I bought this on amazon.ca for a good price. I've been stocking up on long band, wireless bras with built in padding to help with recent sensory issues. I followed the size chart, and ordered a L/G based on what cup size I need (usually 30F-FF). The band is very long and stretchy so it was hard to know when to stop stretching it for the measurements. Take all measurements with a grain of salt since it's wireless with large built in cups.
The straps are about half adjustable and long enough for me; 3 clasps on band.
Front material not attached to the built in cups. Material is like ...a mix of cotton and stretchy thin nylon sports bra type material.
The cups come up quite high under my arm pits, so if your torso is short this probably won't work for you. It has a very tall wing. I personally love it because I'm so low set and I feel enclosed with this bra. It's not irritating for me either.
Pretty much no uplift, but it is what it is....a lightly padded boob hat to provide me comfort and security when my skin and body are feeling sensitive. I wear it all day at work and forget it's there. Read more 101 more words
I’m glad it does what you want it to :) honestly I love mine for bumming around at home. It is a boob hat but sometimes we just need a comfortable boob hat!
Yep, it does the job. All my current new bras are just boob hats, but they're working for me for now.
I've purchased a few of the same exact RM3911 bulge free bras and every time the hooks bend and loosen in the wash. Anyone else experiencing this and does the mfr replace?
Machine are you washing on gentle/delicate and hang drying? Alternately, you can soak them for 20 minutes with gentle detergent and then rinse and hang dry (I gently squeeze water out first with my hands then with a towel). I have been living in an apartment the last few months and use communal washing machines on regular cold wash and I haven't had any issues.I never put them in the dryer though. I bought this one though Amazon, so I'm not sure if the manufacturer would replace, but worth a try?
The band of this bra is undeniably too big, and the cups are undeniably too small. Even still, the straps are INCREDIBLY soft and stretchy, as is the whole bra. It’s so comfy, and feels a bit like a cloud. I think I’m going to get another with bigger cups, band size be damned, and alter it to the correct band size. As for right now, it’s my current go-to bra under tight tops, since it provides the perfect amount of nipple coverage, lies invisible and flat under shirts, and is flexible and supportive enough to keep up with me and all my activities, no matter what way I bend or move.
It seems to do a good job with separation! That's great :)
MamaPagan it is! brasaremean I was shocked at how well this bra was able to lift and separate, but I think it’s the shaping of the cups themselves. My guess is it would only be better at it with bigger cups! :D
This is my third Play It Cool Wire-free Bra. These are the admirable characteristics: 1. Exceptionally comfortable. 2. Convertible straps. 3. Straps adjust and disconnect/reconnect in FRONT. 4. Sufficient nipple armor and modesty. 5. Beautifully rounded under thin knits. 6. Not ideal for close-set, center-full breasts but effortlessly adjusts to such breasts without a fight. 7. Pain-free, wire-free 8. I forget I'm wearing a bra. 9. Less coverage than many wireless options which is helpful for summer attire.
I must shorten the band a few inches for support. Without a shorter band, I receive zero support. Easily remedied problem https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />
How does this compare to the Wacoal How Perfect Wire Free Bra (852189) ? I love how soft that one is, but its a little tooeast-west for my taste, and the cups cut into my center fullness....
This cup tolerates center fullness marginally better. And, the Play It Cool materials are very stretchy. I quad near the top of the cup in How Perfect. But, my quadding in Play It Cool is nearer the gore. However, this cup is much happier to let my breasts "meet and greet" which never happens in How Perfect. Worth a try ;-)
This looks so comfortable! I've been eyeing non-wired bras lately just to have something that is soft and comfortable for lounging and weekends. I may eventually give this one a try.
This one, I can comfortably leave the house and not worry about how my bra looks. Because it is lower coverage than most others, it hides under all my shirts.
After trying 4 different Freya Deco Soft cup bras, I purchased this $14 Warner's. Freya's cups are taller, the materials stiffer, the padding thicker, and price 4x. However, the shape under a t-shirt is very similar. The Deco makes my breasts look taller and does not hide easily under my scoop neck knits. Warner's shorter cup is compatible with every shirt I own. I'm grateful.
This Warner claims to "not create cleavage." Giggle. They failed. It definitely produces cleavage if you have center-full breasts. You have been duly warned https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" /> https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_wink.gif" alt=";-)" />
This band will stretch to 36"+. However, ...the cup width distorts at 34". I will stiffen this band with some stiches and non-stretch ribbon to provide some support. Off the rack, the band is super soft and super stretchy. This is comfortable....and unsupportive. Easily remedied.
The cup accommodates those of us who prefer modesty. And, all of the fabrics are microfiber soft. I cringe as I type this because I know how microfibers effect our ecosystem. This I will hand wash to reduce the microparticle sluffing. A Decent Exposures Cotton bra is in my radar.... https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" />
Overall, the shape under a t-shirt and the comfort of the materials endeared me. I didn't care to own a Deco soft cup, but I will enjoy this Warner's Play It Cool Wire-free. If you are willing to alter the band and have wide roots, this bra is a great soft cup for wearing under fitted t-shirts. Read more 150 more words
L4P, I do not own a softcup bra now. But this one looks great on you, produces a nice profile, and looks mega-comfy. For $14, I will give it a try and report back.
