very comfortable, excellent fit, soft, moderate support. Perfect for someone with sensitive skin - and even those without who want softness and support. B

I bought this bra to replace the underwire bras that I had been wearing. I found the fit to be accurate and comfortable, and the support to equal the support that I had been getting in the underwire bras that I was replacing. I love the full coverage and the cotton fabric. Dolores from Hinsdale, Illinois USA

This bra fits perfectly and is very comfortable, unlike the irritating under wire types. After trying many other styles - EUREKA I HAVE FOUND THE RIGHT ONE FOR ME !!!!! Thank you HerRoom for carrying such a wide selection and your ease of purchase along with fast delivery was outstanding. I will be back. Pat from St. George/Utah/USA

Love this bra. After purchasing and returning many cotton soft cup bra's (thanks for your great service) due to poor support, this is a keeper! Great as an all day bra, better support than all other cotton softcup I've tried (except my old Warner's cotton soft cup that have been discontinued). Not sure how good it would be as a true "sport" bra and I didn't order until last because most sport bras have more coverage than I want. They should change the name, they'd sell more! Grenier cups are full so I ordered down one cup size in the neutral and my regular cup size in the black per another review and both fit great. I have very sensitive skin so cotton is a must and this does the trick. Barbara from Gardnerville, NV, USA

This is my second purchase of the Grenier 8505 cotton molded sports bra. It met my specifications of a sport bra of cotton that did not have underwires (not that easy to find). I was very satisfied with the bras that I purchased earlier and the new ones have been what I had expected. Nancy from California

I did not like the thinness of the material in the cups. I did not like the way the breasts seemed to sag when wearing the bra. I was looking for support but didn't see it in this bra. I exchanged it for the Bali Cool Stretch Wire Free Bra. Mary S. from Vaughn, MT

Uncomfortable...too much fabric!! Phyllis from Omaha, NE. USA

This is a very nice, comfortable bra. I don't like underwire or padding but bras without these are getting harder to find, especially in smaller cup sizes. The sizing was a little difficult as I measured 36A and that size was too small. The 36B is perfect. Good support, it looks good under clothing and doesn't ride up like so many sport-type bras I've owned. I will definitely buy more in the future. BJ from Lynnwood, WA

I never thought I would find such a great no-wire cotton bra! It is comfortable and offers sufficient support. I am so happy to have finally found a bra that works for me. Klara from Portland, OR USA

The bra is comfortable and washes well (and doesn't turn gray). the hooks need some strengthening. They often get twisted in the dryer. By the way, the bras I recently ordered were delivered within 24 hours. Amazing.

HerRoom Response: First, a bra should NEVER be put in the dryer. Additionally, a bra should ALWAYS be hooked shut when being washed or dried to prevent the hooks from catching on other garments or the inside of the machine. LPB from New York

I have been wearing this style of Grenier bra for over 10 years and was devastated when my original supplier decided not to carry it anymore. What a joy to discover Her Room carried it. It is the most comfortable bra I have ever worn. I have sloping shoulders (not the broad shoulders of some ladies) and find that the straps do not keep sliding off my shoulders. Kudos to Grenier for a great bra! Yvette from Uxbridge, MA

I was having trouble with brassieres that kept fraying or pinching, but this one bra held up extremely well and it was comfortable and smooth on the skin. I looked at the tag and it said "Grenier." I can't remember where I ordered it. But I decided to order Grenier by name, and I found a photograph of the bra style I owned. It was this one. There are no seams to irritate and rip, and the soft stretchy band at the bottom protects against tearing through wash after wash. It's not a molded bra in the traditional sense - but that band and the cotton pocket sections under the cup act like an underwire to hold the "merchandise" in place. It is a wonderful bra, more comfortable than some bras a size bigger. Rose from Trenton

My first time ordering and to be honest I really didn't think this would fit - who buys bras thru the mail? But, miracle of miracles it fit and fits great. Comfortable, good support but not restrictive. Perfect for everyday wear. Would definitely buy again. Dana from Ironwood/MI/US

This bra is okay. Better than most, but that's a low bar. I'll probably order another couple and use it as my everyday bra. Kari from San Jose, CA

This is an extremely comfortable bra, especially for breast cancer survivors. I had a lumpectomy and lymph nodes removed a couple of years ago. I find this bra is just wonderful...no underwire and yet it gives me a good shape. Nancy from Asheville NC USA

I have been wearing this style since 2000 when I had a lumpectomy. It is very comfortable, looks good under clothes, and wears well. It is not easy to find in retail stores so I was very pleased to find it at HerRoom. I was pleased with the ease and speed of HerRoom's service! Margaret from Livonia, MI USA

This is the most support I've found in a soft cup bra, and the most comfortable fabric. The covered underband is a big plus. Melinda from New York, NY

I agree with the other person's comment on the black bras sizing differently - mine now only fits after many washings and stretching. Otherwise, I love this bra! I wear this style only as my everyday bra. It provides good support and also eliminates "see through" with any sheer fabrics. Shari from Rural Hall, NC

I love this bra. It is VERY comfortable to wear. Please note, if you order the black bra, order 1 size larger (i.e. normally 34C...order 36D) No matter what the company says, they must dye it black after making the bra and it is too small. Andrea from Ontario, Canada

I hunted everywhere at stores for an unpadded 36 or 38A bra. (Why do manufacturers assume that because you are an A cup that you want to be bigger?) A friend found this bra and gave it to me for my birthday. I love it! I finally had to order more because I couldn't stand to even take it off to wash it. This is the most comfortable bra ever and very natural looking but with just a little support. Rahima from Iowa City/IA/US

I love the Grenier 8505. Fits well, comfortable for sports, yet still has a hint of seduction to it. Penny from MI
