Customer Reviews Brooks Dare Racerback Run Bra 2.0

Great high impact support for running and jumping exercises - even with my postpartum breastfeeding body. Love how soft and smooth this bra is as well.

Its the only bra I own because it doesn't squish my rib cage. The fabric is soft and doesn't chaffe ever. I hope you dont change it.

The fit is perfect. I like that the cups separate my girls. Being on the older side, my boobs usually get squished into a uniboob in other bra brands. This bra is great for everyday and on my job=gs. I highly recommend this bra & wish I had bought two! The color I bought was on sale a& is no longer on sale :-( Otherwise, these are rather pricey.

Brooks has perfected the sports bra! This design is hands down the best thought out sports bra I have ever used. I can be very particular about bras and over the years I made a list in my mind of features that needed improvement. This bra addresses all of them. 1: Shoulder straps: FINALLY someone has designed a system that gives me the option of tightening the straps as much as needed without topping or bottoming out. Also, the straps can be tightened from the FRONT which means I don't have to take the bra off to adjust it. Also, the straps are thick and comfortable and don't ride too far up on my neck (a feature other racer back bras are guilty of). 2. The back closure: The back does not open completely which means I have to put it on over my head and feed my arms through. I have learned over the years that I prefer this in my sports bras because the ones that open up fully in the front or back inevitably are not going to be tight enough when I start moving around. But most sports bras that provide the tightness I need around my torso are so tight that it's nearly impossible to get them on past my shoulder and boobs. Not so with this bra! The back opening is perfect for getting it over my shoulders and boobs and still locking up super tight around my torso. 3. material is very soft and the lack of excessive amounts of seams and gathers makes for a very comfortable workout. It also drys faster than I would have thought. I use this bra when I'm doing CrossFit, when I hike, when I run on the roads or the trail, when I'm mountain biking, or when I'm at home! have been waiting years for this design and I am so happy I came across it!!

Perfect coverage and support. Lightweight and it is wonderfully comfortable. I love it and have 4 of them.

Runs true to size, easy to put on and remove. Great support and moisture wicking. Very comfortable, washes beautifully and dries quickly.

This is a GREAT sports bra. It holds me in and I also love the high neck.

I started experiencing chafing when running more than a couple miles and ordered this bra because it was sized like a "real" bra. I haven't used any of my other sports bras since it arrived and haven't experienced any chafing since.

I ordered a 32C and it fits perfectly. I had the Dare Scoopback Bra in both the 1.0 and 2.0 versions and this one is even better because I was able to order my exact size. The encapsulation in this bra minimizes bounce without compressing you so much that you can't breathe while running. I haven't found another bra that works this well for running. The hooks in the straps work better than sliders which eventually slip. I also like that it isn't a poly blend.

Great fit, comfortable straps, and solid support!

This bra is one of the best I have used for reducing bounce. It felt tight when I first tried it on but I do not notice tightness after a few wears and it was never an issue during a run. I bought my usual bra size. I use it on it's longest strap setting, maybe because of my height (5'10").

I was not expecting much from this bra but omg let me tell you I ran a 10k in this bra and it was the most supportive bra I have ever run with! I usually have to run with two sports bras but the Racerback 2.0 Sports Bra was comfortable, light weight and there's no sports bra pads that fall out when you wash it. I love the design, especially the adjustable straps with the clasp because it really holds everything together. I will definitely be purchasing the same bra but a different color.

This bra is steady! Extremely compressive and supportive - I can do any kind of running or hiit workout and feel comfortable and held firm. Love the blue color and the fact that I don't have to mess with pads.

I have been a user of this bra for close to 15 years, back to when it was branded as Moving Comfort. The previous model to this one was awful (uncomfortable and not even close to the same support) as the previous models. I was hesitant to try this style and worried that I would be out of luck finding a great sports bra, but I can excitedly say that this new model is excellent. Comfortable, extremely supportive, and flattering. I love the new straps and how easy they are to adjust, they don't dig, they stay in place, and are very comfortable. I would highly recommend this model/style.

I purchased this to replace my old Rebound Racers. It's still the most supportive sports bra I've found, but not nearly as supportive as the older Brooks/Moving Comfort styles. Very odd material too, feels like a wet suit.

It's pretty good for a high support but not the best I've tried. Lululemon high support with cup size options bra provides more support.

I originally tried 32F. I am usually a 30DDD or F. The bra was difficult to get on overhead. I exchanges for a 34F. It fits but is still not easy to get on. I do not wear it for running, moreso workouts and walking. It has good support but is a lot of fabric and seems to allow more bounce than my other high impact sports bras.

Pros: Second skin feel, no rolling of band, specific cup/band sizing, sufficiently supportive for high impact, not constrictive, breathable in hot conditions Cons: X-back being fixed limits fit, digs in, makes taking bra on/off challenging, and contributes to pressure point on back fasteners when in widest position; had run been longer, potential chafing on back fasteners; support is based more on compression than encapsulation, feels like a bra for smaller cup sizes was just scaled up rather than specifically designed for DD

This is a little hard to get on, but once you do it offers great support for larger bust sizes.

Hi Good morning, I found the Racerback 2.0 to be designed very well. However the fit can be more snug. The size I took is my bra size but there is still a lot of room causing excess movement while running. In as much as I love the design I feel I would have to take a smaller size to get that snug fit and little to no movement while running and I have already used up all the adjustments on the back and loops on the shoulder straps. Any suggestions?

I purchased the 36D and it's a lightweight, but very supportive sports bra, however I had to use the first set of hooks on the back or it would have been too tight. Then I the purchased the 38D thinking it would give me a bit more room around the band, but it was way too large and didn't hold me in. Net, net, I returned the larger size. I use it for yoga, weight training, walking & hiking - probably better for hiking/running vs. yoga as sometimes I spill out over the top when doing yoga inversions.

Lightweight and breathable, not wowed. Does not feel as comfortable or as stable as my past Brooks Sports brasand tough to get into maybe I should have gotten the Cross back or Scoopback. I am just under 6 and could use a bit more length in the torso, I am on the last adjustment and could use another one. Purchased the 36C (like my bras and past Brooks Sports Bras) maybe a 38 would have given me more room and comfort.Typically try them on but my local running store does not carry Brooks Sports Brasso tried online.

I wanted/needed a racerback, and overall the fit is good, once I can get it on. I think a bra of this kind needs someone with more dexterity, someone who can get it over one's head and reach behind to fasten the clasps...and vice versa.

As a larger chested woman, these are the only sports bras I have found that can give the support needed even for a long run!
