Although this is not a mastectomy bra, it is one of the most comfortable post-op bras I have. The deep side panels are perfect for holding in my "overhang", and my "knitted knocker" is held securely exactly where I want/need it. I can wear this bra all day with no discomfort, and its high cotton content makes it ideal in warmer weather. Perfect. I'll be sending for at least one other in different colours.
I sized up one size as per many reviews. Usually a 36B, bought a 38 so I could put it in the wash and dryer with no worries. Fit is good after washing, with having some shape unlike many sports bras. The sewing thread in the bottom hem bothered me (have very sensitive skin) so I wear it inside out and just put it on / off over my head. Huge difference in comfort! Why don't they just make them with the hems on the outside? I found the flap that covers the hooks (so they are not touching your skin) is not wide enough either. It just barely covers the hooks so the bottom one was a little irritating after awhile. Really needs to be a wider flap. But with wearing it inside out thats no longer a problem. Its white on the inside, and the bra info is printed on the fabric in black so it's not "perfect" wearing it inside out but I am more concerned about comfort on a hot summer day than "looks". Easy to throw in the washer and dryer! Can't beat the price either. Update: bought a grey one in size 40 and its total comfort!
First off, the band around this is horrible! It is itchy and scratchy and just plain hurts! The stitching is rough and it feels like they've used wire thread! This bra also fits very large. Way too much 'room'. But, to be totally honest, I didn't even bother closing all the clasps because the feel of the material and the stitching had me quickly removing it. It feels like there is cardboard (not sure what it is) alongside the clasps as it is very stiff. Hard to believe Fruit of the Loom would design something like this and use such horrible material. Not at all impressed. Sorry, but that's the truth.
Was looking for a Surgical bra to have after my breast reduction that took place on December 28,17 was a little afraid that it may not fit & may have some discomfort But I was highly wrong. It’s very comfy & love the colors! As soon as I tried them on I rushed & ordered 3more.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Don’t Hesitate Just Purchase💋
