Playtex Women's Wireless Bra, 18 Hour Plus-Size Bras Available, Ultimate Lift, Moisture-Wicking, Single or 2-Pack

Everyone knows your bras eventually get old and so worn that they feel uncomfortable. I hadn't bought new bras in years, so I decided to invest in some. Since many bras are expensive, I try to get as many years out of them as possible, but eventually, they become unusable. I remember seeing Playtex bras some time ago and searching for them. I've used them for years, but like I said, I don't buy bras often. I prefer bras with padded shoulders because they feel much more comfortable, so I wanted this one. I was happy to see they were on sale when I bought them. This Playtex bra is an 18-hour style designed to lift and support all day. It doesn't have an underwire but features padding on the shoulder straps. There are three hooks for each of the three closure options, totaling nine hooks, allowing a couple of inches for adjustment. Because there are three hooks per section, I find it more secure when I fasten them. I bought the nude color, which suits many skin tones and blends in naturally. After receiving the the nude ones, I saw some more which were four dollars cheaper and they were white, so I bought some of those too because I like how they feel. I like that they fit well, the straps are padded and comfortable, and the design is attractive. These are priced very reasonably; buying directly from Playtex costs about twice as much. The instructions are to machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low. They are made in El Salvador from 81% nylon and 19% spandex (cup and center belt) and 92% nylon and 8% spandex (back). I always put my bras in lingerie bags and hang them to dry after washing them in the washing machine, which helps them last longer. Using a lingerie bag prevents them from twisting around other clothing during laundry. For sizing, they are true to size, so if you buy your regular size, they should fit well and be comfortable. I really like this bra because I feel it provides excellent support. I like this bra and ordered several. I opted for the 18-hour style because I can just put it on and forget I'm wearing one. Sometimes I work long hours, and it’s nice not to worry about how I feel in my clothing. If you've seen those expensive bra ads, I think this is a much better deal—you get comfort and support without the cost. these are my reasons for highly recommend this bra.

This bra needs to be broken in. It did not fit well when I first tried it on. I needed to wear it for about 2 weeks and then it stretched to fit around my shape. It is kind of like how jeans used to be. Now it fits perfectly and is SOOOOOOO comfortable. I am surprised at how nice it is. It also needs to be washed to get rid of whatever stiffening product they use in manufacturing. I tend to run warm and thankfully, this bra doesn't have so much extra material that it heats me up even more. This is one sturdy product. It means business. If I wear a light pink t-shirt there might be a tiny, tiny bit of headlights on a freezing day, but barely noticeable. Most tops and most conditions this bra is discreet. The straps are the selling point. I have rotator issues in both shoulders and need wider straps, and these are a hit. Not too thin and not too thick. Usually, it is the strap or the area underneath that makes me rip off a bra and this bra has both areas reasonably comfortable. I haven't been writing many reviews lately, but felt this was worth it as it is a good product I can stand behind and recommend to others. I purchased another. The reasonable price is helpful as well to those of us watching our wallets, and attracted me to this item initially. Much better than expected. I am also glad it is not one of those ugly orthopedic bras. I like the trim.

Okie, I want soooooo bad to give this a solid 5 out of 5 stars. It's perilously close to being a 5 out of 5 star bra...but there are a few things that miffed me and made me dock a star. The first being, I measured once, I measured twice, I followed all of the online fitting instructions and purchased a bra that was "my size"by their measurement requirements....except the cups were too big. Agghh. Not a LOT too big, just enough so that the fabric of the cups creased a bit and when wearing a thin tank or t-shirt and you were looking hard at my chest (mind you no one but my husband better be doing that and he was a kind and willing bra purchase assistant) you could see the wrinkled surface of the bra top. It kind of gave the illusion that it was REALLY COLD... *ahem* the ladies know what I'm talking about. I was annoyed at this as the bra says it 's my regular size, I did their measurements to confirm I was buying "my size"in their brand as it was my first playtex branded bra, and it was in fact NOT the right size. But it was bloody frigging comfortable. What a problem to have eh? Seriously, this is a VERY comfortable bra. Also it's the very first bra I have worn, with the exception of exercise ones, where the bra straps don't creep down my shoulders. I always just figured I have narrow shoulder with or roundy shoulders or not enough shoulder hump or low tolerance for tight bra straps..I dunno, but bra strap creep down is so common I hardly noticed any more. So after the slightly baggy cups, the supreme overall comfort I washed and wore it for the day and was thrilled to realize it doesn't creep down the arms! Nice! So I kept this bra and hoped it would tighten up in the cups a wee micro bit upon washing, which it actually did..just a micro bit...not enough to depend on I think...but for me it was enough to feel satisfied. It's certainly not a "too big bra" just...a little loose..aggh I dunno.. Anyways I was so pleased over all I ordered the same one in one cup size smaller and lo and behold PERFECTION!!!!! I was very happy at this point as I figure I have found my every day wear dream bra. Being that it fulfills all these requirements: Affordable. Pretty-ish. Supportive. NO UNDER WIRES. Now comes my other gripe. I want one in black. Do you think I can find one in my size in black? Either it's a bra conspiracy or like literally most of the playtex bra consumers have the exact same bra size and you all have my black bras (I am joking, sort of...ha ha...but seriously) I looked on Amazon. I looked on their own website. I looked in Walmart, on Walmart's website on some other competing big box type department store websites...WHERE IS MY SIZE IN BLACK? Yes it's a first world problem but I feel quite frustrated. I find what I think of as the "perfect bra"(once I figured out my true size) and now I have 2 colour choices, nude or white. I live in the desert, strappy tank tops are the uniform of life for like 10 months of the year. Black and dark tabk tops are excellent livable choices in a hot, dusty, sweat inducing environment. I don't mind my bra straps showing under/beside my tank top straps but it would be nice if they were black. Or at least that dark blue (also not available in my size) I know it's not a big deal but ...it is sort of a big deal. I find what I want, this is what they do, they make bras and underwear and whatnot and apparently just sell out of a popular size and don't restock? I tried another brand since I discovered the lack of black bra in my size...and it's horrible in comparison. I tried other versions of Playtex bras in black one was horrible, scratchy, stiff nasty...I couldn't believe it was the same brand as this bra. I found a passable bra. Somewhere in between horrible and amazing, also by playtex... I hope to find they re-stock my size in black soon. Anyways, so I'll boil it down to a shorthand review in case you're a skimmer. Sizing is unpredictable as the cups run loose. Limited colours in some sizes.

