I bought my first Chantelle sports bra in May 2017, in fuschia pink. It was so good that I went and bought another one 6 months later in purple. I have tried other brands such as shock absorber (X2 unwired), higher state running sports bra (X2 unwired), generic h&m sports bra (X1 unwired). If I'm running or doing very high impact workouts, I still wear another thinner, unwired sports bra on top of this sports bra to keep everything totally secure. Not that you really need it, but I just do it. I've been trying to get hold of them this year and it had been difficult, until I found this black one at a decent price.
Pros:
• Been using 2 other Chantelle sports bras (the same type) since 2017 and it's had very little wear, despite of being through the wash several times and despite of me getting really sweaty in it several times.
• Very comfortable.
• Material is thick (you won't have to worry about anything showing when it's cold)
• You can cross the straps in the back and it holds in place with clasps (as seen in the photo). This provides extra support.
• Best sports bra for high impact activities.
• Comes in beautiful colours. I already own the fuschia pink, purple and now this black one. Hope to get hold of the orange one.
• Very supportive. You feel your bust area is fully secure and it doesn't move.
• It has an underwire. It can be seen as a pro or con, depending on your preference. I definitely prefer it for support.
• The edge of the sports bra is thicker than the bust area i.e. the straps, below the underwire, etc
• You can easily wear a chest strap for you heart rate with this if you wished. So if you're like me and wear a polar chest strap, it's not an issue wearing it below the sports bra and you'll get a good reading.
Cons:
• This black version of the sports bra is thinner than the other 2 I had purchased in the past. But it's generally thick, but just feels slightly thinner than the other two I own.
• The 'chantelle' metal label may come off, with repeated washing. This is really no big deal as it's not going to affect your fit, comfort, etc. And it can be easily stitched back on, which is what I did with my pink and purple ones. Or you can leave it.
• It has an underwire, which was started previously can be a pro or a con.
The pricing can vary a lot! I've seen it as low as around £15 to as high as around £44. So look out for deals.
