Zest High Impact Nursing Sports Bra

Like: fits well (I'm a 38D currently), the only nursing bra that provides enough support to go running in and to do cardio kickboxing in (although to have enough bounce support I MUST use the crossback clip to tighten it up a bit more from over the shoulders, note it does have the underwire), I like the clip down cups instead of the velcro straps, is very comfortable.Dislike: can tell when your cold :/ infinitely better if you wear nursing pads inside but I don't like doing that while running, SO expensive (I can't believe I had to spend $80 on a nursing bra with good cardio support).I bought this for a 3 week road trip where we went camping and hiking. I wanted something I could be comfy in all day, and something easy and discrete for feeding my 5 month old. A regular nursing bra did not cut it for the 6 mile hikes we were doing. For someone who works out a lot, I think you should have one of these but in reality most of the time I feed my baby or pump right before I leave for my run, and wear a regular high impact sports bra, and shower/change when I get back. So a lot of the time, I just wear a normal sports bra. If you want a nursing sports bra for everyday wear (not doing any real cardio), there are cheaper bras out there that would work just fine. The other sports bra I tried was the wacoal nursing sports bra which was very comfy still for the hiking and yoga but did not have enough support for my runs and cardio classes. I returned the juno nursing sports bra bc I didn't like the velcro straps (I couldn't unstrap and restrap with only one hand. When you have a squirmy baby and are always around random people, I preferred a bra that was more user friendly and swift at getting redone). So if you are buying a nursing sports bra and work out a ton, get one of these and dont buy a cheaper nursing sports bra. If you don't work out a ton and are just looking for something comfy, this is not worth the expense. For me it was worth it. In fact I bought one of these and one wacoal and if I could do it again, I'd spend a little bit more money and just buy 2 of these. But cardio is a huge part of my life.

First of all, Cake really needs to make 30 bands. I am a 30GG and I had to size up to a 32G. I am already wearing it on the last of 6 sets of hooks after one time of wearing it. I also own the Cake Sorbet nursing bra, and I will say that this bra runs slightly bigger in the band than that one. The straps, while comfortable, are not fully adjustable, and since I am short, I am unable to shorten them as much as I would like. The racerback clip shortens them a bit mire but I don't want to have to wear racerbacks always. Also, the "flexiwire" design does offer enough support to separate the breasts, but is not strong enough to get the center gore to tack, at least on larger sizes.The biggest drawback to this bra, though, is how shallow the cups are. I need deeper cups. I assume the shallowness is meant to help compress the breasts for support while exercising, but even so, these are too shallow. The weight of my breasts then pushes the wires further down on my ribcage and makes empty space at the bottom of the cup. After wearing this bra all day, the spot on my ribcage that the wires were pressing on became very sore, and was also sore the next day. If I were to size up in the cup enough so that this didn't happen, the cups would them be too large to offer any support.Despite all this, the bra is a lot more comfortable than I expected. I would not consider it "high impact" in my size, but moderate impact, sure. It is very well constructed. I love the modesty panel, though it does make it a bit challenging to put on sometimes. And I think the bra itself it pretty cute. It is no doubt the best option we nursing moms have in this category. I like it enough that I'd buy another one, but only if it went on sale.

This material is very stiff, and the bra has multiple seams that are very rough and uncomfortable. This is similar to another Cake bra that I own. It did feel moderately supportive but not worth the discomfort. I will be returning for this reason.

Perfect fit! Worth EVERY PENNY! I am a VERY large breasted athletic person and I am 36, having my first child, so let's just say i need the added support. I had several bras from destination maternity and motherhood and other places, but they didn't last more than a month or 2. I have to get my typical bras at a specialty store because the Victoria's Secret just doesn't cut it. Once I had the baby, I planned to continue breast feeding, and went back to work (I teach Physical Education) The typical maternity bras did not do anything functional and i couldn't wear my non-maternity bras. I found this and after reading EVERY review, bought one... Instant love! i can run in this bra- whether i have pumped or not, i can walk fast, i can demonstrate activities and not have to put my lady parts back in after falling out of the other "nursing bras" i had. The padding is not very thick, but it is surprisingly absorbent. It is a thick material, soft and flannel like on the outside and soft and thick nylon like on the inside. i have forgotten nursing pads a few times and unless there is a major leak, it holds small leaks very well without reaching the outer layer or shirts. I do typically (before pregnancy) wear a 36DD or 36E in my specialty bras, so i got 36E in this one and it FITS GREAT. It was a little tight, but it stretches well and supports even better. When i pump or nurse, the strap that the cup fastens in to holds so true to shape (this was an issue with all my other bras). I love the underwires, they are slightly wide to allow for full support but don't dig in on the sides. I would recommend this bra to any active, large breasted, nursing mother. The snaps are very thick and hold very well-they never unsnap unless i am intentionally opening them. I love the racerback option in the back. I only wish they were made in nude or white or black, so i could wear them under my typical clothes or dress clothes. You can see straight through because of the beautiful blue stripe. I wear camis under everything so it is no issue with me, but for anyone else, i think the support and durability of this bra it is so worth it!

This was that I was looking for, it does fit a tad large but it has enough hooks that for me it doesn't matter at all

Fits a little tight but nice product.

This bra is amazing! It felt so good to finally have proper support and be able to exercise. I measured as a 38DD and it's a tiny bit snug around the band but I think a bigger size would be too big.

This is the only truly breastfeeding sports bra I have found anywhere. I use it several times a week. The colours are a bit dull and muted. I love the option to make it a racerback with a little in-built clip on the straps as most of my sports vests are racerback. I did find it a little bit soft in the cup so I do wear another supportive top. The design works but is not very attractive, I find the white cross panel shows in most of my sports necklines but as it is designed to look like a white vest this doesn't matter. It is a bit fiddly when you open up the breastfeeding clip as you have to make sure the breast is sitting in the middle of the cut-out white section and then the grey cup folds down.Either way I have not seen any other breastfeeding sports bra on the market and am very happy with this one.

Me and my clients @christinabohanefitness have loved this product. It gives good support also for running. 3 hooks fastening for extra support from EE size. Racer back conversion clip hides bra straps nicely. Last but not least the drop down cups make it easy to feed your baby, literally straight after training.
