Fruit of the LoomWomen's Front Close Builtup Sports Bra

It is hard to find a sports bra that doesn’t force the wearer to have to contort themselves trying to get into it. I was excited to see this bra had front closures, but I did worry it might decrease the level of support. I have worn the bra to exercise, and the level of support was fabulous. In addition, the straps do not dig into my shoulders/neck. I have purchased two more. Great value for great comfort!

I purchased these bras due to a shoulder injury. They were a great price. The sizing was exact. They are easy to hook although there are many hooks up the front. I did read how in some reviews people complained about the bottom hook area bothering/irritating them. I did experience that bothering on the first day or two but after that it didn’t bother me anymore. The thing that disappoints me the most is that the elastic on the sides and back just wants to roll after a couple of hours. I bought these for a daily bra due to my injury which I would not recommend. I would find something a little bit better which I did. However, to use for working out or for a short duration they are good for the price.

I bought these hoping they would be all (well, mostly - I know they can't be 100% if they have stretch) cotton, as I had a breast reduction recently and have been having issues with a lingering allergic reaction from the surgical glue and the heat/sweat of a Minnesota July in poly/nylon sports bras is not helping. The *outside* of the bra is mostly cotton but the interior of the cups/sides is lined with a poly/nylon/spandex, which would be good if I wanted these as actual sports bras. This is totally my fault for not thoroughly reading the description.That being said, they seem actually pretty well made for $12.50 - especially because it is a two-pack! I thought I was buying one bra, but there are two - one black and one white - in the pack I got. I'm returning to purchase the all-cotton front close bras from FOTL instead but if you're not looking for all cotton and want a cheap front-close sports bra, this would be a good option. Not sure how they would hold up with a lot of wear/washing but if you need something only for a short time or occasional use, I'm sure they'd be fine.Sizing: I would size up from your normal band size - I am usually a 34, sometimes a 36 if I want a looser fit, and I went with a 38 in these and it is just right. My cup size after surgery is (I think) a C. Any smaller I think would be uncomfortably tight.

I have a 34" ribcage so I ordered 34 and 36. Both were way too tight after my breast reduction so I ordered 38 and 40 and both are comfy, but I prefer the 40. For reference, I am about 34DD or DDD after surgery due to swelling. The fabric is soft and lovely! And great deal for the price.

Fits true to size and fits well. Great for those of us with upper body mobility issues who want a racer back bra. Ordered my regular size. I won’t be running anywhere soon so this medium impact bra suits me just fine.

lLove my new bra. Really holds me in and reduces the look of my breasts--perfect for my breast reduction! Wish they were 100% cotton, but the hold would not be the same.

i purchased these bras to wear after my double mastectomy. love them! fit was great and they held my flaps of skin pretty dang good! they helped hold my expanders in place as i got them filled. after reconstruction surgery i had to purchase some more...i needed smaller sizes but they've done great with the new girls too! definitely would recommend!

Very comfortable. It fits well. Front closure helps.

As recommended by others, I bought these bras for post-mastectomy surgery and they have been a welcomed addition to my post surgery wardrobe. There are 10 hooks on mine (size 44), so the front stays closed very nicely. I did size up as was suggested, and the fit is perfect for me. I have only one breast now, but it still fits great on both sides. The scrunching design adds dimension to my flat side and I like that too. Super comfortable, and the straps don't slip at all. Wash well too. I will not be exercising in this bra, so I can't comment on support, but for around the house and around the block walks, it is great.

for referencei am 195 lbs5’8” talli bought a size 42i like the comforttheyre not super thicki wish it had more loops for extending the widthbut theres only one set of loopsi bought these as my breasts are growing fast during pregnancy i think this will be goodi will buy again if they start to get too tighti love the front closure aspect

El producto es de excelente calidad, 100% algodón.A simple vista parecen grandes, pero es sólo por el corte que se asemeja más a un top que a un sujetador.Me basé en los comentarios para pedir los míos y puse un número arriba de mi talla, pero la verdad es que no era necesario, siento que si hubiese pedido mi talla cumpliría perfectamente con su función, pero no me quejo ya que el soporte que te brinda es bastante bueno.Sin duda volveré a pedir, pero esta vez de mi talla.

Got this product in the mail today and it’s exactly what I wanted for post breast reduction. Size up!!! Pre-surgery I was a 36F. For post surgery we were aiming for a bigger C cup. Base on other reviews I ordered the 42 and they fit very nicely. Once you have the right size I don’t think you can go wrong. They’re very comfy and don’t dig into the breast fold like the surgical bra the surgeon and his team gave me. I haven’t tried sleeping in them yet but have a good feeling about them. Will likely buy more in the future.

For starters I am a 46DD heavy set. Not sure what is with the negative review saying they're thin and no support. It's not a "sports bra", and it's not a lifting/push up bra either. This is no issue if you're wearing as a bedtime bra, as us ladies (at least myself) with larger chests like wearing something at bedtime to stop our breasts from pulling/tugging and hurting when side sleeping. These are GREAT for bed and lounging around the house. Unlike a lot of front closure bras available, usually they only have 4 hooks in front and are low cut which means the moment you bend forward to pick something up, or turn over in bed, your ladies are falling out. That doesn't happen with this bra style, it's got 11 hooks and sits high like a v-neck t shirt. The hooks don't dig into my skin at all and if I'm bloated I can undo a couple bottom hooks. The fabric is "thin" but sturdy, I have ones over 7yrs old that still look great. Again, it's not for lifting or to stop bouncing during exercise although I find doing housework and yard work they're very comfy and hold my heavy breasts up enough to stop the dreaded underboob sweat.You'll never beat the price for how comfy these lounge bras are!It does somewhat give you the "uniboob" but not horribly. I love em!
