Carole Martin Crossover Bra with Enhanced Comfort and Adjustable Hook and Eye Closure

Hate bras but this is comfortable

Worse than going braless. No support. I'm a C-cup and it was too small. I wanted front closure to make it easier to put on- the front closure was much more difficult to use than my old bra. The elastic was uncomfortable.

Special thanks to the reviewer TheresaB who described their issues finding their 99 year old mom a bra. My mom is 93 and I could relate to that review so much, I have literally been looking for over a year for a bra and I have returned so many. I took a chance an ordered this one (it arrived the next day!) and my mother loves it! I can't tell you what a relief this is. It is well made, it's soft, and it is pretty reasonably priced. I'm taking away one star because the straps are extended all the way and her one and only complaint is a minor one that she says it's sort of a little tight in the area where the breast and armpit meet. I suspect this may be that she was so used to a bra that was so worn out and stretched that that part feels different, but I may revise this to a 5-star rating over time depending on how much she really likes it or loves it. I was with her for about 4 or 5 hours when she was first wearing it, and I did not see her pulling it, tugging it, adjusting it, or even mentioning it in anyway, so I suspect it was quite comfortable for her really. **UPDATE** Well, she stopped wearing it due to the tight armpit area issue so I am still on the hunt, but since it was too late to return it for refund I am trying it for myself. I prefer a padded bra for work clothes and this is far too thin, but I am finding it to be pretty comfortable and not at all tight in the armpits, (I think it's her saggy flesh in that area that it's cutting into). although if I'd bought it for me I'd chosen a larger band size.

It is a really comfortable bra. I went to a 38 instead of my usual 36 cause of the fabric and design and as an asthmatic I can not have bras tight across my chest. Very supportive and cool in tempo I live in Florida

Difficult for me to connect & unfasten hooks. I feel I need some more support than bra offers. Material is very comfortable next to skin.

I bought this bra & regret it. The band has 2 sets of hooks that need to be fastened & they are tricky. The band flips under in front & the closure digs in. I felt like I was spilling out all over. The material isn't very comfy & tends to be more scratchy. I couldn't stand wearing it for long & swapped it out for a zippered front brand from Wanayou, which I found to be exceptionally soft & comfortable, with full coverage.

Love this bra. It's easy to put on and fits perfectly. I just pull it over my head, rather than unclasping it each time. I will be ordering another one.

I have been searching for months for an easy front closure bra for my 99 year old mother. I went from leisure bras to velcro, zipper, button and snap fronts. Nothing seemed to please her. I returned each and every one. After giving it a final try, I came across this bra. The description seemed to be all I was looking for. I ordered it and when it came, I was pleasantly surprised. The quality was great. There were only two hooks to deal with, the straps were adjustable and the fabric was so soft and silky. The only problem was that the first was a bit large. No problem with that. I plan on ordering at least 3 more in a smaller size. I would recommend this bra for elderly and arthritic ladies. I think they will love it. (The price is right too.)

Very comfortable. Love the front closure. Lightweight, good support.

I tend to buy front fastening racer back bras, but usually need help to fasten them because I have a moderate disability. When I saw this, I thought it was worth a try, especially since it was listed amongst adaptive clothing. However, the double fasteners make getting dressed in the morning far more challenging than necessary. Today, I fastened just one set of hooks, which was far more practical, but not as comfortable. My search for the ideal bra for me continues.

Nice but not much support.

My mom hates it. She says it's like wearing a bra inside out. The front fastening hooks on the inside chafe and leave a nasty sore area under her breasts.

I ordered this for my Mother. The closure in the front is familiar as it is hook and eyes. The closure has multiple choices to make it a perfect fit. Mom is in a home and the nursing staff liked it once they figured out how it worked. I ordered a second one because she liked it so well.
