from high/medium impact use to low/no impact use after about 6-12 months of once-or-twice-weekly wear. As someone trying to be conscientious about building a sustainable wardrobe, it's incredibly frustrating to find a bra that fits/functions perfectly at first but loses its elasticity/shape to the point of uselessness despite taking care to hang it dry after washing to extend its useful life.

Wayyyyy to tight. You need two or three sizes up for sure. I had to give it away. I am usually a medium and this did not fit over my head.

Gave me terrible chafing under my breasts. Wore this bra for a marathon and thought that was the problem but have given it a few more chances and even with short runs it has still caused chafing to the point of bleeding. Really love the pockets and high neck so I'm sad that I can't wear this.

I don't really like it. It is much tighter than I would have expected (after being so happy to see it in my size) and my nips really hurt while running, which doesn't happen with any other bra. And - it doesn't fit my phone which was the whole reason I bought it! At least it was on sale.

I am a 34 C and this bra gave me the WORST chafing under my breasts, to the point of bleeding after two 4 mile runs. Listen to the other reviews about the chafing! I am giving it 2 starts because the support was great.

I bought this sports bra at a Pacers Running store to replace/supplement some of my pocket sports bras from Outdoor Voices. I wanted desperately to like this sports bra and have worn it multiple times including in my most recent marathon. The pocket is extremely difficult to get a phone in and out of and I think would benefit from a top seam to have something to hold onto. And the material, no matter how much anti-chafe I put on, chafes the under breast region. That being said I think it is a great design but could benefit from a few tweaks -- it is supportive!
