The best sports bra I've experienced so far
I have worn this bra 3 times now and it is definitely the best work out bra I have ever tried on. I am pretty picky, I have never had a serious work out bra before because they are expensive and I've never had one that was actually as good as it claimed. I would rather just buy 2 basic sports bras to wear at once and that is only like $10 and has better support than 99% of the supposed "high impact" bras out there. This one is the first legitimate high impact bra I have ever experienced. I have a hard time with bras in general because I have big boobies but a small ribcage and I'm tall with a long waist so nothing ever fits right. Small sports bras fit around but I get gushing out of the top and larger ones are the opposite, they fit around my boobs nice but aren't tight around so ultimately leave me flopping around. I really recommend this bra for larger busted women. The fabric is pretty breathable, I haven't experienced any chaffing, it holds me nice and tight, the cups are roomy enough to allow for small around but large busted. I also really liked the straps on this bra. They are comfortable and smooth fabric, come to a nice tight racer in the back to keep out of the way of your shoulder blades, easy to adjust, and since the length adjusters are in the front it makes the bra easy to get on and off. So when putting on the bra you can put it over your head and around your waist, then hook the back adjuster together, then pull it up to your boobline, then flip the straps over your shoulders to clip in. When taking it off do the opposite where you unclip the straps first, unhook the back, and then it's much easier to pull over your head. it really is amazing that you can have a bra that holds so tight yet is easy to get off. I also think one of the secrets is that the cup fabric has NO stretch. That's pretty rare in a sports bra I think, but that's definitely what holds my boobs in place so they don't bounce. I find that the band also has great tightness without making it impossible to take a full breath. This bra is definitely a functional high-impact sports bra and not the kind of sports bra that is really more of a lounge bra. If your sports bra is good for lounging, then it's not good enough to hold you when doing high impact workouts.

Best Sports Bra Ever!
Where has this been all my life? LOL! I've been scouring the internet for a comfortable, supportive (not just compressive) bra for triathlon, so needs to be comfortable wearing wet and NOT lots of layers/padding. Finally found it! The size based on the chart is smaller than what I normally wear, but I followed the chart and while it's snug, it's not uncomfortable. Easy to put on and clasp myself. I wore it running a couple times first, then in a triathlon this past weekend and it was perfect, supportive, comfortable. I'm not able to fit my heart rate strap underneath it, so have to tighten that to stay up just below the band but that's fine. I'll be ordering more!

Great for triathlons
I bought the Dynastar bra originally for triathlons on the recommendation of a friend, it doesn’t have padding so it dries quickly, and is still very comfortable. These days I run a lot of Ragnar relays, and when you have to run 3 legs 12-15 miles over the course of 24-30 hours, it’s really nice to have a bra that will dry quickly so you don’t get chilled in a cold clammy bra.I also wear it weightlifting. Very comfortable no matter what I am doing, but the fast drying is still the best feature! I wear a 36DD these days, it’s very supportive and no chafing on the long miles or heavy lifts!

Good bra especially if you can get a good price
This is a good bra, but I just needed a larger size. I tried one cup size smaller than usual because the price made it worth the try, but I had to return it. I own this style bra in my usual size (32DD) and I run distances in it. It is much more supportive than it appears. It's especially good in the summer if you live in a hot humid area. I do not feel that it's worth the full ticket price, so give it a try if you see a better price.

pretty darn magical
Perfect. I'm a recent convert from double plain Champion sports bras or just wearing a sports bra that's two sizes too small.The straps really only have to be adjusted once when you get it, and they haven't come undone, even in the wash. I basically put in on like a regular sports bra, get myself adjusted, then clasp the back. Everything stays put before the back is clasped, so it's no big deal to do and a nice feature for getting the band tight.It keeps me as still as I think any bra would be capable of, I do feel supported, and somehow I don't have a uniboob! How is that all possible?! It's pretty darn flattering for a sports bra! And the material is quite breathable yet absorbent.I ordered the 34F since I'm a 34DDD and it fit perfectly.I've worn it to spin classes and for running on the treadmill so far.

Expert 2 for 1 removal and care tip
I am a slim shouldered 32F and I got this bra for horseback riding over a year ago. Anita makes excellent products and this bra has been just wonderful. It still looks brand new! And I love the vivid green color.I’ll join other reviewers in saying that when you’re hot and sweaty, this bra can be a little difficult to get off, especially when you’re that kind of tired that takes the strength right out of your hands.But I have a tip that will not only make this easier, but will help your bra last longer: Wear it into the shower. There isn’t a darn thing wrong with using gentle body wash to clean your bras, and honestly hand washing them is easier when they’re on anyway. Suds it up then once you’re a little cooler it’ll be easier to peel off. Then you can wash the inside surfaces, hang this bad boy up, and wear it for tomorrow’s workout - you’ll be glad you did because this bra will be your favorite.

Impossible to hook yourself
It’s IMPOSSIBLE to put this bra on. I cannot reach behind me to clasp it. Someone needs to hook it for me which is not practical!!I love the support and the style of this bra and wish I could keep it. But I won’t always have a person to help me hook it. If you know the secret to putting it on, please advise! :(
