Comfortable, flattering, functional
Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2015
Sizing: my regular bra size is a 34D and it's always hard to know whether to go for a M or L. I ordered both and I'm glad I have both because neither are "too tight" or "too loose". I use the M for exercising and the L for everyday use. The L is more comfortable and fits perfectly well. But I like my sports bras fairly tight to exercise. Both fit and so the sizing up or down one size doesn't make a huge difference. I have several of each now because I wear them so much.The built in foam is the best! No worrying about the foam cups moving around or having to remove them to wash the bra, etc. they're placed perfectly and there is no nipple show. A huge plus for me.They are my favorite bra right now because they're so functional. It's flattering and comfortable enough to wear on a regular basis, but also supportive enough for light to moderate exercise. I do yoga and jog in it. For horseback riding, I use it, but wear a shelf bra style cotton sports bra over it for added support.I wish the material was more silky (like a VS bra), but then it would be way more expensive. They're definitely not uncomfortable though, or I wouldn't love them so much.
I can't believe this thing fits.

I'm a 32FF/G and ordered a Large. I bought this assuming I wouldn't fit into it. Not only did it fit but it also gave me cleavage. It is a bit hard to get on and off because it's really small but really stretchy. It doesn't provide any support so the straps hurt some but at least I have a racer back bra now.I'm taking a star off because you have to remove one of the tags in order to try it on, which means that you technically can't return it.
Cute & Comfortable Bras That Last

These pull-over Hanes Bandinis are amazing, whether you want padded or unpadded. Very soft, versatile and cute, but comfortable for nearly everything but a fancier occasion or dress. Have a drawer full of these and they launder well and LAST for years. Not great for chestier types but an XL would fit a C-Cup very well, depending on the band width. I'd recommend that this is best for somebody with a band width of 38 or lower. Preferably a 36.
... my hands on - for me they are the perfect gym bra

I have as many of these as I can get my hands on - for me they are the perfect gym bra. I do weights, run, yoga and they work for all areas. There is o removable pads so the bra retains its normal shape. They don't show nipplling and give support without making you look like a uniboob. I am 5'8 with a 34 D chest - but my breasts and ribcage are wide. The medium does not hold my girls fully in. I have always used the large but after several uses they do stretch a bit - so for me the best solution is to wear 2 larges together. It gives good shape - holds everyone is - not too constricting and actually looks fashionably cut that way.
its super comfortable and great for working out with support

the natural bisque heather rugby is really just nude and nude stripes. besides that I ordered a few more of these after I bought one at a bealls outlet for $5. its super comfortable and great for working out with support ( I do zumba and weights to it accommodated bouncing etc) I DID NOT know that this was a bra you could convert until I looked it up online, so that was a bonus. I order small and I am a 34 small B, it has pads that are not removable but they are sewn in quite well.. The one I have had for a year probably gets worn and washed 2x/week and is not lumpy or anything.
Only bra I wear
Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2018
This is the only bra I wear (if I can help it) I own three of them. One I got three years ago and still wear it. It has started to lose some elasticity after all this time but for as many washer dryer cycles itâs been through itâs doing fantastic. This bra just feels so secure and it doesnât make me look flat like most sports bras (Iâm pretty small chested) but it doesnât feel uncomfortably padded either. One thing I really love is the strap placement they stay put and donât move around and I donât ever have to mess with them while wearing. Though I imagine that the straps would dig in to the shoulder for more well endowed women.

I absolutely love these bandini bras! I found one ages ago at walmart (of all places) and they now only sell ones without the padding or with padding that moves all over the place. These bras are comfortable (wirefree!), The padding isn't too thick but covers my nipples from showing annnd it stays in place! It offers the support I need for my lil 34-B (w padding) chest and I love that the straps fold down seamlessly if you want to wear a strapless shirt or dress, or tan your shoulders. Its also great if you have low tops and want to be a little more conservative for work, no one would even clue into the fact that its a bra. Its great. Just bought 2! Definitely my favourite bra out there. So happy. Just an FYI. I'm a small chested babe and I'm a medium in these and its a snug fit. :) So buy at size larger than usual. Enjoy!
Pretty good, comfortable and quality, but weird ruching.

This was a little tight, which is unusual for me - I am almost always a Small, and occasionally an XS. I kept it, mostly because I had to remove the tags in order to try it on. It's growing on me, though. I think it has stretched a little since I bought it.My complaint is that the little ruching on the front (not sure if you can see it in the pictures, or if it is even intentional - it may just be the way the thing bunches, but I'm unable to correct it) makes it less than ideal for almost anything I want to wear it with - the ridges show through most fabrics and look weird. Still, it's very comfy for wearing around the house or very casually.I do really like that the thin padding is totally sewn in, so they don't float around when you're wearing it, or come out and get lost in the washing machine. If they could fix the ruching problem I would buy a few more.

I'd wear them if it is one or two more sizes up! They were way too small for 44C.
The only bra you will ever want to wear!

I bought this bra from Target 6 years ago and liked it so much I bought 6 more. Sine then my white bras started looking dingy but I couldnât find them in Target anymore. I tried other brands but they just werenât the same. I was delighted to see that they were on Amazon. I am a coach and a PE teacher so I wear them every day. My older ones are still in great shape, seriously! They fit snug but not tight. Great support. I also like that the padding hides the fact that you might be cold. No one needs to see your nipples poking through your shirt.....especially middle school boys.

These are padded and so they don't fit as the one I bought in the store in same size. too small around the chest. I probably didn't read it properly.
