Brooks Luxe Strappy Bra

This bra is a winner. The fabric is thick and supportive, it looks sleek in black, and it feels incredibly comfortable. The straps are narrower than my typical sports bra, which had me worried they'd dig in, but they surprisingly don't at all. Very comfortable and supportive. It's held up great in the wash too, and I use it all the time. The only time it didn't perform was when I wore it body surfing in the ocean and was popping out a bit, but that's not typical use for it. During typical use, it works great! I have an athletic build, a double D cup, and I'm a nursing mom.

This bra is surprisingly supportive and comfortable, especially for medium-impact workouts like stationary biking and yoga. I'm a 34D and it fit me well right out of the box. The straps are tight enough to provide real support without feeling restrictive, and they haven't stretched out over time. The fabric quality is excellent. It's smooth, doesn't itch or scratch, and has held its shape really well. Unlike some sports bras I've owned that feel stiff and molded, this one contours to your body, which was really refreshing. It hugs my curves without trying to force me into a shape that doesn't fit. I think that makes it a great option for a variety of body types. I use it once or twice a week for workouts and I'm never in a rush to take it off. I probably wouldn't reach for it on long jogs, but for bike rides, yoga, and similar activities it's been great. It's actually more supportive than I expected compared to other sports bras I've owned. My one suggestion for improvement would be adjustable straps. Mine haven't loosened up significantly, but with different body types in mind, having some adjustability there just makes sense. Otherwise, this is a great bra and I've really enjoyed it. I line dry it like I do all my sports bras, and it's held up very well.

This bra holds up beautifully for both high and low impact workouts, and I love it just as much now as when I first got it. At a 36C, I get great support either way. The fabric quality is excellent and it's held up through wash after wash with no issues. I air dry it, though I don't think it would shrink in the dryer. I wear it weekly and genuinely look forward to putting it on as soon as it's dry. It's become an all-around staple for me.

Very comfortable for all-day wear, but it falls short on full coverage if that's a priority for you. I'm a 34D and typically go for full coverage sports bras, and this one doesn't quite measure up to others I own in that department. I actually don't use it for exercise at all because it doesn't fully hold me in place or cover my chest. Instead, I wear it mainly to work and for lounging, and for that it's great. The straps feel comfortable throughout the entire day. If you prioritize full coverage, the lack of it here could easily be a deal breaker.

High quality bra that's very supportive and great for all types of workouts, from strength training to cardio. The fit is true to size and the materials feel comparable to other high-end brands. I've used it multiple times and it's held up very well compared to other sports bras I have. Definitely worth it.
