Post Surgery Sports Bra
Lovely and comfortable once you get it on. Struggled considerably with pulling up the zip and I’m a year post surgery, unsure how people would manage if they were only just post surgery. Had to buy the next size up just to get the zip to meet. Once on very supportive and comfortable though.

Perfect fit and comfortable
Bought this to replace 3 older ones I bought a few years ago, it's perfect for high impact weight training I do. Maximum hold after surgery and still beneficial years after

A struggle to get on!
Once on, this is a supportive bra but my goodness it is a two-man job to hold it together in order to zip it up! Almost impossible to do on your own I’m afraid.

Not true to size
I bought this following surgery. Initially I found it very comfortable but after wearing for a couple of hours I was left with red and sore marks wear the straps were. Next size up resulted in the same problem. Hoping to get a refund when I phone as bra no good to me.

Post surgery bras
I brought my right bra size, I found this bra very supportive after surgery, I tried them on a week before a found it a bit tight. But after one wash I found them comfortable. So happy I brought them after surgery they where amazing never had any problems.

Great high impact sports bra
I must admit that I haven't had surgery but was looking for a reasonably priced high impact sports bra. This is without doubt the best one I've ever bought, it certainly keeps everything I have under control whilst jogging, doing jumping jacks etc. I will definitely be buying a couple more.

Zip is very difficult to do up
For a post surgery bra this is not very practical. I had a mastectomy with reconstruction 5 months ago and I have other post surgery bras. This zip is near impossible to fasten for someone who doesn’t have the strength of a normal person as a result of surgery

Too small!
I bought my correct size having purchased all my sports bras from M&S and getting fitted by their staff. Ordered this online. Couldn't even zip up, runs very very small. I even checked the label inside to see if the sizing was incorrect as it felts like a bra 3 times smaller than my normal size. Very disappointed given the price.

Disappointing
Having finally found the correct size, I was disappointed to find the bottom of the zip is so small it was almost impossible to pull it up - even when not wearing it. It has been returned

The zip!!
I love the bra but the zip is virtually impossible to do up.
I had my surgery a year ago, there is no way someone post surgery would be able to do this up, they would be in agony!

Good but could be improved
Good bra, very substantial. Not for everyday comfortable use unless you’re exercising. Would be greatly improved if there was a clasp at the bottom of the zip as there is on other m&s front zip post surgery bras. Also the zip is stiff which may not bode well for long term.

Great bra for breast augmentation post op support
Bought two of these for breast augmentation post-op support. Well made and snug any supportive fit. Better quality and value for money than another post op bra I bought from a well known specialist post surgical bra manufacturer.

Difficult to do up and zip shows through clothes
It is a two person effort to do up the zip, the designers need to consider that implants are not as flexible as real breasts. Once the zipped in, the zip track sticks out as does the covered zip tab so is visible thorough all my workout tops. The size also runs small so glad I read other reviews and purchased a larger size than normal. Once fitted the bra is comfortable but overall disappointing.

Low Quality Zip
It is simply impossible to pull the zip up on this bra when it is under tension due to being worn. I spent 15 minutes trying and gave up.

Good post mastectomy
I’ve had a Diep flap operation and this is good as a second stage bra about a month after surgery.

Not for me
I returned this as I found it too difficult to fasten it. I find it almost impossible to fasten back-fastening sports bras but this is no better. I used to wear the pocketed version of the full cup embroidered bra to Pilates and yoga classes. I found it gave me plenty of support and held my prosthesis in place. Please start selling this bra again.

Post Op Sports Bra
Good quality sports bra providing good support after having surgery. It can feel tight around the back at times & it's a relief to take it off for a while, I ordered a size bigger (36C rather than 34C) & it was a good job as 34 would of been far to tight, but overall a good quality bra

Post surgery Bra
Had hoped would be easy to put on, with a zip possibly being easier than hooks & eyes went up a back size than normal but very difficult to do up. May be fine for those with a smaller cup size, or who have help to put on.It would be supportive if you can manage to get it on!

Small
Bra fit is very small even when doing up a band size Very difficult to appose the zip ends and then to zip up.
The idea is good but doesn't work for me.
Will be returning the item.

Keeping it simple
Simple, stylish, supportive, this is the one and only sports bra I have ever found that actually does its job! Just remember to flick the zip down when you've done it up! Very comfortable too.

Fantastic support.
Bought 2 of the Post Surgery Extra High Impact Sports Bra to wear following my breast reduction surgery. So happy with this product. The support is fantastic and my surgeon was also very happy with this for a post op bra. Would definitely recommend.

Disappointed
The sizing came up very small. The material could have been much softer and it was not stretchy enough.

Mastectomy Sports bra
You definitely need the next band size up from your normal fitting. I’m about to purchase a 2nd one.

Impossible
This needs to have hook and eyes at the zip, bottom middle and top otherwise it is impossible to do up, and then stay up. SO disappointed that I am sending this back. How this can be post-surgery I do not know and I had surgery over 3 months ago and once I had managed to do it up (zip kept coming down) I was in agony. Terrible

Great sports bra
This has amazing support for running. Most bras hurt my chest when I run, but this is great. I've also had breast surgery so it gives great support. It was hard to zip into the first time but really recommend.

My favourite sports bra
This is my second purchase of this type/style of bra. I find it to be very supportive whilst remaining comfortable. A variety of colours would be lovely in future.
