Fab sports bra
November 06, 2011
I love merino wool products, and this is the first wool bra I've tried. The middleweight fabric is great for a sports bra--no show through and lots of support. I usually wear a small in sports bras (5'3", 125 pounds with ample shoulders, 34C, and a narrow waist), but I ordered the medium and it's perfect. The shoulders are cut out nicely so there's no chafing. The band underneath is firm, but keeps the bra in place comfortably. I didn't have any problems getting into/out of this bra, unlike other reviewers. I've been wearing this bra for all sorts of mountain and road biking, and just in general too. I will be ordering another one. My only minor issue was all the big labels sewn inside (they picked), but I just carefully removed all remnants of them.
Pros: Build quality, always smells greatPart of the workout is getting into it

As a previous reviewer pointed out, this bra has an odd fit. I wear a 34B and find the band on the small is a bit tight, but it gives good support for running. It can be hard to get in and out of, but is worth the effort. I was concerned that it would chafe because the armholes seem to be cut for a narrower chest, but after a 4-mile race in 80+ temps, I can say that chafing is not a problem. No itch, no stink, dries quickly, and quickly wicks moisture to the outside so it can evaporate. Machine washes in cold water without shrinkage (I don't put it in the dryer). I'm happy with it and will order another.
Pros: Build quality, PerformanceGood serviceable bra

Love to run in wool, all year round. Great in cool weather, wore it today in 75 degree weather: nice. Snug getting on, snug getting off. Recommend this for a smaller frame. I am 5'4", 120 lbs., and had trouble with it. Very good looking, fit to be worn by itself. Looking forward to having it for a long time. Excited to have it. Love the black.

great all-season wool running bra
August 14, 2012
This is a wool running bra that is terrific for year-round use. Comfortable - non-itchy and non-chafing, supportive, and great temperature regulation. The wool breathes well, wicks moisture away from the body, and is not too hot for summertime use while also keeping me from becoming cold after sweating - also, never smelly or clammy like synthetic fabrics can be. Construction is excellent quality. Only the chest band is a little snug and requires effort and care when putting on or taking off.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, PerformanceWool bras are hard to find!

Good fit, comfortable and supportive. Dries quickly; You can hang it in the tent and it will be dry in the morning. Once you do backcountry trips in a wool bra, you won't go back!

Fits very small
July 31, 2011
I have yet to test it but it fits very small. I normally wear an XS in the icebreaker line and the S was still too tight for comfort around the band. Reordered a M and although other reviewers say it was then a little too large, it fit me perfectly. The construction and fabric is similar to the other icebreaker clothing quality so I'm looking forward to a non sticking bra!
Pros: Build quality, PerformanceWanted to love it

I like the cut of this top. The armholes aren't too tight, the neckline is not too low or too high. The fabric is typical Icebreaker perfection. But the elastic band was too loose to keep the bra in place. I purchased a medium because I don't like to be squashed, but this top rode up if I shrugged my shoulders. It might work great for someone with a bigger ribcage than mine.

I'm 5'2" 110, 32D. I usually buy XS Icebreaker tops but after reading all the reviews went with the S and it fits perfectly. I use this for running & the support is great.
Good quality/ odd fit
June 12, 2011
Icebreaker has become one of my favorites so I thought I would try this bra. The merino fabric is great - breathable and does not smell. Unfortunately, the sizing seems off. For 34b, the medium was too loose to provide support but the small seems too tight. It is hard to get over the shoulders. Once on, the performance is good.
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Cons: Bad designAlready own the Icebreaker Rush Bra? Tell us your thoughts.
impeccable Icebreaker quality - only a fit issue
August 26, 2011
I'm a small in all the Icebreaker t-shorts and long-sleeve shirts so i bought the bra in S as well. The quality of the bra is great - awesome stitching - but i was squished - so this had to go back. Medium works much better - I'm a 32C in regular bra. Hope this helps whoever is trying to figure out sizes.
Pros: Great design, Build quality, Cons: CostGreat bra, a little tight around chest

I really like the construction of this bra. It is super comfortable on and supportive, but the chest band is not stretchy enough which makes it hard to get on. I can hear some of the threads break when I put it on sometimes, but once it is on it fits perfect and is very comfortable. I am a solid medium with all other brands.
Pros: Great design, Cons: needs more stretchWrite a review for the Icebreaker Rush Bra here.
