Too small

Perfect compression, perfect length

I'm really impressed. These fit so well and feel so good. I'm going to save up and buy some more--they're great under dresses.

Essential Bralette

Most comfortable Bra out there!

I was skeptical of how merino wool is very different than the others but Branwyn made me change my mind and I love it! Odor resistant, comfortable, no matter what weather you’re at, hopefully it’s durable to have for the rest of my life!

Awesome!

Really love these! Was specifically looking for this shape and seamless and these are perfect. Feel as comfy as some of my previously favorite undies (which were synthetic), but I feel so much better wearing them knowing they are merino :)

Great bralette for a bigger chest

I was hesitant to try this bralette and I am so glad I did- in 3 different colors. I bought the large; I am a small person 5’2”, about 115 lbs with a larger chest. They fit SO nice and do offer some support and shape quite nicely. I really like the material and the adjustable straps.

Pretty Good

Not terribly scratchy but noticeably different texture from what your boobs are used to. Wish it were a little longer. Might buy another if they go on sale.

Essential Busty Bra
Laura (Minneapolis, US)
My go to bra

I now own three of the busty bras! I wore them all the time before I got pregnant and in my early pregnancy. The band didn’t feel great on the busty near the later months (the regular one would probably be fine). I bought my third one to use as a pull aside nursing bra with the thought that if it got super stretched out, I still had two others for when I was done nursing. Pleased to say it’s still in great condition after a year of that!!

Essential Racerback Sports Bra
J Philly (New York, US)
Kept but too long in the torso

Compression good (high!). Fabric good. Color lovely. But as a busty short gal, this is too long in the torso. Would be great if there was a short/busty version.

Hi J Philly,

Thank you so much for your feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear you liked the compression and fabric, and we hear you on the fit. We'll be sure to pass your comments along to our design team for future consideration. Your input truly helps us improve!

Love it—my new favorite bra!

I didn’t think I could love any bra more than the Busty, but I was wrong. The essential racerback sports bra is perfect in every way. It’s incredibly supportive (36DD here), breathable and comfortable, and I love that it’s thick enough that my headlights don’t show. The size medium fits me perfectly and it’s now my go-to everyday bra. I just wish it came in more colors, I’d love a flesh-tone so I could wear it under white tees and tanks.

Soooo freaking comfortable!

I am a Branwyn newbie, going to Spain in a few weeks with 8 women to walk El Camino. Many have recommended merino wool clothes and undergarments. I took a chance and I’m glad I did. I am a 36 DD and the med fits perfectly. Love the back coverage and the straps. Because of my shape, my front band rolls up a bit, but it is still comfortable. Highly recommend.

Essential Bralette
Mary (South Bend, US)
Almost perfect!

The Bralette is very comfortable which I love! I would wear it everyday if I didn’t have to worry about my nipples showing in certain shirts. I wish the fabric was a bit thicker or there was a thin pad option.

So comfortable

I've been wearing these for months now and they've held up really well. They have great coverage, feel really comfortable, and hold zero odors. I'm happy with the purchase and would buy more in the future.

Great bra

I purchased the busty bra a number of months ago and it's held up so well with the summer heat. Im typically a size C34/36 but opted for the small for a snugger fit. It's comfortable for working in the yard and I also wear it while exercising. I sweat pretty good but it never has an odor and hand washes easily in the shower. Would love to see a more traditional bra one day with clasps in the back. But this version is great!

I was worried

My skin is very sensitive to fabric and I live in Florida where its been over 100 for weeks. I worried it would be itchy. When I first touched it I was concerned I would not like the way it felt when I got sweaty but thankfully it does not itch or make my skin crawl the way plastic based fabrics do.

Essential Compressive Shorts
Sarah (Kansas City, US)
Almost but not quite

I'm 5'2" and 130lbs with a slight booty. I usually wear an XS or S in bike shorts (depends on the brand). I bought a S in these and they were so uncomfortably tight I could barely breathe. I considered getting a Medium or Large, but my other issue is due to my height, these shorts came up above my ribcage almost to my bra line. It would be incredible to have these be in a medium rise. I generally wear high-rise pants/shorts but these were extra-high-rise.

Hi Sarah,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We really appreciate it. We're sorry to hear that the fit of the Essential Compressive Shorts didn’t work out for you and that they felt uncomfortably tight and high-waisted.

We can see that you've already returned them, and we're glad you were able to take that step.Your comments about the sizing and rise are incredibly helpful, and we’ll be sure to pass them along to our design team for future consideration. We're always looking for ways to improve, and insights like yours make a big difference.

Thank you for giving them a try!

Bralette

Gives me good support and comfort. Recently was out in it all day sweating and it did not get nasty wet. Also did not have odor. I am amazed by this material. I will be buying more.

Very comfortable

Bought 3 of them, I’m a 36C and size L is comfortable and supportive enough for everyday wear

Bra is comfortable but little support. It has a lot of coverage, such that can only wear with higher neck tops. Band at bottom rolls and becomes uncomfortable.

Bra is comfortable but doesn’t provide support.

Great bra!

I’m slowly replacing my workout wardrobe and bras have been the hardest switch. This one is great for me and I’ll be back! For reference, I wear 34B and the small fits great.

Fits and feels great!

I was looking for active, quick dry underwear for camping and canoe trips and came across these. They seem like they fit the bill! I haven't used them for canoeing trips yet but they are secure, supportive, and comfortable. I am usually a S/M but sized up to large based on reviews. I appreciate the coverage they provide without digging in!

Essential Busty Bra

Love it - busty + short folks would love a little more adjustability

Love these. I have 2 and will buy more. Shockingly, aside from being comfy and really great for sweat-wicking, and soft, it fits my Big Girls pretty well! (have both XL and XXL; actually prefer XL because more compression, but my size is 40H-I, hence the 'remarkable'). I would LOVE a tiny bit more adjustmentness on straps but get that I have a very short torso. I WISH that there was a way to have a short torso version of the racerback!
