Fruit of the LoomWomen's Front Close Builtup Sports Bra

Perfect for after surgery!
I took a chance and ordered these front close bras because they most closely resembled the bra I was put in following reduction surgery. The front close makes it so easy to put in and take off. And the fabric is super soft and comfortable. Even though I’m pretty much fully recovered, these are still my favorite bra to wear. I can’t stand underwires so these have become my favorite. They prove adequate support while still being as comfortable as a tee shirt.I’m not sure that they would provide enough support to work out in, but that’s fine with me. As an everyday bra, they’re fine.I only wish that each bra came with the inner removable pads. Only one of the three came with them and I’m not interested in removing them and putting them in a different bra, so I just wear one with padding and two without.

Fruit of the Loom quality
I bought these for leisure wear and are comfortable and true to size. The gathers in the front are noticeable through my tops and ok for around the house, but I wouldn't wear for going out. Washes nice and overall very satisfied with this product. Would definitely buy again.

Comfy, fit well, not great support
These are very comfortable, they fit well, but they only provide minimum support. I'm not going to be running down any stairs, but I don't forsee any problems with yoga.Great value! Loved getting two of these for a very reasonable price.

Great Value, Good Product
I have been using this bra for several years. Recently ran into difficulty locating them in the store and when I did locate the price was ridiculous. Kept my eye on them on Amazon and was able to get them at a good price. They are quality, hold up and comfortable to wear. Front closure is great for any one with arthritis.

Very comfortable - Feels like a cotton t-shirt, but no support; may make saggy breasts WORSE!
I have saggy, mom boobs, so if anyone can relate, I hope this review might help you!Upon considering breast surgery, I was told I would need a few good front-closure sports bras. Before then, I didn't even know such bra existed (sheltered, I know).I bought 5 front-closure sports bras and want to compare / contrast them so you don't have to buy so many to find which one (or ones) you want. If it helps, here are my opinions (and I didn't get any of these for free of discounted, by the way - paid full price!):1.) Fruit of the Loom Clasp-front Bra (This Bra) With SIX clasps, this all-cotton bra seems sturdy, but provides little to no support. It's very comfortable like at-shirt and feels much more like a sleep bra than anything you can actively wear during the day if you want your breasts to not sag. It's not padded, just lined with a white cotton liner fabric. With my d-cup breasts, I wouldn't wear it for exercise of any kind, even if doubled up. Best left in the bedroom.2.) Carol Martin Full Freedom clasp-front bra ( Carole Martin Full-Freedom Comfort Bra -36 Black ) which is more of a sleep bra than a sports bra but with a 4.3 stars out of 2,000 reviews, I bought it anyway. Wins the award for the most comfortable, forget you're wearing a bra! But it has zero support and although the lace flap covering the claps is a pretty touch, it does make it a little difficult to hook all 5 hooks with the lace in the way. That being said, it's so stinkin' comfortable, I don't care about the lace problem : I have worn this bra to bed every single night since I received it!3.) Jockey Zip-front bra ( Jockey Women's Zip Front Seam Free Bra, Deep Black Space Dye, Large ) Padded inserts for flattering shape, this bra WOULD have been my favorite of them all because of the no-pinch cloth flap under the zipper, coupled with the silver hook half way up the zipper, which is a HUGE help in trying to zip this by yourself, BUT I found the non-locking zipper to be a pretty major setback! As in, the zipper comes down by itself! I alleviated the problem by wearing another bra under this one and that seemed to reduce the strain enough so that the zipper stays put.4.) Wanayou Zip-front Bra ( Women's Zip Front Sports Bra Wireless High Impact Active Yoga Sports Bras (XL:Fit 34D,36B,36C,38A,38B,38C, Purple) ) claiming to be for "post-surgery" I got the purple one but it is more of a "crayola" true purple than the mauve-purple shown in the seller's pics. I like the zipper covers on the top and bottom which are great for comfort, but a little lumpy-looking under a shirt. The pad inserts are nice to give a little shape and the zipper is amazing for reducing the dreaded uniboob! It is also one of the best for support, but I would still say only low to medium impact for smaller cupped women. As a D-cup, I wear this bra either doubled up with another bra or with a Boobuddy ( Boobuddy Adjustable Breast Support Band Sports Bra Alternative, Pink ).5.) AM Clothes zip-front bra ( Womens Racerback Wirefree Sports Bra, 34C/34D/36A/36B/36C, Rose Red ) - Anyway, this bra is so similar to the Wanayou zip-front bra, that I had to check the packaging to differentiate. Much of the same applies: It has nice zipper covers on the top and bottom for comfort, but a little lumpy-looking under a shirt. It has pad inserts for shape and the zipper reduces the dreaded uniboob! It is also one of the best for support, but I would still say only low to medium impact for smaller cupped women. As a D-cup, I wear this bra either doubled up with another bra or with a Boobuddy.I am also including pics of the bra closed and partially opened, so you can see how much it actually pulls my breast together and it might give you an idea of the strength / support, I hope. Anyway, since shopping for bras when you have "mom boobs" is a tough decision, I hope this review helped!************ UPDATE January 2019 *********************I feel differently about this bra now. I used to use it during sleep, but it is so difficult to close with seemingly a million clasps but worst of all, the bottom clasp is not low enough so there is a cloth flap on both sides that becomes itchy and annoying when wearing for longer than a few minutes. Now, it's a sleep bra of last resort, and then only if I put something (cloth, etc.) between it ans my skin. Bummer.

