The 8 Best Wireless Bras That Are Equal Parts Supportive and Comfortable, Tested and Reviewed

Best Overall

Wacoal Comfort First Wire Free T-Shirt Bra

View On Amazon $52 View On Nordstrom $50 View On Wacoal-america.com

Japanese label Wacoal is well known for its high-quality undergarments, and we have to say, the brand lived up to its hype. While we know that finding wireless bras suitable for larger chests is no easy feat, Wacoal accepted the challenge, and they delivered. This baby carried our DD chest from New York to Abu Dhabi, a situation that is public facing but still in need of lounge-worthy comfort. We loved how it made us feel put together when running from gate to gate, but comfortable enough to drift into a gentle sleep in our seats. 

While it doesn’t reach the level of support as a wired bra from Wacoal’s (which we frequently wear as well), this wireless bra came in as a close second. Impressive, considering the lack of caging. The soft bands never dug, the shoulder straps were stretchy yet sturdy, and the cups had a silky and foamy feel to them that our chests simply adored. After tons of wear during travels and frequently washing them, they maintained their condition immaculately. 

This sentiment was shared on our smaller chests as well, who also happened to be traveling in them, although the full-coverage cups felt like a little more fabric than necessary. Still, thanks to its great stretch and comfort, it was tempting to continuously gravitate towards this over any other bra.

Best Budget

Simply Perfect by Warner's Super Soft Wirefree Bra

View On Amazon $22 View On Target $22 View On Macy's $20

Prices for bras in the last decade grew legs and ran up the hills. Seriously, who wants to pay over $100 for a garment that only sees the back of your shirt? If you’re thinking “Not I” then allow us to introduce you to this ridiculously comfortable (and cute) wireless bra from Target’s Simply Perfect by Warner’s collection. 

This bra held up the (fraternal) twins reasonably well, considering the lack of wires and structure. The thicker bridge between the cups helped in the support department and also kept everything flush against the chest. We often forgot it was even on, so it was easy to go from indoor to outdoor at any given time. That’s probably why it looked so good underneath a T-shirt (although we still recommend opting for a T-shirt bra if you really want that Brie Larson look). We did notice, however, that a tank top was no-good with this bra, because the straps were on the thicker side. 

After a good wash, we noticed some creasing in the cups. This went away after a day’s wear, so do not be too alarmed. (Make sure you’re washing your bras correctly, too.) Aside from that, it maintained its shape surprisingly well, for something so affordable.

Best Plus-Size

Soma Embraceable Full Coverage Bra

View On Soma.com

We know: You’re very skeptical about a wireless bra working on your bigger frame. What if we told you that our DD-chested tester loved this bra so much, she went and bought two more for herself and friends? Not convincing enough? Okay, another minute of your time, please.

On a particularly low-hanging set of breasts, this bra lifted them in a natural manner, making them look flattering under a shirt. Not only that, but where other bras cause some boobage to spill out the sides and tops, this bra packed everything in neatly, upping the support factor a few notches. Add in that they felt ridiculously comfortable — we’re talking lounging all day and running errands with ease — it earned its best plus-size wireless bra title. 

Soma offers one of the most inclusive size-ranges we’ve seen, giving you options up to 44H. This bra was engineered with fuller bodies in mind from the start, so it’s really no surprise it fits like a glove. We did notice, however, that the cups are a little thin, and underneath form fitting tops, the nipples can poke through when cold. Nothing that bothered us, but worth calling out.

Best for Large Breasts

Knix WingWoman Contour Bra

View On Knix

One of our biggest pet peeves with bigger busted bras is that they hardly ever look flattering, especially if they’re wireless. Not this Knix Contour Bra, though. Let us begin by saying: wow. Not only did this bra hold up our chests with impressive amounts of support, but they flattered the shape of our breasts proudly. Yes, expect some cleavage to come out of these shaping bras. We found our girls to look very plump and well-carried underneath a V-neck shirt. For this reason, it wasn’t our favorite for lounging around the house. It’s a little contradictory to popular wireless bras, but this was perfect for a night out on the town and upping that sexiness factor. We can’t believe we’re saying that about a wireless bra either. We would even go as far as to say it provided more support with less coverage than a traditional bra (yes you can quote us). While most wireless bras tend to press down and conceal bigger chests, this one almost created a push-up effect, with great side support and a plunging neckline. 

The surprisingly sturdy straps boosted the support. It does make it slightly less comfortable, but very useful for heavy breasts. The band is also on the thicker side, and has five hook columns for you to adjust around your body — something we found extra necessary considering how confusing the size guide was. Knix for some reason felt the need to throw out traditional bra sizing, and scales their sizes from 0 to 8++. We found that the conversion actually gave us an inaccurate size, typically offering something smaller than necessary, and we needed to exchange it for a different one.

Best for Small Breasts

Pepper Limitless Wirefree Scoop Bra

View On Amazon $50 View On Wearpepper.com

It’s less challenging to find a wireless bra for the itty bitty titty committee. Still, we wanted to make sure we could find a bra that didn’t gape, or make us look flatter than we already are. We turned to Pepper, as small chests are kind of their thing. 

This bra has a little more support than the typical wireless and unpadded bras we’re used to. That’s because the cups are slightly thicker and the tiny mesh window in the bridge helps give it some extra coverage and breathability. We also noticed that the padding was removable. We could easily get away with just the double-lining on the cups without the pads, but simply liked the additional cushioning from them.

We traveled with it throughout Asia for two weeks and sometimes found it more supportive and comfortable for hikes (and sprinting for buses) than a sports bra. It remained comfortable and stretchy through it all, but we were a little disappointed to find some pilling beginning to appear around the straps and clasps after the two week testing period.

Chantelle Full Bust Wirefree Bra

When you’re wearing a bra you want to be able to throw it on and not think about it again until it’s lights out. Well, friends, this one will let you do that. Chantelle bras have this magical capability of looking seemingly standard, but then blowing us away once on, thanks to their superior comfort and fit. We would know, as our team tried on over ten of their T-shirt bras in the past. Their wireless bra was no exception.   

After years of going to professional bra fittings, we’ve learned what makes a good-fitting bra, and this one fits everything to a T: great coverage, soft fabrics, and a lining that’s flat against the chest. No bulging or hanging out could be found here. With the amount of support it gave, it rivaled its wired counterparts. 

The coverage is definitely full, which added to its comfort. It felt like our boobs were hanging out in the hammock and chilling there all day. Naturally, on smaller chests this could be a little too much fabric. But for our bigger girls that need a little more caressing, we couldn’t get enough of the ridiculously smooth material.

Most Supportive

Honeylove CrossOver Bra

Looks like you don’t have to play eenie meenie miney mo when choosing between support, comfort, and cuteness with this wireless bra. The brand, infamous for its sexy shapewear, knows how to lift, define, and prop up the chest, in a cozy manner. 

We found that the CrossOver Bra provided about a similar amount of coverage as a traditional bra, but with much more support than most underwire bras. The cups are formed with crisscrossing bandaging, which we found to be lifting and kept everything in its rightful place. We particularly appreciated the thicker bands on the sides for our bigger chests — this was a significant help in feeling secure. It was also made of really soft fabrics, so it never irritated the skin in any way. All of these qualities make it an especially good bra for older women.

The only major con was the sizing. We don’t know why some brands ditch the traditional cup measurements and opt for an XS-3XL scale. We have specific band widths that don’t necessarily correlate with the cup size, so where the cup size might feel too big, the band size feels too snug. If you have a standard sizing that’s more or less one-to-one between cup and width, we don’t see there being a big issue.
