Do comfy bras exist?

[loopyloo30]

I’m on the lookout for a comfy bra. I’m fed up with the underwire cutting into me especially in this warm weather. Has anyone tried gel bras? Are they any good? Or does anyone else have any recommendations? Ideally I’d want something that has a clasp at the back. Thank you.

Have you been measured lately? Uniboob is usually due to poorly fitted bras. The boob or bust website has a measuring calculator with instructions of how to measure and you’ll likely find that you’re a different size to what you think. It also tells you what style of bra is best for your body shape.

I don’t think it’s a size issue, it’s more I think to do with the fact that it’s the wire which keeps the central part between the boobs, flat to the chest and also therefore keeps the boobs apart. I don’t think there’s an answer apart from probably one of those old style “cross your heart” bras which come up so high that they don’t really work under clothes with a decent v neck or an open shirt

I bought some on shein of all places and I’m absurdly delighted with them. Fantastic value, super sportive with nice thick straps and they are actually comfortable! I’m a 38e but I also bought a38d by accident and gave it to my 17yo dd…. She said she wants just those bras in the future and so I ordered her another 4. Got some on order for my sister too. I’ll attach pictures of them as i got a mix of wired and non wired but they really are great. They wash well too and for the price I’m absolutely thrilled.

I wear a wired bra all day long and all the time at home too. Never felt uncomfortable. I currently wear Fantasie Fusion at a 30FF (Bravissimo measured and checked recently again).

Thoroughly recommend Snag bras. Non wired, larger straps so no digging in, super comfy. Dont wear anything else now.

I exclusively wear Molke original these days, breathable, no wires and still give a shape with 2 boobs. I find all other non-wired bras aim for the mono boob look. Even the Molke flexi bra is mono boob.

And most other don’t go up big enough if you are actually wearing the right size.

This.

I'm a Molke fan too and only wear their original bras as well.
They are the comfiest bras I've ever worn and are a genius design.
You don't get mono boob with them as, though the back is one piece, like a traditional soft bra, the front is cut in 2 pieces - one for each boob - and they cross each other in the middle, one under and one over to attach to the chest band.
I'm not explaining it well but it means, for example, that you can reach for something from a high shelf and one bosom doesn't end up escaping underneath the chest band - everything returns to where it's meant to be.
Not cheap, not particularly pretty but so, so comfortable.

Bravissimo do a lovely non wired wrap bra - great for separating the boobs. I need to get another one as I've changed sizes (due to weight loss). I also used to love the Doreen bra I had (again lost weight, so too big for me now!) :)

I live Miss Mary of Sweden cotton bra. Also the M and S no underwire Flex. I am 42F so I think they must be pretty good.

If the wire is cutting in it’s the wrong size. Bravissimo have a range of wire free bras. Lots of the Instagram/tiktok bras have sizes that are supportive fit across multiple band sizes so they’ll be a terrible fit in reality.

John lewis kaley t shirt Bras (the wired ones) are incredibly comfortable. I'm very fussy and they're the only ones I can wear all day.

@CantMakerHerThink do you know what your actual measurements are? Just looking at this and their 38 has an under bust of 32 inches…trying to work out what I would need as 34G in proper sizing?

Jelly bras.

I am a 38e in uk sizes now, not on shein the equates to an 85f on their sizing charts. I’ve always been between 38-40 -Dd to FF but recently lost 6 some so was looking for ultra cheap short term stop gaps until my weight had stabilised. I never expected them to be any good at all but honestly I’m so impressed I’ll never buy another bra from a uk supermarket again. I’ve never had such a comfortable well priced bra in my entire life, I’ve paid £30+ in the past and still been uncomfortable so this is brilliant for me.

I’m add some photos of them in real life in a bit and one of them on. They seem to be very well made and I’ve stocked up and ordered in multiple colours.

this link had the uk sizes and their equivalent next to them. Just make sure you deep dive any reviews and go for those with 4.5 stars upwards.

Evelyn & Bobbie. They sell in Iohn Lewis but also directly online. They are pricey but often have sales or end of line reductions. Game changing. I no longer think about my bra once on and I wear a 36 G….

They're the Comfyin ones.

Don't want to derail but can you recommend a good brand ? Fancy trying jelly but wouldn't know which to try ? 😊

What are these called please?

I’m a great advocate of the Doreen Triumph. I’m quite well endowed and they are so comfortable.

As others mentioned I wear Molke originals and they are the comfiest bra I’ve ever owned. I step into them rather than pull them over my head and with a quick scoop everything is in place. I even wear them for the gym:)

Of course they exist.
I've never worn a bra that isn't comfortable.
Why would you ?
