elomi Energise Underwire Sports Bra el8040 Reviews

I looked forward to this item arriving, however, upon trying it on, was quite disappointed. The end of the cups didn't fit my breasts correctly, leaving extra material which looked anything but flattering.

Elomi Response: The cup is too big. You might try going down a cup or two depending on how many cups large it was. Please refer to Tomimas fit tips to help you get the correct size. Shandra from Sacramento

The bra works, it's just painful while working. The underwire caused bruises on my sides underneath my arms from wearing it throughout the day. And the cups are torpedo-ish, hate that, and the fact that I paid $64 for a bra that I'm self-conscious about wearing.

Vendor Response: This energise bra is an active bra not necessarily to be worn all day. It is a great bra with tons of support but is a “lot of bra” for everyday wear. You could try a few different styles that will fit lower under the arm as not to cut you like the Abi Bra 8100 or the Maggie Bra 8140, which both come in your size. Candis from Chicago, IL

the bra is okay. it works, but the wiring on the side is a little long and tends to poke me if I bend over to pick up something. Angela from Grand Prairie

The best sports bra that I've ever bought! Very supportive and controls the breast bouncing amazingly well! The bra is very supportive on the band and the cups are true to size the four hook closure makes this bra very supportive in the band! I love this sports bra it supports my breast and limits the bounce very well! I haven't bought a sports bra with this much support wearing the bra! If you need amazing support and less bounce this bra is the best for you! Gene from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I really like this bra. I have back support with little to no movement. The main thing that i like is the lift. It lifts them off my rib cage easing the pressure. The only bad thing is the under wire. I'm not use to wearing one so I took mine out but still has great support. Thanks for this site. I posted a comment on my fb & gave the site!!

The bra seems nicely made, but unfortunately your sizing conversion chart was vastly inaccurate. It said that if I was a 36I (US) to go with 36G. I tried both G and GG just to be safe, and the GG is about 3-4 sizes too small. Emily from Santa Cruz, CA

Very nice. Really comfortable and supportive. Really like that the straps are fully adjustable (not just adjustable on a short section of the strap). Given that I'm petite, I often run into bras where the straps are far too long, even when adjusted. JJ from Oregon

Nice fit. The usual thing with shorter women is the band-kind of wide so not as comfy. However, the support and overall feel is nice. MJ from Buffalo/NY

This bra was better than the other I bought! The only bad thing was that the band wad too big, and it doesn't come in a 32 :( But besides that, it was great support, separated my boobs, soft, not stretchy and totally worth the price! No bounce a lot, so I felt comfortable moving up and down the stairs fast, no pain! I would recommend this to a friend for sure! Tinkerbell

Just received this bra in the mail yesterday and have yet to actually workout in it. However, I'm wearing it today and have to say it's extremely comfortable. As a size 40G, it's been extremely difficult to find a sports bra in my size, that holds me in and up like I need without spillage on the sides or feeling like I'm in a vice. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's workout with this new bra. Two things of note though: the straps tend to "creak" a little bit and it does come up rather high in the front. Neither of thses issues bother me but, they might be a concern for someone else. Elomi is fast becoming my favorite bra maker for my size. Heather from Seattle, WA

Love this bra! It's great for working out in or everyday use. The supportive wire that contours just below the armpit can be a bit painful if the bra draws up as a result of washing; however, once it is re-shaped and sized accordingly with the straps and band, the poking from the wire immediately goes away! Great bra for the price; really glad with my purchases! Monique from Chicago, IL, USA

The only plus was that it did seem to be supportive, But all i could think about when i put it on was that it looked like the fake boobs Robin Williams wore as Mrs. Doubtfire! Maybe it was the nude color? The bra was big, made my boobs a weird pointy shape and just really wasn't very comfortable to be honest.

Elomi Response: The sportsbras usually run tight in the band and the cup but not by several cup sizes. The energise bra is a great style, you might try the 36HH or 36J. Hope this bra works for you! Great support in all cup sizes. Sara from Boston, MA

I was so excited for this bra to come in the mail. In all the reviews I'd read and comparisons I'd done, this bra looked like it could be The One. After first receiving a size that was too small and exchanging it, I finally got to try on the right size. Let me just say that getting the thing on was an ordeal, as it's the most difficult bra to get into. It's very durable and the cups have tremendous support, but there's no flexibility at all, which just made my breasts look stiff and unnatural. The band, while snug like it's supposed to be, moved around quite a bit and caused me a horrible rash from the rubbing. I was so disappointed in a bra I thought would work so well for me.

Elomi Response: I am sorry the energise did not work for you. IF the band was moving around then the band was too large and you needed a 40HH. The band on your bras should never move when you lift your arms, sit or stand and should always be fastened in the loosest hook when you first start wearing it. When your bra eventually stretches out then you can move the hooks inward to the middle hooks. This will allow your bras to last longer. Brooke from Reno, NV
