  1. Play It Cool Wirefree (RN3281A)

    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=";-)" />

    Easy to wear.

    • 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.

      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!

    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.

    100% comfortable, round shape under tight knits, convertible straps, readily available.... Royal Blue is more purple than my camera allows you to see. It is more blue violet.

    This is my 2nd, and I forget I'm wearing a bra while I wear this.

    This bra is very comfortable. However, the band is quite stretchy. Heavy breasts won't feel much support. The fabrics are delightfully soft and the straps remind me of grosgrain ribbons. They are both stretchy and supportive. The straps connect via what looks like a snap. And, the straps disconnect and reconnect easily to cross in the back. It is novel and comfortable.

    This bra, because of its low cup line near the center, is not ideal for center full busts. The cups cut across the top, near the center. However, after trying Freya's Deco, I prefer this bra. I would sew stiches through parts of the elastic band to improve rigidity and band support. The materials are far more comfortable than Freya's wireless Deco. However, Freya's wireless Deco is a better choice for taller roots. This Warner is suitable for shorter roots.

    Despite these issues, the bra is exceedingly easy to wear and comfortable.

    I love this bra. I think it's called the UnWire. There is an extra layer of padding on the inside so the wire isn't rubbing you all day. The fabric is soft and the cups fit great. Extra comfy and creates sexy cleavage.

    The downside is the fabric for the band is easily stretched out over time. This is probably the 2nd bra of this style I have owned. (I love to buy clearance bras at Target). Also, it shows some sweat stains pretty bad despite being cared for.

    its pretty comfortable and doesnt make me feel like i have too much back fat. the cups are a bit too large on top and the band is too loose, but overall not bad for not being able to find the correct band size in stores.

    A better fit than the 38B I was wearing but still too small. Boobs definitely get smushed in this one. Cheap dept. store bra, not very supportive, basically useful for compliance with company dress code and not much else.

    This bra runs too small. I thought it was gonna be a comforatable and attractive wireless bra.

    WRONG!

    a 36D should have fit but it makes me look like that "wench" look from the 1800s with the breasts heaving above their tops.

    Quality isn't good and it doesn't take too much before it starts tearing apart.

    also, it doesn't come in many ATTRACTIVE colors.

    I like the fit of the cups, though I would like a bit less separation. The band is way too big though. If the band size were correct for me, with the same cups, I think this would be a great bra for wearing every day.
