Not for large women
I will be returning the 3 that I ordered. I ordered the size indicated on the size chart. Not even close to fitting properly. The bra began to ride up from the bottom instantly. I couldn't move without it trying to expose my nipple. It might be good for you if you are small, but definitely not for anyone bigger than a B cup. Very disappointed

    Soft and Comfortable. True to size or go up one.
    Comfortable and nice cotton feel. I'm going to size up and order another. Bought the blueish color(forgotten name, Iris?) is a nice change. I've lost over 60lbs and sizing has been a challenge. Still worth shopping for new clothes yeah!!

    Finally found the perfect cotton bra
    This is the first cotton bra i found that sctually fit properly. The shoulder straps on bras like these arent adjustable, so they are usually way too long. I've never had one woth straps that were too short or tight. they are always ridiculously long. BUT this bra the straps were perfect. I use it for an overnight bra. i have always hated sleeping sans bra. its uncomfortable IMO. but the bra has to be soft and not constricting. which this one is.... It's also a thick enough cotton that i have worn it all day as well. I normally would prefer more support for daytime,but with that said this was absolutely doable.

    Comfortable but zero support
    This may be one of the most comfortable bras but for a sports bra there is ZERO support (only reason for the low rating). Wore this just for a two mile walk with my dog and my back was killing me by the time I got home. I'm a little disappointed but at least I have a new lounging at home only bra. My only suggestion would be to get a few sizes down from what you would normally order so it's tight for some support.

    I had to order up two sizes.
    I like this brand and this style for wearing under my shirts and blouses. I am 70 , 38/40 B , and regular bras hurt my back now. I had to order a 46 to not constrict my chest. The cup was not too big. This do a good job of keeping me in place and uplifting a little. I do not think they would make good running or heavy exercise bras as they are not that supportive. They are good for Cubi, mini Trampoline/Rebounder, and walking. I am very happy with these, bought several in different colours. As far as the bottom clasp digging into the chest, I used a hammer to pound that hook down and it no longer bothers me. I would suggest you try this. If it scratches, I use some silicone tape over it and tags in the back of my shirts that scratch me and that takes care of the scratching. I also cut the tags out. I recommend these "sports bras" , especially at the discount price.

    Comfortable!
    Very comfortable! I am almost 40 and have been wearing underwire bras for probably 20 years, now that I am at that age that I just want to be comfortable this are a dream come true. There is not much lift/support but I don't care. If comfort is what you're looking for this bra is for you!

    Ran a little small.
    Have some fruit of the loom underwires that I loved so bought the same size but these ran a little small and had to go up a size. Other than that really they are good. Recently had a lumpectomy and my surgeon recommended them so anyone going through that give them a try.

    Perfect Sports Bra
    I love the fabric. Fruit of the Loom is the only sports bra I have found the has 95% Cotton Fiber/5% Spandex. Most are too synthetic, to tight/stretchy and, therefore do not breathe; that results in a very sweaty, uncomfortable experience especially in summer. These are the first front closure sports bras I have tried. I love the comfort, fit and look of the Fruit of the Loom front closure sports bra.

    Uncomfortable
    I got two of these, wanting to wear them around the house, when Im cleaning or working in the yard, etc. The arm holes are very, very small; to the point of pinching my skin. And I'm not overweight! Took it off immediately and knew that the bra wasn't going to work for me.

    Very comfortable!
    I love these bras! I got my first one after surgery for breast cancer 6 years ago. I love these bras because they are so soft and comfortable. The best part is they have 2 layers in front so I just cut a small slit and I can easily slip in my breast form in between the layers and it won't slip out unexpectedly (I hate the old lady looking ones that are made for this purpose, so I adapted). Plus having a front close bra is easier on my arm. I am so thankful that I found them online and could get more. Thank you Fruit of the Loom and Walmart for making life a little easier! Glad to be a survivor!

    Comfort and Style
    When I first purchased these bras in black, I accidentally purchased the wrong size. After exchanging them for the correct size I now wear, these bras are amazingly comfortable! I purchased them because I had medical breast reduction surgery and needed bras that had front closures that I could wear for a month that would be comfortable yet allow for swelling. They were a great value for the price and fit well. They added just the right amount of support - not too tight where I felt constricted. The added feature of front hooks made them easy to get on and off without having to struggle getting them over my head. I washed them in cold water on gentle wash and let them air dry to avoid shrinkage. The lower design in the front made them feel like a regular bra and not a sports bra.

    great for people recovering from breast surgery
    had bilateral mastectomy, and reconstruction 20 years ago,, and the implants became punctured..had surgery to have them replaced...was told to wear a sports bra during the healing, but was not able to have free movements of my arms..so, this "front closure" bra was perfect , as I could put it on with little movements of my arms...I was dreading having to wear a sports bra..but I am very surprised at how comfortable it is.

    not for C cup or bigger
    I ordered this bra to wear in the hospital after surgery and at home recovering but it's not working out. I am normally a 44D and after reading the other reviews where people had to go up two sizes in order for it not to be too tight, I ordered a size 48. This bra is comfortable without being too tight and easy to fit into and hook in front but I am a D cup and after having this bra on for just a little while, I noticed that the bra was riding up on me and my breasts were coming out the bottom of the bra!! So I had to keep pulling it down over my breasts but it kept riding up again - so much so that half of the bra would be covering me but the lower half of my breasts were coming out - very annoying. I don't want to put up with this anymore. Maybe if there was an actually cup opening for a large breasted woman like me but this bra is flat like a sports bra. This would be a fine bra for an A or B cup woman.

    Good style/selection for mastectomy patient.
    Great bra option for me as a fresh post-op bilateral mastectomy (with reconstruction) patient. Front closure a necessity. Comfortable. Read purchaser's reviews prior to buying. Would agree that the bra runs small. I measured a 36; ordered both a 36 and a 38. The 38 was the one that fit. Quality of the bra wonderful and price very reasonable. Returned the one that did not fit to my local Walmart without problem. Also found that the Danskin Front Close Deep Plunge bra also worked for my needs (also available online at Walmart; size truer to measured size). Would recommend this purchasing method for those of you who have had recent surgery...find possible bra styles online through Walmart, order them in multiple sizes, then locally return those that do not fit. I first went physically to 4 different places in my city to try to find a bra...exhausting so soon after surgery and was unsuccessful. Hope this hint will save you energy and be helpful. If you are going through cancer treatment, stay strong. There is life after treatment, friend.

    recommended for post breast surgery by doctor. The only problem was that the circumference is small. I am normally a 36, and I had to get a 38 (tight) 40 (comfortable) I went by the reviews of a previous purchaser and they were right! Otherwise it was very comfortable and easy to take on and off. would definitely recommend this!
