The people suggesting brooks Juno probably didn't read the part where you said you don't want to wriggle over the head.

Yes it closes in back, but you also have to perform some acrobatics to get it on and off. At least I did.

I love you...

agree -- Brooks Juno.

i bought the SheFit one and immediately returned it. so bulky. i couldn't wear a shirt over it.

I like the Brooks ones but they go over your head. Others I've used is glamorise (annoying name, good bras). And while pricey, I now use shefit and love them.

OP you asked about running with an underwire and chafing. I've worn underwire for years for running and HIIT and have not had a problem with chafing. I won't say never, but it has been very infrequent.

I like the Juno - very adjustable

I like the Lululemon Energy Bra longline. I run 30 miles a week and they are supportive and can be worn without a shirt. I like them so much I got a few Lululemon and then some dupes on Amazon from CRZ Yoga.

When I ran a lot, I swore by Moving Comfort to lock everything down. They were pricy but worth it for running, I can go cheaper for lower impact stuff (34d). It looks like now moving comfort is owned by Brooks, so I’d try them!
