Reversible Bra?

fthunt — Mon, 27 Apr 2020 15:08:40 GMT

Eeewww Makes me think of turning 'something' else inside out for another week's wear....I've heard of male college guys doing that ....to prevent doing laundry.

No Thanks

The age old backpacker's query, socks or underwear.

I'm not into a bra that you have to "crawl" into, who needs that? But, I think the "theory"behind it being reversible is you can change the color to go with what top you are wearing. Hence, black for dark tops, etc. But again, no fan of a bra without hook & eye opening. Life's difficult enough.

I purchased several of these last year. They are the most comfortable bra I have ever purchased. I tossed all my other ones out.

I use the inserts for when I am at work and I take them out for at-home wear. Love them! Because they are Spanx, they really stay strong (hold well) after many, many washings.

If you wear the same bra each day, or every other day, or less frequently, what is the problem with reversing it depending upon the color you want? I trade off with 2-3 during the week, sometimes turning they inside out. All depends upon what I am wearing with my other clothes.

Has nothing to do with not laundering them. Being reversible has absolutely nothing to do with when you wash them. It just gives you the option of having more colors available.

@World Traveler Understand...........re: colors....not laundry. College boys was the first thing that came to mind.

That's a hygiene issue and has nothing to do with the bra.

The bra is reversible so there's a dark and light option so you won't be stuck with a black bra and a white shirt.

I have Spanx bra's that are just like these. I dont wear until dirty then reverse. I have 3 of them and I have 6 color options to wear.

These are the best bra's I have ever had.

Dont knock it until you have tried it.

All I will wear is Rhonda Shear Ahh Bra. I have them in all colors. I hate bras. I don't put one on unless I leave the house. They are the most uncomfortable thing I have ever wore in my whole life. LOL!!! Even though the Ahh bra is more comfy then a hook closure I'm still not wearing one if I don't have to. More comfy being free.

I wear "loose" bras at home because I feel too floppy going bra-less! 😜😜. I wear underwires if I am going out.

@World Traveler ....is there any support in the bras? I am a 32G....I have worn underwire bras since as long as I can remember. I have some PJ and lounge wear that I must wear a bra when wearing around the house. The TSV might fit what I need but still need support.

I'm trying the Spanx bras. In the house I wear soft, light support bras (Soma). When I go out, I need more of a modesty bra, I hope these are good for going out- we will see!

I don't care what it was, made me laugh!!!

@Mom2Dogs Yes, there is support in the bras. There is no underwire, but even if you pull the inserts out, there is support for me. I definitely need support in my bras.

The only reason I use the inserts when I am working is because it gives a nice lift to the bustline, and that makes for a better look when I wear tops that are sheer.

When I don't have the inserts in, there is still ample support but not quite as much uplift.

And the material is thick enough so there are no privacy issues.
