What is the most comfortable bra you have ever bought?

I've always been measured and fitted by M&S. I wear wired bras because as a 34E or sometimes an F, I need the support a wired bra gives. Their quality has dropped though and they certainly don't last as long as they used to.

I agree with others that comfort doesn't seem to be easily found. I'm not that interested if a bra looks pretty, I just want it to fit me properly and have straps that don't dig painfully into my shoulders.

I have yet to find one but intend to give the ones SHYSAL mentioned on Temu a try.

I’ve always put my bra on back to front and spun it around. I’ve tried front fastening but the aren’t adjustable in the same way as back fastening and seem to quickly lose their ‘oomph’.
I like M & S Flexifit in both wired and unwired versions. So comfortable and with good support.

Another vote for M&S Flexifit bras. I recently lost a lot of weight so needed to buy new bras and wanted to stop wearing underwires. These are so comfortable, wash well and are very supportive.

In 2023 I had the misfortune of being diagnosed with breast cancer following a routine mammogram (no symptoms, no lumps and stage 3! - lesson here, please attend for mammogram when you are invited). I had surgery as well as chemo and radiotherapy. The instruction ref bras were, wide straps, padding if needed and definitely no wires. I found the most comfortable bra ever, and still wear them to this day. It was a George at ASDA post surgery bra, only available on line. It does have fastenings, but front fastenings which are easy to do up. It comes with removable pads too. These bras really do get my vote.

A cheapie pull on one off Temu or AliExpress. I have fibromyalgia plus other things and it's the only one I can bear if I have to wear a bra. I ordered a few. FB sells them at vastly inflated prices.

I bought an Anita twin from Bella di Notte, more expensive than I’d like, £62, it is so very comfortable, wide straps, no padding or itchy seams. But definitely fasten in front then pull it up.

The last bra I bought was a lounge bra from Sainsburys, nice soft cotton and no fancy lace to irritate. Sold in packs of two and really cheap.

I’m another one saying get properly measured and not at M&S. I was once measured there around a thick winter jumper. I have larger cup sizes and go to bravissimo. Since using them I can say I’ve never had an uncomfortable bra. I think possibly wearing a too large band size is where most problems stem from

Why do you all need to get your hands around your back to fasten your bra I never undo mine I just step into mine have for many years

You must have very slim hips. I am jealous!

It's ages since I bought one from Sainburys Their sports bras are very comfortable.
I've also bought a very similar product from Avon .They stock more interesting colours .
A very busty friend buys Belvia bras from the net .

Another vote here for the big bloomers company, I have only recently found them and the bras are extremely comfortable. I have joint issues and the pull on style is an enormous help.

Are high quality, supportive, comfort bras.
High backs are comfortable and give good cover

Wash well and last well.

Find the size that suits - customer services are very helpful, reviews are positive

I have some and use them at home and for hospital scans to avoid undressing and struggling with bra hooks.

Gorgeous cheerful colours too

I wear Conturve bras and find them very comfortable.

Me too! I have never been able to do up my bra at the back, even as a teenager. Since injuring a shoulder I can't pull on over my head either.

I was about to suggest that as it works great.

Since my rotor cuff shoulder injury I have been unable to put my left hand behind my back so could not fasten a bra
Solved the problem by buying front fastening bras from the big river company.

"Gemma" and only £13.99, 90% cotton and so comfortable I shall never return to back fastening. Very soft but supportive and even my uncomfortable shoulder doesn't object.

Why not put the bra around your midriff, fasten, then just turn to to the back, put arms through straps.

The black Gemma with pink flowers is the best I find, all cotton too.😃

The key to a comfortable bra is wearing the correct size.

Go to a shop that specialises in bra’s, get fitted regularly. What size we were last year may not be what we are today.

Hand wash or use little individual laundry bags that go in the washing machine to keep them in shape.

Ive never found a comfortable bra and they are making them with such horrible material now. M&S have done something with their sizing , so I now wear bra extenders with all bras as I have a very broad back. The Temu ones that someone posted look interesting as the other problem I have is they never seem to make shoulder straps wide enough to give good support. I'm too large for the vest things. I'm wearing a bra that's falling apart at the moment.

My needs have changed over the years. The most comfortable bra I have at the moment is this £10 bralette from M&S.
