GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO GENIE TYPE BRAS

You ladies may already be aware of these bras, but I happened upon Bali Comfort Revolution bras and I just received them and I have never worn anything os comfortable. I like the underwire because I need the support but they have them in the wire free and the straps are adjustable. They also carry the more traditional comfort bras but I can't speak to them.

I was looking for a comfort stretch bra with underwire where youn could adjust the strands. They are $19.99 online at OneHanesPlace. They do charge $8.99 for shipping. You could probably find them in a brick and mortar store but I hate going to malls or big department stores. They are overwhelming to me and I can do better on line and the shipping charges to me are more convenient than finding parking places in Malls and wasting my time and gas.

Thank you for the headsup. I am in desperate need of a good bra. I, too, like underwires, although my surgeon suggested not wearing them when I recovered from br**st cancer.

I won't wear anything else but a Bali bra. I turned my sisters on to them. Bali is my choice after years of comfortable bra searching. Balis are so comfortable. They're just the best.

I bought one of these Bali bras yesterday at Kohls in the underwire version - $23.99, less coupon and other rewards. I love it. They have some very pretty colors, too!

Re: GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO GENIE TYPE BRAS

I used to wear nothing but Bali bras for many, many years, with the underwire. But I just can't wear anything like that anymore, so I have changed to Genies. If Bali is making their bras more comfortable now, I would switch again. I'm going to try to find this online, but if it has skinny straps and a non-supportive back, I'm not going to buy it. However, I'm curious.


ETA: Nope, just looked at it . . . not going back to bras that have skinny straps with hooks in the back.

Avon also has Bali Comfort Revolution Bras in their current catalogs. Actually, they have a nice selection of Bali bras in a wide range of sizes. You can shop online, also.

If you're trying to find a specific style, Onehanesplace is a good source ..... but don't forget e bay! Last bra I bought there was highly discounted with free shipping and it was out of my state, so NO sales tax! It was a steal! {#emotions_dlg.laugh}
