The bra looks at first glace like an earlier Bali that fit well. I tried it on for about 30 seconds and realized it is not at all like the older style. The side and back are an awful squishy elastic instead of the preferable firm elastic. I noticed immediately that the too-soft elastic was rolling up. I am not overweight and the bra is if anything a little large, but it began to roll up at the bottom in just a short try-on. I am returning both bras. Hanes no longer carries the better Bali bra style.

The bra is one of the most comfortable bras I have worn but the choice of material is awful. This material picks, has little fuzz balls created by the jersey material tops worn with bras. This needs a different type of material for the outer shell of bra. I wash in bra boats on the gentle cycle and this bra looks horrible and I bought it two months ago.

I have worn this bra for the last 10 years. I could never find a bra that the straps would stay up. I was shown this one at an outlet that sold Bali. I was skeptical about front closure but I love it. Now I don't wear anything else. Easy care and last forever.

42/B Great fit with a nice firm hold. Would be the perfect bra for me if the straps were a wee bit wider with slide adjustments in the back. The front hook could be just a little more substantial, but it works. I agree with the reviews that say the front hook tends to twist/slip up when more physically active. No complaints though, bought 2 then immediately bought 3 more.

Just received my order - upon removing the bra from the packaging I saw that it already had a snag - had read about this problem in other reviews but decided to order the bra anyway because front close bras with no racerback are hard to find. I haven't worn the bra yet, only tried it on and it seems comfortable and fits well. So I'm keeping it because returning it isn't worth the hassle...and anyway, it will probably end up with more snags based on the other reviews.

I am such a fan of this bra!! The only style I own because it took me so long to find a bra... Stays on my shoulders, comfortable underwire and back, so soft and fit perfect!! Have been wearing for a few years, have one in every color. But now...WHAT happened to 34?!?!? PLEASE PLEAS PLEASE bring back my size!!!!

Like this very much. I have owned it for less than a month. Because of all it's good qualities, I have ordered another. The only caution is that this bra must be hand laundered. My first one accidently washed in the washer, but line dried. The back and side fabric broke down a fair amount.

This is the most comfortable bra I've ever owned. The minute I put it on it was like I wasn't bound up in a bra. No pinching, no straps binding down on my shoulders, no double breast look. pure comfort with excellent support. I did order my size per a professional fitting and found the band size just slightly large, so I'll be ordering another in a smaller band size

Very nice bra, I bought this bra at a store near me, could not find my size, normally I would take a 38C, but they didn't have it, so I tried on a 38D and it fit perfectly, I was very surpised, don't know if it was the hook in the front? But I love it. So for me I went a cup size up. Then bought another one online.

I love this bra. I like that the 42 comes in a B cup. My only complaint, besides the pilling, is the size of the cup and every company does this. I'm a large woman with small breasts. I've tried a 40B, but it's a little tight around. But when I get a 42B, the cup is bigger. I don't understand why bra makers think when you're bigger around, your breast is bigger. Whether I'm a 40 or 42, my breast is still the same size! So I just go with the 42B for comfort. I've been buying this bra for years and it's the best front close I've found, and I've tried many!
