I tried a wire-free bra that has thousands of 5-star reviews on Amazon, and now I want to buy it in every color
Insider
  • The Hanes Comfort Evolution Bra topped Amazon's everyday bra list in May.
  • The wire-free bra is available in 13 different colors, and ranges from size small to 3X.
  • I wore the bra around the house and out on an 8-mile bike ride, and it was so comfortable that I kept forgetting I even had it on.
  • If you're in the market for an inexpensive bra that is going to last, I highly suggest taking a look at the Hanes Comfort Evolution Bra.

The first thing I noticed when I saw the Hanes Comfort Evolution Bra on Amazon was how many colors you could choose from.

It was a No. 1 best-seller on Amazon in the everyday bra category.      Celia Fernandez/Insider

The Hanes Comfort Evolution Bra was available in 13 different colors at the time of writing, and shoppers also have the option to buy some of the most popular ones in a bundle. While they have neutral colors for sale, like white, black, and nude, they also offer more fun options, including cheetah-print, coral, and red.

After seeing it was available in so many different colors, I looked at the size guide and figured out that I was going to order a large.

The Hanes guide shows how the US, UK, and EU cup sizes translate to its own size offerings, making it easy to follow. As a 38G, I knew that my best bet would be to go with a large size, as the XL was probably going to be too big.

I originally wanted to get the bra in black, but that was unavailable in a large, so I settled for the navy option.

I usually stick to buying bras in neutral colors like black, white, and nude, but the black was unavailable in my size. I figured the blue bra would be the most similar since it's still a darker color.

I ended up buying the navy bra for $13.95, and eagerly waited for it to arrive.

The bra arrived the next day packaged in a plastic bag, along with other items I had ordered from Amazon.

When I ordered the bra, I had also ordered a pair of leggings, so they both arrived in the same box. As someone who loves it when brands minimize their packaging, I was happy to see that Amazon shipped everything in one box, despite the fact that I ordered my other item a few hours later.

My first impression of the bra was how soft it was to the touch.

I'm not alone in being amazed at how soft the bra is to the touch. One reviewer on Amazon wrote: "I use this as my sleep bra and it's wonderful! So soft and comfortable — moves with your body."

The bra has no wires and offers fuller coverage. It was also designed with wide comfort straps and a wide comfort band, so it won't move once you have it on.

The bra's thicker band adds to its comfort.

The band was also thicker than other bras, meaning it would provide more coverage.      Celia Fernandez/Insider

I was excited to see that the band of the bra was also wider because it meant I wasn't going to have any of my rolls spilling over the top, which can happen when the band is too thin.

When I first tried on the bra, I immediately knew it was going to become a favorite of mine to wear around the house and run errands in.

The bra was so comfortable that I barely felt like I had anything on.      Celia Fernandez/Insider

To be honest, I was a bit nervous when I opened the bra because I tend to stay away from wire-free options. As someone with a bigger bust, I find that they normally don't provide any support.

This bra completely changed my mind. As soon as I put it on, I felt so snug and like I just wanted to lounge around the house in nothing but the bra. It felt so soft against my skin and when I put a white T-shirt over it, you couldn't even tell that I was wearing a blue bra underneath.

I used the third hook on the bra and it still felt great, and I loved that the wider straps provided additional support and coverage.

Before I decided to invest in bras that actually fit my body type and bust, I was always dealing with spillage either in the back or underneath my arms. Since this bra was purposely designed with wider straps and a wider band, I don't have to worry about anything. It holds everything comfortably and doesn't feel too tight or constricting.

After wearing the bra around my apartment to clean, I put it to the test by wearing it on a long bike ride.

The bra dried really fast after I accumulated a whole lot of boob sweat on my bike ride,      Celia Fernandez/Insider

When I'm cleaning, I like to be as comfortable as possible, so this bra is perfect for that. In fact, it's so comfortable that I kept forgetting I even had it on.

I recently picked up biking again and I didn't even realize I was still wearing the bra when I left for a ride. It's not until I would hit a bump that I'd realize, as it's not as supportive as a sports bra would be. However, it would still be great for more relaxed activities.

I'm still not comfortable enough to wear a bra like this to work or out to dinner with friends, but it has officially made it into my daily rotation at home. I got it about two weeks ago and have already worn it three different times to walk my dog, hang out around the house, and sleep.

If you're in the market for an inexpensive bra that is going to last, I highly suggest taking a look at the Hanes Comfort Evolution Bra because, in my opinion, it was worth every penny.
