I wear this for Crossfit training, running, weight lifting etc. I needed a bra that didn't cut/rub where my pectoral muscle intersects under my arm. At first it felt like this bra was going to hurt like all the others, but after a few times it has loosened up and is very comfortable, yet gives me the shape and support I want. The only thing I don't like is it bunches up at the top in the front and doesnt look good under a shirt.

Disappointing Fit
I am very small chested, but with a slightly broader chest. I wanted this bra so that I wouldn't look so much like a pre-teen :) Unfortunately the sizing was just too off. ...Read complete review
I am very small chested, but with a slightly broader chest. I wanted this bra so that I wouldn't look so much like a pre-teen :) Unfortunately the sizing was just too off. The small was way too tight around my ribcage but perfect in the cups and the medium was too loose all around.
I wish this bra worked out! I wish the sizing was re-scaled to reflect more body types!!

Comments about Moving Comfort Alexis:
The best sports bra in existence! It's comfortable (a lot of times I'll just wear it around instead of a regular bra) and as someone with a smaller chest size, I really appreciate the molded cups. A lot of workout shirts tend to flatten my chest, and I love being able to have an extra "boost" - makes me feel a lot more comfortable and sexy (I know, it's not what I should be thinking about in the middle of kickboxing, but it's really great to feel extra attractive and confident even while totally sweaty and exhausted). Plus, the padding is great to make sure there's no nipple show through, and the colors are very cute. Just cheers me up to wear it around. I've worn it for boxing, running (it doesn't chafe or rub anything the wrong way, even while running marathons), hiking, snow sports, just relaxing, and uniquely enough, MRI scans (since it has no metal underwire, it saves me from having to go braless in scans, which is something I do for work, so it's awesome). With this bra I never have to feel exposed or in any way insecure.
The only con is that it is pretty hard to get off...I kind of hard to squiggle and jump around a bit, but it's not much of a deterrent for me.
Also at some point, I had gained a lot of weight after being immobile from a bad accident for a long time, and unfortunately when I gain weight I don't gain it all over, so I got downgraded in the bra cup department....and this bra was a lifesaver. I ended up going from a M/L to an XL and I couldn't find any other bra that made me feel as comfortable and look as good. I ended up ordering one in four different colors.
I wish moving comfort would making a bathing suit based on this model!!! I've considered wearing it in the pool a number of times.
LOVE this bra!

Comments about Moving Comfort Alexis:
Have to dislocate shoulder to get on and off. I am a 36B, and the Medium is so tight it leaves marks on my ribs, but the Large is very gappy.

Comments about Moving Comfort Alexis:
I recently completed my first triathlon, and I wore this bra for the event. It worked extremely well - holding it's snug, comfortable fit in and out of the water. I didn't give it a second's thought throughout the competition--no tugging, pinching, chafing. On a more regular basis, I wear this bra for running, cycling, pilates, and yoga. It is very comfortable for all of these activities. The design is pretty, flattering, and youthful for smaller chested women who hate to be squished flat in a sports bra. It looks cute layered under a cami for yoga or pilates. I love the thin, adjustable straps. On the "con" side, the mesh fabric at the neckline sags/bunches just a little and, on me, the fit is a bit large under the armpits. I'm a 36B (an A+ or B- to be more precise), and wear the medium. Also, like many other reviewers have stated, this bra is difficult to remove. Overall, a great product, and the best sports bra I have tried so far.

Comments about Moving Comfort Alexis:
I love this bra! In fact, I really won't buy any other sports bras anymore and now own 5 of these bras. I am an A/B cup and a marathon runner, a cyclist, a swimmer and yogini. The fit and support are unrivaled in any other sports bra out there. I recently wore one under my wetsuit to do an Olympic distance triathlon and it held up beautifully even wet. My only critique is that I do like the older version better than the new version. I liked the slightly lower cut in front and the fixed straps. Also, more solid color options would be great (not a huge fan of the prints).

Comments about Moving Comfort Alexis:
I agree with all of the other reviews on this bra. First of all - it is almost perfect. It is the best bra that I have found so far. I ran cross country in college. I still run, I am a gym teacher, and I am a fitness instructor so I wear this bra for running, zumba, and everything in between. It is super supportive, extremely flattering, and still looks brand new after it has been worn and washed. Most sports bras only look cute under a tshirt but this one looks good with tight little tank tops or by itself. The padding gives my small chest some much needed help and it keeps people at the gym from being able to tell when I'm cold. The only problem is that the band is really tight and difficult to get off. Sometimes after a hard workout when I'm tired my husband has to help me take it off. I'd give it 4.5 stars. Moving Comfort definitely makes the best bras of any brand. Nobody else compares.
