Best Bra Ever!!!! Please make more in additional colors. This bra is great for running and intense workout. If you're apart of the big boob committee this bra is perfect. Great support and very flattering!

Wonderful sports bra

Originally posted on New Balance US

Overall this is a very nice bra! It is very supportive without being constrictive or flimsy. It holds nicely and removes 90% of bounce when running. I've had many bras from other companies that only give this much support while suffocating you. But the razorback helps disperse the weight beautifully.

Bring back the Shockingly Unshocking Sports Bra

This is fitting too tight and is hard to take off and put on. The quality is subpar. I don't enjoy wearing it.

I like but I don’t love

Originally posted on New Balance US

Bra has a good hold and good coverage. However, I would say that it runs a bit small and when I go for long runs it does make my back ache a bit.

Full coverage running bra

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've worn this for long runs, short runs, and in the pool. It has good coverage and worked quite well in the pool as a swim top. I felt it is good for short runs since it has a tag on the side that is kind of itchy. For a long run (6+ miles), it chafed a little bit and I prefer other items.

locked-in support

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

Pros: once you have it on, this bra is incredibly supportive. The clasp lets you really lock in the band fit. I have a narrower rib cage and struggle with finding sports bras that are tight enough at band without being too small in the cups or suffocating (size 34 B-C for reference). This design solves that problem! Cons: the sewn in cups are a bit stiff and that stiffness extends around the front to the part under the armpits. This cut into the tendons just under my armpits just a little, but isn't a dealbreaker for me. Also this bra isn't quite as easy to get on/off as I'd expect for a bra with a clasp. I'm okay with it, but if you have shoulder mobility issues, you might want to proceed with caution. Overall this is a highly supportive bra without the over-designed look of most high support sports bras - well done NB!

Stellar Bra!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bra was cute and comfy. Most importantly, I felt secure in it! Pair it with some NB running shorts and you’re off to the races. My only feedback is the cup sizes are a bit big for small chested girls….

Just an all-around great bra

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great bra!! It’s supportive but not compressive. Nothing digs in or rubs weirdly, it just fits really well. I tested it out on a pretty intense speed workout and it held up great - genuinely no complaints. It’s such a good workout staple.

Full support and excellent qualitybut thick fabric

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a high support sports bra, compared to regular sport bras it is not as strechy. Fabric is thick but quality is good! I would say true to size, but maybe I could size up and then use the adjustable strap and bands to get it fitter.

Runs large but feels great

Originally posted on New Balance US

No, I don't recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unfortunately, I can’t speak to how this sports bra performs during workouts because it was much too big on me. It doesn’t run true to size. For reference, I usually wear the same size in sports bras without cups, but for this one with cups, I would definitely need to size down. That said, the fabric feels really nice and soft and it feels so comfortable. The design looks great. I’d really like to try it in a smaller size, especially since I’ve been searching for the perfect bra that offers full support. This one has a lot of potential!

Good, not great

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For me, this bra just didn't hit the mark. The material is soft and very supportive, but the clasp in the back of the bra is hard to reach and the band underneath the cups is a bit stiff for my liking.

Supportive Sports Bra for Running

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bra was super comfortable and stayed in place during my entire run. I have a slightly larger chest so most sports bras are not supportive enough for me but this was very supportive. The adjustable straps helped to ensure that the sports bra fit me correctly.

Supportive- Needs a few tweaks

Originally posted on New Balance US

Yes, I recommend this

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the support that this bra provides and the fact that the straps are adjustable. I wish it was an inch longer on the bottom (longline style) as where it landed on my body caused chafing. The bottom strap is very stiff which is what I think caused the chafing.

Hi there, thank you for your review feedback. We apologize that there was issues with bottom strap. Chafing is not an experience we want our runners to have. We offer a Fit Promise with our sports bras to ensure we find the right fit for you. We will have a member of our team reaching out soon!

Good for high impact activities.

Originally posted on New Balance US

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great for high impact activities like running. Feels very supportive. Took off one star as the fabric around the underarms is a bit uncomfortable/not as soft. I like how there's one small clasp - it makes taking on and off very easy.
