Nike Swoosh High Support

Pros and cons of this bra for high impact sports. I wear this bra specifically for long distance running, so this review is specifically for cardio. I am a 28 DD. Purchased in Medium. Nike has since changed their sizing guide, so hopefully the recommended fit is better! Pros: -supportive: This bra truly does support my chest. I do not ever feel like they are bouncing, nor do I have pain during or after training. -long lasting: I purchased two of these two years ago and I wear them every single day. I wash on cold and hang to dry. After two years they are showing only the smallest amount of wear or elastoc breakdown. -Removable cups: usually I hate these, but the cups are well designed, can be easily removed by snipping a small elastic, and can be replaced easily via a top opening. When placed they do not move. With the cups placed I never have an issue with my nipples showing through my shirt. Cons: -Lower band: its not very tight, though it is comfortable. My biggest issue with this bra is honestly that the lower band is not snug enough. This likely is not an issue for athletes with wider ribcages or more muscle, but I find that when running the band rides up to just under my breast line. At times it feels like it might pop right off. -straps: while a comfortable wide fit, the straps are not adjustable. I find that this can be uncomfortable as between the strap length and the bands lack of tightness, sometimes the bra will slip too high up or fall too low down. Overall A solid purchase, though not very size inclusive or comfortable if you are petite with a large chest. I like this bra for its support, but will likely purchase a different one in the future as the band makes it a bit uncomfortable for long distance running. Edit: I think that nikes lack of availability for some petite runners may be clear in that my bra band size is not an option on the form to complete this review, lol.

I truly wanted to love this bra, as I have been on a hunt for a highly supportive sports bra. The bra was comfortable but I did not enjoy the fact that I can’t tighten it as much as I’d like to. Also after two-three washes the Velcro starts coming off. This bra should not be falling apart. I’m disappointed. I also noticed that after a long run, I typically sweat a lot which is normal for everyone but this bra also could not stay Velcrod due to sweat and high mobility. Do not buy this bra for high preformance workouts.

Hard no. The regular non-padded and non-adjustable pullovers are still the best. I actually own more than 50 in both high and medium support. I workout a lot and enjoy buying them in different colors. I'm disappointed that Nike changed their bras to this. I did not feel supported at all with this adjustable bra. I need a tight band for support that feels like it's going to stay put during my long runs and workouts. My older Nike pullover bras have wash and worn well over the years, this doesn't seem like it will last like my other pullovers have. I don't want to feel like I need to keep adjusting either. As a devoted long time Nike sports bra wearer (at least since 2008), I do not recommend this adjustable bra. For reference, I have a small frame with a 32D bra size. I usually buy the non-padded and non-adjustable pullovers in size XS and S. I'm an athlete that runs and goes to the gym regularly for cross training cardio and weight lifting. Bring back the regular pullover bras. They have served me well for over a decade.
