Review: Comfortable sleep bra - Ordered larger band. - I use this as a sleep bra and it is very comfortable. According to measurements, my bra size is 38D but I find most bras are uncomfortable because the band is intolerably tight. I ordered a 40 band and it doesn't slip around or ride up. Cup was mildly supportive and fit well but I doubt it is enough support for serious workouts. Haven't washed yet and since I hand wash and air dry bras, I don't expect problems.
Review: Soft, comfortable, cool, and surprisingly supportive - I am sensitive to synthetic fabrics, and need a front closure for my arthritic days. So I thought I'd give this Carole Martin 95% cotton bra a try. It looked too small right out of the package but it has the right amount of "give" to cover me without spilling out. I like the gathered area at front/center where the hook/eye closure is located because it lays flat against my sternum, prevents uniboob (ood design also for when one breast is larger than the other). The band is cut wide and has a firm yet stretchy quality that gives me a snug fit that does not dig in or roll/fold over (even when I'm couch slouching). The cut is generous (no skimping on fabric or notions here), and the straps are wide enough to balance this design in a way that the straps do not put pressure on my shoulders at all. The fabric is high quality, good thick weight, opaque, with the right amount of stretch to hold my side/front breast tissue UP and firmly ( yet gently) in place. Since it is not bulky, I tried my expensive underwire bra on "Over" this bra and found this bra can double as a great "under bra- liner" too (for moisture wicking and to reduce underwire chafing/pressure point pain). I am keeping this size 36, as it fits true to my size (36D). I may order another one in size 38 for my "fluffy" days (that will double as a sleep bra). I Like the beige color (will buy other colors in future). I have been searching for a bra like this for quite awhile, glad my search is over. Thank you Carole Martin, for designing such a comfortable bra that is affordable, looks/fits like your ad photo, and is true to description/fit-guide. After my first 8 hours of wearing, I wanted to keep it on (instead of slingshotting it across the room). That's as close to "forgetting I have it on", as it gets for me.

## Features

- FRONT HOOK AND EYE CLOSURE - Opens and closes at the front, so there is no reaching behind your back. A common choice for elderly women and anyone who finds reaching behind difficult.
- 95 PERCENT COTTON - A soft breathable cotton and spandex blend rather than nylon, so it wears cooler against the skin through a long day.
- EXTRA WIDE STRAPS - Cut wide to spread the weight across your shoulders and ease back strain. They are a fixed length and do not adjust, so go by the size chart.
- NO UNDERWIRE, NO FOAM PADS - Wireless and unpadded. It holds and covers rather than lifting, so if you want shaping or a bra that lifts a heavier bust, choose another style.
- FITS B, C AND D CUPS - Expandable cups mean there is no cup size to work out. One underbust measurement in inches is all you need. Bands 34 to 44, a long standing favorite among older women and seniors.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Straps too long, otherwise great sleep bra
*by N***S on June 19, 2021*

Update: I'm a 36 F/FF in uk sizes now, 36G in US sizes. Weight 180ish, L-XL in top, 12-14 in dresses. My underbust measures 35". I bought this in a 36 after the 38 got too big some time ago. I'm back to buy another one in the same size. I did end up cutting a good inch & a half off each strap & sewed them back together - by hand rather than setting up my sewing machine. With the straps smaller, and now that my cup size is a little smaller, I love this bra even more & all of my breast tissue, even though I have more loose skin than I like to think about, is contained. I've lost a ton of muscle while losing weight (was actually in a 34band size for a while, trying to build back some muscle) and I've found tight bands hurt now, where they never did before. I'm also drowning under the cost of constantly trying to keep up with changing expensive bra sizes. So at this point? I'm pretty much wearing this bra any time I'm not going somewhere fancier than the pick up line at my son's school. It's comfortable. Breathable. Separates enough to avoid uniboob. I don't know why they make it with crazy long straps. But it's worth the effort to fix it imo. (currently a 36GG/38G in UK sizes 38I/36J in US sizes - size 18dress, weight 231, height 5'7.5) I'm 45 & I've recently lost more than 80lbs. Which means my breasts suddenly need some support at night. I am not thrilled about this, but this bra helps to soften the blow a little. Unlike most sports bras, sleep bras, and bralettes, this is one of the few that bother to separate the cups, which is important to me. If I wanted to sleep with my breasts in a combined puddle, I wouldn't need the sleep bra. It also makes me feel a little better about walking around in it under my PJs when I wake up in the morning or before bed. Uniboob never makes me feel good. No, it isn't a super flattering bra I'd wear out of the house in general, but around the house & for sleeping, it's my go to. Enough so that I'm back to buy a second one cause I hate when this one is in the wash or I can't find it. I've never been someone who has any problem hooking however many hooks are necessary behind my back, and I usually prefer the adjustability of a back closure. However in a sleep bra, not having the hooks on my back is far more comfortable. In front, they aid with the cup separation. The one striking flaw is the straps. They are not adjustable, which isn't all bad. I wouldn't particularly want a plastic slider digging into my shoulders while I try to sleep. However, that means they've set them for women with very low set breasts I guess. Or, maybe the idea is greater sleep comfort? Either way, it means there is almost no support for anyone with higher set breasts. (for reference, my 38band bra straps are all shortened about as far as they go, my 36s about 60-70%) I keep telling myself i'm going to set up my sewing machine, cut the straps & re-sew them smaller. However, I'm a lazy sewist so they're currently folded over & safety pinned. There aren't a lot of bras that aren't cup sized that hold all of my breast tissue, but this does the job.
