I was searching for new sport bras that were supportive for bigger busted runners that could last for long runs and speed work. This did not fit the bill- there was little to no support and way too much bounce.

It's okay. I wish it had adjustments on the straps to tighten them. I wore it once, washed it in cold water and hung it dry. I'm not sure that I am loving the fabric. I'm going to run in it again this weekend. I really wanted to love, but I might have bought the wrong size. Wish I could exchange it for one size smaller.

Doesn't feel that supportive. The band fits but it doesn't hold me in. I wish it had more lift and support.

This bra is super comfortable, BUT loses support. It's so soft but not very strong at all. I sized down one cup based on reviews/recommendations, but now it is slightly small in the cup area and still isn't supportive. I already wore it because at first when you put it on, it was very comfy. So now I can't return it unfortunately, but also cannot really wear it out in public.

While I was happy to find this bra, I am still wistful remembering my old favorite Moving Comfort sports bra. It was the best bra ever made but it's no longer available anywhere. This bra seems like it will stretch out as I'm already seeing a bit of puckering under the armpit area. It is light and very comfortable with the right amount of support. It's just not that wonderful amazing Moving Comfort bra of days gone by.

Runs way too small. I ordered an extra large size for me, and I can barely get it on.

I like the compression design without pads. This version is ok but I prefer the previous version of the Dare Crossback. I don't like how one strap goes thru the other strap. I loved the previous version and wish you had stuck with that design.

I used the size questionnaire to find out what size to purchase. I was recommend a 34AB. The band is too loose therefore it is not a very good fit. I like the material, color and the no hooks or zippers, but it just isn't working for me.

Great bra for running but it looses it's color after a few washes. I was in lukewarm water with all my other gym clothes.

Good material, fit comfortably, how wore for marathon and caused some really bad chaffing under my boobs becauof the molded cups. Probably my fault for not wearing this for any long runs, keep doing slow mid distance training runs.

I was in love with the Dare Crossback 2.0. After a week of proper use, the material didn't seem to give as much support. I Needed to adjust the bra numerous times during a run/workout because of slippage. The zipper cover rubs my upper stomach.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Not sure why it’s called a run bra. Pull over style and minimal support in the band would make running very uncomfortable.

I don't love this bra. It doesn't have the support that I was hoping. The material feels nice, but without proper support on the sides, I can't use it for running.

I wanted to love this as it seemed smooth and great for a long run. Unfortunately, I wore it on a 20 mile run and it cut me in front and pretty badly on my back. I had even used anti chafing along the edges. Needed to return.

This did not support as much as I thought it should for the price. Also did not like the material and too hard to slip on.

I've been wearing different versions of Brooks' crossback bras for over a decade and have absolutely loved them. I felt similarly about the Crossback 2.0 though it didn't have the snug feel that previous models provided. That being said, I am so disappointed to say that they don't hold up. The band at the bottom has loosened, leading to serious chafing issues. I'm less than a month away from my big race and suddenly very concerned. I'm contemplating purchasing another crossback 2.0 just to ensure I have a snug fitting bra that hasn't loosened up yet for race day as I don't have enough time to try out other options.

A year ago I would have given these 5 stars. I have larger breasts and need really good support, and these were the only sports bras that I had ever found that were super comfortable and fit perfectly. I absolutely loved them and bought several. However, they all stretched out in the course of just a few months. Now my boobs are bouncing all over the place, and I'm chafing like crazy. I can't afford to replace them; I'm extremely disappointed in what I thought were my favorite sports bras ever!

There is gaping on the sides and it is not supportive enough for running.

The sides are complete loose - I don't know what happened to this design but it is awful- I sent it back. I have several brooks running bras that I love but this one is terrible.

The bottom material rolls up while sitting, so required me to adjust a lot. Wish straps were adjustable to shorten. Don't wear and am hoping to donate to someone it fits.

Does provide a no bounce jogging experience. Difficult to get into/out of. I'm pretty flexible but my friend who tried was totally stuck without a second pair of hands. A bit of an helpless trauma experience for her actually. A back clasp might help. I'm actually at the ideal weight for height and there is still a spill over that leads to a 3-4" rubbed abrasion under the armpits . . . is it cut too high or am I flabbier there than presumed? I got it pretty cheap because it is a god-awful brown color so I'm feeling like possibly I got what I paid for.

I really wanted to love this and measured to ensure I ordered the right size. The cups are too big and there's gapping under my arm pits which chafes. Otherwise I love it. Very supportive and soft.

Despite following the sizing guidelines, the bra was too small and was returned. I bought a similar Brooks bra several years ago that was one band size larger and it stretched out so much that it's too loose. I won't be purchasing another Brooks bra. Bring back the Juno!

Material was soft but the straps are not adjustable. They were so short that I could not get the bra cups down where they belong. The bottom band hit me mid breast level. Unfortunately I had to return. I'll stick to other brands.
