Review on Champion Womens Absolute Sports SmoothTec by Daniel Ogbebor

Be careful if you are allergic to latex

I bought this bra because of the positive review on Wirecutter. When I first wore it it felt very tight (I'm 5'2117, B cup). I walked for about an hour, took off my bra and changed. That night I had an itch on my back that I thought might have been a mosquito bite. The next day I put the exercise bike back on and worked out on the elliptical trainer. I was in the 45th minute and I was sweating a lot. When I got home to change, I had an area-wide rash that was covered with a large rubber band (about 2.5 inches wide). It really burned and itched. The strap is closed so the rubber didn't touch my skin but I think it leaked from sweat. I put hydrocortisone cream on and it went away in a few days but I will not wear this bra again.

Pros
  • Light non-wired compression bra
Cons
  • Something else
