The Underwire Bra Customer Reviews

If you want a lot of compression, this is the bra for you. Personally, I couldn't breathe and had to have my husband help get it off - it was that tight.

Sassybax Response: Sounds like you ordered the wrong size. All Sassybax shapewear should never feel tight. We are known for our comfort. When putting on Sassybax you “Step Into” the product, like a bathing suit. Likewise, when removing Sassybax, you “Step Out”, like a bathing suit.

I am a medium size 8. I buy the Sassybax underwire bras and really like the comfort and ease of wear. I have been wanting to ask if I "should" be in a medium rather than the large that I have been enjoying. The underwire bra does not poke nor hinder breathing. I love the bra and I have been wearing them for a couple of years. janice, Springfield, Mo., Age: 60's June, 2011, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: L

Wow. This bra is ugly and huge. I mean it covers a LOT of surface area. I bought the Sassymax enhancers too, and with or without them, this bra made me look droopy. It does smooth away the back fat, but it's not worth it.

Sassybax Response: The Sassybax bra is a shapewear bra, designed to shape and smooth. It has practical application and therefore is different than many bras. It is our feeling that you are in a size that is too large and this is why you have had unsatisfactory results. We strongly recommend that you try the size Medium, making sure that you adjust the cup once you step into it to assure a custom cup fit. Regarding the Sassymax, this enhancer needs to be placed under the bottom of the breasts and lift upwards to ensure the proper angle and projection.

Smooths my back roll. TheUndies.com, April, 2011, Tall (5'9" and over) Size: 40D

Comfortable yet great support for full figures. TheUndies.com, April, 2011, Tall (5'9" and over) Size: 44DD

Would be perfect if the straps didn't slide down my shoulders. Not for women with narrow shoulders.

Sassybax Response: Not every product fits every women but usually our products do not have this problem. I wonder if you are in the right size because this could be the issue. subee, , Age: 60's March, 2010, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: XL

Runs small! I wear a 36C and this was so tight I had to send it back for an XL. Otherwise well constructed. Comfy straps.

Sassybax Response: Thank you for buying the Sassybax underwire bra. Our Seamless products are designed to hug your body for firm control. Not all women need this much control and prefer to go up a size for a looser fit which gives less control but still erases back fat. subee, NYC, Age: 60's February, 2010, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: L

I love that Sassaybax is addressing the problem with nearly every other bra out there: flimsy and/or narrow straps. I don't care who's wearing them; the typical bra just looks bad under garments that are at all clingy. So 5 stars for innovation. Some things can be improved upon... The shoulder straps tend to roll up on themselves, the white is turning grayish (even with hand washing), I wish it did a little more breast shaping and support, and the price is high.

Here's hoping other bra makers will stop regarding the backs of their bras as more than just an afterthought. And a big thanks to HerRoom for letting us have a look at bra backs before we order them!

Sassybax Response: Sassybax loves to hear all feedback and suggestions. Thank you for writing. As in a sturdy house or an engine that runs for over 300,000 miles it is the things that you cannot see that cost the most in a product but guarantee the quality of the product. Sassybax products are very difficult to make correctly, use quality yarns, and are extremely durable. These qualities add to the cost of our products.

Fitting your Sassybax properly is the most important tool towards having the straps and cups in concert with your body. In your comments you do not say your cup size. The support and shaping comes from the correct fit; we only fit sizes DD and less. Our bras will not add inches to your breasts; they give support and comfort by gently hugging your breasts while eliminating back fat.

Nylon and spandex are the yarns used in our bras. These yarns historically only grey or turn another color if washed with darker clothing that could tint the water. We will pass your comment on the color to our yarn supplier as a concern. Again, thank you for your feedback. Marjie, Hood River, Oregon, Age: 50's December, 2009, Petite (5'3" and under) Size: s

Best bra I have ever had! Comfortable all day!! Chris, Traverse City, MI, Age: 60's November, 2009, Average Height (5'4"-5'8") Size: m

Own six of these bras and love them because they are very comfortable. Don't like the price or the hand washing but for me they are worth it. Sarah, Florida, Age: 50's July, 2009, Tall (5'9" and over) Size: S

Nice bra....first time I put this on I wasn't real thrilled.... but it grows on you!! I gave it a 3 ***only because $65 is a lot of money for a bra!!! If you want comfort, especially if you are bothered by straps and always pulling this may be the best of the best for you. OH... sizing....I am between a Medium and a Large as far as T shirts go...I bought the large and it is perfect. Medium would have been too tight. Just.... start saving.... j, arpin, wisconsin, Age: 40's December, 2008, Petite (5'3" and under) Size: L

This is the most comfortable bra I have ever worn. I am hooked. I own 5 of them now. Robin, New York, NY USA, Age: 50's September, 2008, Size: M
