Squeaky creaky bolder holders from M&S

Anyone else have a problem with creaking squeaking bras from Marks and Spencer.

My bra is so loud it sounds like a nest of mice are living in it.

Mine always squeak when new, just wash them in loads of fabric softener, that should stop the sqeaking! Grin

Over the shoulder boulder holder!
Mine squeak when new but I soon sweat the squeak away.

I have also experienced this. It's embarrassing. I haven't bought an m&s bra in a couple of years though. I got fed up with them.

Haven't had it since I stopped buying m&s bras. If they squeak when I get them they quickly stop, it's only m&s ones that were properly squeaky creaky.

Totally agree...and yes, I've stopped wearing them! Something in the strap fastenings definitely makes them squeak! I usually wear the M&S Secret Support vests...the old, plainer style, made of thicker cotton, with no tacky lace trimmings. Alas they don't do them any more, so before long I will have to look elsewhere.
No idea why M&S discontinue the products customers really want! Confused

Yes!!! My latest one does loads. Sure other people can hear it! Never had it before and I get all my bras from them. Overall their bras have got worse I think. Our local store is huge. I tried so many on and the one I got is the best of a bad bunch. The fit isn’t perfect and it creaks. But I have no idea where else to go really

Done bras make you creak like an old ship! I hate M&S bras so rarely buy them.

frugalkitty · 13/03/2019 18:10

My new one did this, it drove me mad!! Lots of googling unearthed it as a common problem with M&S bras, but it went after washing a couple of times. I think it's the plastic ring where the front and back straps join, metal rings are better apparently.

dudsville · 13/03/2019 18:16

Hm. I've never experienced this and don't have bras from mns.

MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours · 13/03/2019 18:18

I have a couple of squeaky bras, they are not M&S ....they seem to stop eventually.

Pashazade · 13/03/2019 18:27

From my experience the wiring in M&S bras is definitely thinner and they just aren't as well constructed. I have memories of creaking bras but can't remember which brand it was!!

Londonmummy66 · 13/03/2019 20:06

I gave up buying M&S bras as the quality is so poor these days - not just the creaking, the hooks and eyes are so shoddy they crumble.... Freya from John Lewis now - a bit more expensive but last much much longer.

Macaroni46 · 13/03/2019 22:33

I've had this too! Also M & S. thought it was just me 😂

DoorbellsSleighbellsSchnitzel · 13/03/2019 22:36

I only ever buy M&S bras when they're in clearance sales these days as they're just not worth the cost otherwise, but yes! They are ALL squeaky!! I thought it was just because of my ahem 'generous sizing'...

Gardai · 13/03/2019 22:37

This made me laugh OP as my last M&S bra creeked and squeaked, stuck into me and was rubbish. I will not be getting one again, and I used to love their bras, shame.

Smotheroffive · 13/03/2019 22:40

Yes,all the cotton stuff is being withdrawn Mrssmiling the cotton opaque tights disappeared completely in m&s and were then repackaged and put back on sale for at least £10 more.

Has nobody else ever noticed this.

I have found it with cotton fleece too, you just can't find it anymore!

ScrambledSmegs · 13/03/2019 22:46

I don't remember when I had my last M&S bra, it's been that long. I remember the squeaking though. I think it's partly because they fitted me in the ^wrong fucking size'.
