Pros: If you are large chested this is the bra for you.
Cons: UGLY!
The Bottom Line: This is a bra, not a sports top. If you keep this in mind you will be happy with your purchase.

| erin5oaks's Full Review: Champion Underwire Comfort Bra |
I am going to tell you right from the beginning this is not be best looking sports bra. I have a HUGE collection of cute bras that can be worn by themselves when you are working out. This is not one of those bras.
This looks like a normal bra. You will not be stripping off your shirt when you get hot if you are wearing this bra. The one I have is white. I have not seen it in any other color.
One of the plus' is that you can get more wear from it compared to your other sports bras. You can wear it everyday or for working out. You will get your monies worth.
There is velco on the straps. This feature is wonderful because it keeps your straps for falling off when you are moving about. You don't want to be distracted while playing your game.
Why you might ask would I wear this bra? It is neither the of the many "cute" or "fashionable" bras that are available. If I am doing an activity such as running a long distance road race or playing games all day I wear this bra. I can take some jiggling for the short term but not for too long. This is especially true if you have large breasts.
Some large breasted women can never wear "traditional" sports bras. This is why they buy this bra. The straps are wide. There is no digging into your shoulders no matter how heavy your breasts are. You can even adjust the straps on the back.
Many sports bras come in small, medium, and large. You can buy this bra in the exact size. This bra comes in sizes 34-42, cup sizes B-DD. This is a large range of sizes compared to other brands. This is a big plus in my opinion.
I like the side vents in the Champion under wire comfort bra. It helps to keep you cool when you are working out. I have never had sweaty breasts which makes me much more comfortable.
This is one of the few sports bras that has an under wire. Anyone who has ever worn an under wire bra knows how uncomfortable they can be even if you are not exercising. There is plenty of padding so there is no rubbing or chafing with this under wire.
If you are a woman who does not like the uniboob look that you often get with many sports bras this may be the one for you. There are non-stretch cups which will give each breast definition if this is important to you.
I never put this bra into the dryer. This bra by Champion is made of nylon/cotton/spandex/lycra. I do not want it to shrink. There has been no snagging or running that many times happens with cheaper bras.
You can find this at most large department stores or at your local sporting good store. This is comfortable and utilitarian. If you are a large breasted woman who has had trouble finding a sport's bra this is the one for you.
I am not sorry I have this bra in my collection.
