Fits perfectly to true size. I love that there are barely any seams on it. It is so comfortable! Stays in place when I am moving. Love it!

Best sports bra I have ever had! Most bras don't work unless you are very small chested. This is so supportive and so comfortable

Finally purchases a brooks running bra after a couple years of interest. I am overall happy with my purchase, and was pleased with no chaffing and limited bounce on my run! Will be purchasing again, although may need to purchase 36 cup size as I am in between sizes and 34B was tight

The support given when wearing this bra is phenomenal. I was looking for support when being active and this was a great choice.

Best and most comfortable athletic bra I've found. It is easy to put on and easy to take off after a hard workout. I also like the padding and no inserts to worry about when laundering. I've bought multiples of this style bra

Fantastic bra. I barely notice it's there while also knowing that there's minimal bounce going on. Only caveat is the slight bit of under arm chafe that happens on the long runs- 13 or more. But thank god for body glide!

I'm larger chested - 40DD and my whole life I've had issues trying to find a running bra. I've always had to double bra and triple bra on certain times of the month. I tried this bra out and I've never had one singular bra hold me up like this. I had to go back and buy a second! The straps can rub on your neck a bit, but honestly I don't care because I'm not flopping around. Highly recommend to anyone with larger breasts that needs the support of a full impact bra. This. Is. It.

My lifetime hunt for a supportive, high intensity, lower cut and breathable, flattering, and encapsulating sports bra is over! Fits PERFECTLY - No back flab, digging, or tight band here. I'm shook it actually exists. Compression bras had to do for 33 years. So, I had no support, they never fit correctly, and caused tremendous pain. This allowed for heavy weight on my chest which put pressure on my lungs while dancing and teaching classical ballet, running, boxing, lifting, pilates, barre, hiking, and simply living. After chronic severe back/shoulder/neck pain, (I've sought out every tx imaginable including medical tx, PT, personal trainers, massage therapy, etc.), trying a myriad of inhalers to open my chest up, a misdiagnosis of fibromyalgia, and working long hours on my feet as a vet nurse in specialty care A reduction was on the horizon. Now, I can live my life and finally take deep breaths in this bra. That's crazy for me to say as I've never found a bra like it. It fits like a glove and I love everything ab it. { For comparison: Indoor + outdoor use in humid and hot weather/ 5'7" / 124 lbs / 34D (sister sizes: 32E & 36C) }. PLEASE don't discontinue this bra!

I love this bra! I have been searching for years for a sports bra to replace my Moving Comfort sports bras that are ancient, but was never able to find one that fit the same. The material is so smooth and soft that it feels good even taking on and off. Doesn't give a uni-boob, and doesn't come so high up on the chest that I feel like a nun, yet still provides enough support for my runs (although if they made one with more of a sweetheart neckline, I would love it). This bra looks great under tanks and t-shirts because it's so smooth. Thin built-in padding provides nip-coverage and you don't have to deal with the annoying removable pads from other types of bras that always come out in the wash. Would it be a little bit better if the straps or band were adjustable? Maybe, but it might also take away from its seamless design. I wear a 34 D in regular bras and the 34 C/D in this style fits great.. Will this sports bra work for absolutely everyone? Of course not, we all have nuances with our bodies and this bra is not adjustable. But when it works, it's amazing. I recommend you order a few sizes to try and get the right fit. I also recommend always washing your workout gear in cold water and air-drying- it will make your garments last longer an help them keep their shape. One last thing, I ordered the exact same bra from a high-end retailer and it it was $20 more- needless to say, I returned that bra and kept this one (and ordered more colors)- this is a great deal on Zappos!

I am very happy with my purchase. It's almost like a push up bra for running. There's plenty of support, and I like how it shapes me, even for running. It's not the tight and flat chested running bra, but it does have that type of support.

Great bra! Snug fit, good support. It doesn't stretch a lot so putting it on and taking it off when sweaty is difficult.

It's fantastic. No chafing. No rubbing. The tag said "Holds me in" but i would say it moves with me. There is still movement but not friction or chafing. I love this bra so much that I ordered 2!

I am so in love with this bra. It does exactly what it is meant to do. It holds me in and I do not move one bit. I ordered one after it was recommended to me. I ordered two more today. I run 4-5 times a week.

Great bra for running, gym, and comfortable enough to wear all day. Version 2.0 is much better than the first version for running. However I wear my normal bra size 36B/C for all day wear or the gym but I size down a band size to 34C for running to minimize bounce.

Love everything about it. I had a double mastectomy and was having problems finding a running bra that didn't cause me pain around my scars....Brooks bra's is my saving Grace. I run and do crossfit in this bra and haven't had any issues. Will be buying more!

Love this bra. Not a runner, but a huge long distance backpacker and hiker. This bra is the bomb. So comfortable you don't know you are wearing one. Keeps everything in place. Love, love the material. Wicks away sweat, doesn't stink, and so soft and cushy. Easier to get on and off than other sports bras I have tried. Plus I love the colors. I have a teal and a lavender. The only thing I noticed is the tag is itchy. They need to stamp it instead of having an actual tag. It is long and makes your side itch. I took mine off on my lavender bra as it is a separate stitching and it is so much better.
