Playtex Women's 18 Hour Front-Close Wireless Bra, 4-Way TruSUPPORT Bra with Flex Back

When I moved to a larger city, I assumed Playtex 18-hour bras would be easy to find in stores. Surprisingly, this was not the case. I found brand names that were new to me, in what I was told were fashionable bra styles. To my frustration and disappointment, none of them were what I really looked for. I don't use underwear to make a fashion statement. Bra ads to the contrary, this has never made a difference to my having a happy, satisfying social life or dating life. I simply like wearing the well-fitting, discreet, dependable, durable bras I've bought and worn for decades. The bras I found in stores lack a supportive band under the cups and around the body. They also have puffy, padded cups that are uncomfortable from the start and ride up as the day goes by. The newer styles were pricey and a waste of my money. I very soon gave up and tossed them in the trash bin. The one benefit I gained was once again being personally, privately fitted to determine my current, correct bra size. This matters because every woman's bra size changes over time. It's a pleasure to find my personal favorite bras offered at Amazon and at a reasonable price. I knew the exact size bra to order. Playtex provides the supportive band and padded straps I prefer. They're my choice for comfortable wear on long days at work, for travel, or for just kicking back at home. The front closure is also a plus. It's now easier for me to get dressed, not having to reach around to the back. ** If the hooks or eye clasps need adjustment I would use a small, lightweight flat head screwdriver to carefully, slowly pry the the hook gap wider or use a small, light tack hammer to carefully and slowly tap the gap closer to the garment. I personally wouldn't attempt these slight adjustments or even attempt to connect the hook-and-eye fasteners while dressing without also wearing my eyeglasses. ** Amazon, please keep selling this brand and product. I wouldn't want to buy or wear any other. Playtex 18-hour bras really are my personal favorite.

Beige in color, fits perfectly for a 36C, no underwire, perfect for the money I spent, very durable and supportative

Not top quality, but very comfortable. Good fit.

I have been buying this bra for years. I’m going to give the honest truth about it. The negatives: can occasionally dig in on the sides if too tight or rub a sore spot. If I have to I stick a soft footy or thin sock in the side. The top or the bottom hook (rarely both) may come open (use a safety pin if you’re scared you’re gonna have a wardrobe malfunction). The bra needs stretched out a bit at first. It’s pretty stiff. You might even think you’ve bought the wrong size, and there is no front adjustment. It’s the same size unless you rig a way to alter it. I don’t mind this at all. Once you get your fit, you’re good to go. Maybe size up in the diameter, but not the cup size. The adjustable straps will kind of work their way loose, but you can easily fix that. Give this bra a fair shot though. The positives: I throw this in the washer, hang to dry. No underwire. Good coverage on the front. You’re not going to show cleavage with this one. Stuff ‘em in good if you have to! It’s very easy to put on. You’re not going to strain your shoulders reaching back to fasten it. Comfortable, padded straps that never fall off my shoulders— never. Gives me the best support of any bra I’ve ever worn. Does it make your girls pointy? No, I don’t think so. You just may not be expecting the amount of support this gives. If you’re in the larger size, you’re gonna be amazed and until you get used to it maybe a little self-conscious. Don’t be. They’re sitting loud and proud like they ought to be! And don’t try to smash them down. Put your stuff out there. That’s how we’re built. I have had no back issues at all thanks to the support. Will probably wear this bra until I die. No joke! Suggestion— give us more colors!!!! Please!!! What I wouldn’t give for a rich fuchsia or purple. Hope this helps you. Until you find that right bra, you really won’t be completely yourself! This bra becomes a part of me and I don’t notice it one bit. I no longer worry that people might mistake me for going bra less.

I was really hoping I’d like this one. After all, it’s a brand I like and that fits me well (usually) and I like their designs. Usually. Unfortunately the edges are lined with some sort of scalloped lace that irritates my skin around the straps and under the breasts. There’s only one line of hooks, and there does seem to be a little shrinkage after washing (or maybe I gained weight in one week, I don’t know, ugh). So it’s not adjustable around the chest. I do like the straps. Those are comfortable. Plenty of support for my D-sized girls. The front cuts just a hair too much into the front of my underarm and with that scalloped edge it gets increasingly irritating during the day. I was planning on buying more since my left shoulder suddenly got painful and I can’t , but I’ll have to go with another newer (?) brand without the edging and more adjustability in the front. The beige is good, and yes, it gives good support.

Relatively costly. But very good Product in all respect.

Très confortable aucun regret

Muy buena calidad

Very comfortable with larger hook/eye than others I tried so a lot easier to do up. Can wear all day with no discomfort!
