Customer Reviews Brooks Dare Crossback Run Bra 2.0

As a 36DD marathoner, I did not know I could ever love a bra as much as I love this one. It is comfortable yet supportive, moves with me without excess, and doesn't make me feel like I'm strapped in tight - I can breathe in it and still have the right amount of coverage and bounce control. I. Love. This. Bra. Even on my 20 mile training runs - thank you for this. I'm running Boston in two weeks and this is going to be with me.

Excellent fit and very comfortable.

Not actually a runner, but needed a bra like this for my 32A breasts which are saggy and empty after weight fluctuations, pregnancy/nursing and implant/explant. It is very comfortable and puts everything in the ideal position. The encapsulation is much better than just compression.

This bra is the best sports bra I have ever tried and came highly recommended to me by a friend. It's form fitting and custom fits to your chest with enough stretch yet stays very soft and comfortable without digging into your skin. Great for workouts with jumping and running to hold you!

I wanted to start running on the treadmill at my fitness studio. Mostly I do yoga. This works for me great. I also feel better that I don't feel like I'm flashing every time I lean over. This holds me in place, not smashing me down.

Hands down the best and most comfortable bra I have ever owned. If you do not like any hardware and built in padding, this is the bra for you. Note: the straps tend to sit a little higher/closer to the neck vs other more traditional sports bras.

I love this bra! I wear it for my martial arts practice, and it is super comfortable and gives great support even during vigorous warm ups. Best part is that I can get it on and off easily even when I'm soaked with sweat! (Size 34 C perfect fit)

It's the best, I wear it everyday and for any occasion. It's very supportive and comfortable

Love that there aren't seams. I would size down in the band to keep it from riding up.

Fits well, comfortable, doesn't chafe

Please bring back the old design - the band and the closure on this design dont provide enough support for running or HIIT for me. I had to return this one and now Im worried when my old ones eventually need to be replaced, Ill be devastated

Terrible, especially at this price point. The band around the torso as well as the straps lose their stretch so quickly, it becomes useless and with no support. I dont even use it for running, but for Pilates. Took less than a couple of months to stretch out, but too late to return. Sadly I bought more than one, waste of money.

This bra is fantastic I love how seamless it is. Please make it in nude colors!

It provides great support,and looks, and feels great.

Incredibly comfortable sports bra. Keeps the girls up and non squished. Fabric is soft and non binding. I could wear all day if needed. Wear during step class, feel like it holds my chest well. 34DD. I have washed on cold in machine in a lingerie bag, air dried and shape is like new. I will purchase another when there is a sale.

Bra fits well and provides decent support while jogging. Ordered up a band size due to my wide shoulders, but it still stays in place. Straps migrate toward my neck, which gets annoying. Size 36B.

Most comfy sports bra I've ever owned and I've been running for 40 years!

I bought one of these in black & liked it so much I bought another one in lilac. BIG MISTAKE! Although I laundered them the same way (Machine wash delicate, cold water, air dry on rack), the black one was fine, but the lilac bra lost its shape and stretched out so much I couldn't wear it. I mentioned this to a friend who had the same experience with the lilac. Don't know if they are manufactured in different locations with varying contractors, but the lack of consistency means I will not purchase again.

Love it. very tight at first, but stretched out a bit and is great.

The Crossback Sports Bra provides excellent support without that binding feeling. It feels like a second skin and is breathable. After trying out one, I immediately bought two more. I am not a runner, but wear it for Pilates and Barre. One doesn't have to run to love this bra!

Its a lot of bra. I like the bonded edges and smooth seamlessness. It gaps at the side and I dont like that. I have yet to wear it so I dont know if it will rub. The band fits but the cups are too big.

The fabric was nice and smooth, the shoulder straps length seemed OK. The issue we had (it was for my daughter) was that it was difficult to get on and off, and the bottom band was too tight without any 'give'. We went by the size guides listed, but I guess it ran smallish. What would be great with this style, would just have an adjustable band that opens like a bra, and adjusts like one. We sadly had to send it back, but Brooks was very good about returns, and we'll shop with them again.

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 wore this bra on a longer run and the support was great but at the end of the run I was left with a horrible friction burn from the edge of the bottom band. It ended up scabbing over it was so deep. Unfortunately that raw edge ends up being pretty sharp.