Hope Amazon has your size on sale. The price for this color increased overnight. Best wishes!
TAG SAYS: Simply Perfect by Warner's (4020) but matches listed line/style # from Warner's website. Contour style t-shirt bra with padding around wire that is my holy grail of bras except that it is (as I now know) very much the wrong size. It's made of smooth fabric that does not cling to clothing, cups show no lines under clothes, it's super comfortable and goes with everything I own. I am on (seemingly) endless quest to find as close to an identical replacement as possible in my proper size. Sigh.
I've been wearing this bra in several colors for quite a while now. I first got it at Kohl's and while it didn't fit, it was the most comfortable bra that was accessible to me at the time. It's been over two years and I'm still wearing them, because even though they aren't even close to fitting me they are stretchy enough to offer barely enough support to get me through the day.
I've tried other, more structured and more fitted bras but for the time being I'm going to settle with this model because the stretchiness and bra pads are still more comfortable for me.
Pro's : - Comfortable - Affordable - Stretchy and accessible for a wide range of cup sizes - Versatile because of strap adjustment
Cons: - Minimal support - Does not fit - Band stretches out quickly - All weight forced onto shoulders - Thin straps can cut in - Pushes breasts together and creates a uni-boob effect
Fits well, great t-shirt/pj's bra, very comfortable since there are no wires. The high wings are nice around the pits and keep things smooth. I wear this bra on the loosest hooks and it fits perfectly around the band. However, cups are attached in the middle with essentially no gore so the cups don't feel as "pulled together" as they ought to be. Straps are too wide for my taste, about 5/8". Probably will wear it until it's worn out and not replace.
Warner's Firm Support Wireless Bra (1744) has great coverage and support. It has a slightly wider band than most regular bras, and slightly wider straps that aren't thin and flimsy. The fabric has great shine to it. There is no scratchiness or itchiness caused by wearing this bra, and as mentioned, the coverage is full as well as the support and lift is great.
It’s a comfy bra and the straps adjust all the way starting from the front. The support is decent until the band stretches out. The cups aren’t really right- not far enough apart and possibly also not wide enough, but the material is forgiving so it doesn’t poke or chafe anywhere. The wings are kinda high for me, but again, the fabric is so soft and stretchy it doesn’t matter- probably also helps the cups are more toward the center so the wing isn’t actually in my armpit even though should be. Straps are right at the edge of close enough together. Pretty smooth under most tops.
This got the job done for my pregnancy fluctuations. The straps are convertible for making a cross-back, but the clips are in front at the top of the cup, so this can actually be a makeshift nursing bra!
While this doesn't fit great, it's an improvement over the 32C I was wearing. The top of the cups fit ok, not too tall. The bottom isn't projected enough, so it continually slips down. It's very soft. I get a little bit of a smushed sports bra look. I was trying to find something in stores and this fits pretty well and was $6.
Much like my other Warner’s bra in the same size, this bra feels much too padded, and much too shaped in the cups. It feels like putting my boobs into triangular holsters pointing diagonally away from my body in opposing directions, so everything feels much too separate for my boobs. Cups fit overall, but I feels like I have a wall of padding attached to my body and I don’t at all like it. Again, the cups are too tall and cutting into my underarms. The band fits, but feels too loose, I would definitely prefer it tighter. The multiway straps adjust long enough, but are difficult to clasp and unclasp again, using an odd clasp that feels like the sort of snap you’d find on a pair of pants, but worse.
Soft and plush, but VERY padded and VERY shaped cups. Feels like much too much. Feels like it forces me to be more East-West than I’d like, and like my boobs are made into a pointy shape pointing away from each other. Everything is soft, but the bra does come a little too high and cut into my underarms, though this might be remedied if the cups were closer together. Band feels loose, but does not ride up.
Yes this is a common problem when you sister size up. 36 bands are made for someone whose chest wall is assumed to be a lot wider than yours, so on them thesecups would be facing forwards but here it's not working so well. I have not looked at your bras but to find a non-sister-size option in this style you may want to look at Wacoal How Perfect or the nonwire version of Natori Bliss (foam molded cups). Very similar shape but scaled for smaller ribcages when bought in the correct size.
wendybien oh, I had no idea! I had scaled up to 36D because I knew it would fit me in cup volume, and I could alter the band down if I needed to. I didn’t expect the shape/fit to be so bad on me, nor did I have any idea this was a product of sister sizing. Small bands and big cups are both hard to find, so I thought I could cut myself a break via sister sizing.
Yes unfortunately it is a typical problem when you go far enough up the band size scale! If you happen to have a wide-set shape sometimes it doesn't matter too much, but with the current trend for nonwired bras to be very plungey with almost triangular cups and these deep wide V necklines, those of us who are center-full or close-set will have trouble making sister sizing work. If you're trying designs that don't have that deep V it will usually be a bit easier.
I may be biased since it was the wrong size to begin with, but this bra was not a good experience. It stretched out almost immediately and became almost unwearable due to the looseness. To its credit, it’s very soft and comfortable. I’d recommend to someone if it’s the right size, but maybe get a band size smaller than usual because it will stretch a lot.
I’m glad it does what you want it to :) honestly I love mine for bumming around at home. It is a boob hat but sometimes we just need a comfortable boob hat!