I tried the Playtex 18 Hour wireless bra and it’s very comfortable for everyday wear. The wire-free design provides support without the poking or pressure that sometimes comes with underwire bras. The straps are wide and cushioned, which helps distribute the weight evenly and keeps them from digging into the shoulders. I also like the full-coverage cups because they give a smooth look under clothing and provide good support. The fabric feels soft and breathable, making it comfortable enough to wear for long hours. It works well for daily activities, whether at work, running errands, or relaxing at home. Overall, this is a comfortable and supportive bra that balances lift and softness. It’s a good option if you prefer a wireless bra that still offers structure and coverage.

Best bra I've ever worn. So comfy i could sleep in it

You know your bras are old and so worn out that they no longer hold you up, no matter how much you tighten the straps. This was the case for me since I hadn't bought new bras in YEARS so I decided it was time to invest in some bras. I used to spend a lot of money on each bra from an expensive store (shhh, it's a secret!) and, while I loved them, it didn't seem to be very practical to me if I could find less expensive bras that were good quality and could do just as good of a job. I remember seeing Playtex bras when I was much younger and started searching for them. This seemed to be a popular choice among many people so I chose one of these to test it out. This Playtex bra is an 18 hour bra meant to lift and support all day. It doesn't have an underwire and it's lightly padded on the shoulder straps. The cups aren't padded and there are three hooks for each of the three closure sizes for a total of nine hooks. I purchased the nude color which is a nice, light color that is good for a lot of light-colored and dark-colored clothes. Washing instructions are machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low. It is made in El Salvador of 81% nylon and 19% spandex (cup and center belt) and 92% nylon and 8% spandex (back). I always put my bras in lingerie bags in the washing machine and hang them up to dry. For sizing purposes, I am typically a 36D and ordered a 36D in this bra. It fits perfectly so I'd say you will most likely want to order your normal size. This is a full-coverage bra so it goes up a little higher on your chest. I like the fact that it fits me nicely, the straps are padded and comfortable and the design is attractive. The reason I'm not a big fan of this bra is because I don't feel it's very supportive. I usually wear underwire bras and thought I'd try this because it seems to be a popular choice. Even though I tighten the straps, I still feel like I'm drooping because I don't feel the bottom part holds me up enough. I end up adjusting myself several times throughout the day (fortunately, I'm a stay-at-home mom). The other reason I don't really like this bra is because it isn't padded. I don't need a lot of padding but I like some padding to hide the fact that I get cold. It was very easy to see that I was cold when I wore this bra, which my husband was delighted to point out to me. Since this particular bra doesn't suit me well, I ended up purchasing Playtex Women's Secrets Body Revelations Underwire Bra, Black Jacquard,36D which I LOVE and ordered several of them! I opted to keep this 18-hour bra because I can just use it for when I'm relaxing at home so it will get some use but I don't see myself purchasing anymore of these anytime soon (I'm in my mid-30s so this could change when I get older). I think if you are smaller-chested, this is a good option because it's comfortable, especially if you don't like underwire. I'm bigger on top and prefer padding and underwire so this bra doesn't suit me but others may like it.

It’s crazy but I really do love these bras! I got tired of wearing bulky compressed sports bras and expensive underwire bras. I just wanted something light, easy, comfortable and not too bulky. My wife said you just need to go back to Playtex like my mom used to wear. So to Amazon in search of Playtex I went. I found these. Read tons of reviews. At the time they were only $12, so I ordered a 38DD and a 38DDD. The DDD ended up being the perfect fit. I love the high, supportive sides, the full coverage, 4 hooks and support so much I came back and ordered a black and pearl. They all fit the same. And they look great under t-shirts. If you’re worried about headlights showing, just use Dimrz. There is a little bit of extra material at the top of the cup but it doesn’t bother me. The beige was a bit scratchy at first but after washing it has softened up. Everyone has love hate relationships with bras. For me these work.

If you don’t care about looking sexy underneath your clothes, these bras are so comfortable and practical. They fit amazingly. No painful underwire. They hold you up nicely. The bras last for a very long time even after several washings. As long as you get the right fit, they cover great. They’re nice and breathable. Easy to put on.

Love this bra,fits great and is comfortable.

Excelente calidad. Buena sujeción y buen ajuste. Diseño bonito. Tejido muy suave. Talla correcta. Muy recomendable.

Confort

Bin absolut zufrieden. Super bequem und sitzt tadellos. Material auch nach mehrmaligen waschen wie neu. Ich werde mir wohl noch ein paar mehr davon zulegen.

Perfect in all sense! Material, colour support, design, elastic, even cup padding. Full marks!!