Good option for exercising after breast surgery
It's hard to find a good sports bra with a front closure, let alone one that will work after breast surgery. I was thrilled to find this 2-pack at such a reasonable cost. The fabric is soft and doesn't irritate sensitive skin. At first I found it annoying to open and close all the little hook & loop closures at the front of this, but it's actually very easy (may not be for someone without good fine motor control) and keeps the bra secure. I would call this a moderate but not high impact bra. If you have larger than a C cup, you may need stronger support for higher impact exercise like running or aerobics, but this would work well for low impact like yoga and weight lifting. I'm a B cup and this works well for all exercise including high impact.

Amazing alternative to surgical bra post-mastectomy
I had a bilateral mastectomy and the hospital sent me home in a surgical compression bra. Once my incisions were healed and the sutures were gone, I was given permission to switch to a less restrictive, more comfortable option.These came highly recommended by an individual in a Facebook support group and she was not wrong. These are so soft and comfortable, like slipping into your favorite worn, cozy t-shirt. They don't irritate surgical incision sites or compress too tightly, they just provide minimal support that you need in the early stages.They also fasten in the front, which is essential, as for some time post surgery, reaching around to back close bras is either very difficult to impossible and potentially painful. They do have several clasps in the front that are easy to fasten; I've since graduated to bras that zip up in the front (for speed and convenience). I'm not sure it would be possible as the bra might not close properly, but I'd prefer fewer clasps in the front.Anyway, while I've healed enough to move on to more supportive/compressive options; I still wear these as they are amazingly comfortable and comforting. I just don't care for doing up all the hooks on a daily basis.

Bastante cómodos
Son de algodón y son cómodos en general. Los compré para su uso post-cirugía y tener mejor acceso a las curaciones. Ahora son mis favoritos, Ya no pienso volver a usar sostenes ajustados y mucho menos de varilla, por lo que volveré a comprar de este tipo.

Bastante Comodos
Son un excelente producto para estar en casa en mi opinión. Soy talla 38DD y compre la talla 40, del busto me quedaron super bien pero soy algo delgada de la espalda y costillas y por ende de esta zona los siento más holgados y sin soporte general, recomiendo que si tienes solo el busto grande compres una o dos tallas menos a lo indicado en la tabla de tallas.

Well made, fits, and is comfortable
Really! The price, comfort and fit of these is great. I wear a larger size because I am plus size. I have had no luck finding comfortable bras locally. And when I do they discontinue them. Plus they cost a lot more. These wash up well, lasted a year before showing any signs of wear, a cost practically nothing in comparison to fancy, name brand sports bras. I ordered a few of these - in different colours - last year and then again this year. Apparently white is my go to colour because the white ones show the most wear. After wearing them every day - for a year! After a year the elastic band around had stretched a bit and they arent white white any more. But I wash all my workout clothes - mostly black - together. Including these bras. I ordered pink and grey this time. I highly recommend them and for the price - why not? After a month or two come back and order a few more. All sizes are not always available and prices fluctuate.

Größe stimmt gar nicht...
Habe Größe L bestellt, die aber viel zu groß war, obwohl ich ansonsten teilweise schon XL bestellen muss....
