Description of Moving Comfort Women's Calli Bra
The new Calli combines superior support with beauty and comfort in our most technically advanced bra for C-E customers.The most technically advanced bra for C to E cup sizes, the Moving Comfort Calli Bra combines superior support with beauty and comfort. In the Calli, comfortable underwire and powerful bonded shell fabric lay softly against your body to separate, shape, and support the chest, eliminating the "tube" effect of so many sport bras. High-quality sport performance materials provide rapid moisture transfer in high-sweat areas of the bra for long use comfort. Wide front straps won't bite into the shoulders and provide stability. The back straps are adjustable for an optimum fit. Three plush-backed hook-and-eye rows on the band provide further adjustable and cushioned support, and the wide banded back will not bite into your sides.
Designed for high-impact sports, the Calli features combined encapsulation and compression support. The encapsulation bra cup construction surrounds the breast to give support and shaping, protecting the breast tissue from horizontal, vertical, and circular motion during sports. Compression bra construction redistributes breast tissue to evenly press against the chest wall limiting overall motion. The Calli is an exceptional bra for women who wear larger cup sizes and would like support, comfort, and a flattering fit in their sports bra.

Find Your Fit:
- Band: Should be slightly more snug than a lingerie bra. Make sure you can comfortably take a deep breath with the bra fastened on the middle hook. Be sure the band doesn't ride up in the back. If it does, the band may be too loose and/or the straps need to be adjusted.
- Cups: Adjust your breasts for a proper fit. They should be completely held within the cups without overflowing. Fabric should be smooth. Wrinkles or puckers indicate the cup is too big. Underwire should sit on your ribcage below the breast tissue and follow your natural shape.
- Straps: Should offer minimal stretch to reduce up-and-down breast movement. Wider straps will disperse the weight and feel more comfortable. Straps should not dig in or slide off your shoulders. Adjustable straps offer a more custom fit.
About Moving Comfort:
Two female runners founded Moving Comfort in 1977 before there were women's workout clothes. In the 30-plus years since the founding, the company hasn't strayed from its original purpose. Moving Comfort uses high-quality, performance fabrics that have the right amount of stretch, perfect quick-wicking moisture management, and a healthy amount of comfort--cut exactly for a woman's body.
Moving Comfort follows the following guidelines in constructing high-performance athletic wear for women:
Moving means moving: The how doesn't matter--running, walking, weight training, yoga, martial arts, skiing, snowshoeing, rock climbing, horseback riding, golf, tennis, basketball, volleyball, soccer, inline skating...Moving Comfort naturally understands and designs clothes for a woman's body, whatever that body was meant to do.
Quality comes first: Moving Comfort understands the kind of support and freedom needed in clothing, and how that clothing should feel against the skin. The company knows what keeps women warm and dry when it's cold and cool and dry when it's hot. Knowledge, expertise and high standards shape the fit, fabric and function of every garment Moving Comfort designs.
Fit affects everything: Keeping fit improves every aspect of a woman's life--reducing the incidence of heart disease, breast cancer, osteoporosis, depression, and drug and alcohol abuse. If a girl or woman is more comfortable when she's working out, she's more likely to keep at it. That's why Moving Comfort views its technical garments--and the great fit of each piece--as a means to encourage women to get fit and stay fit.
Apparel reviews of Moving Comfort Women's Calli Bra
Customer Review: Love this bra!
Rating: 5 Stars
I love this bra! I do a lot of long-distance walking at a pretty good pace and this bra is supportive and extremely comfortable. It's also great during the summer when it gets pretty hot - it's very breathable with no chafing anywhere. I'm now at the point that I own several of these bras and wear them to work in place of my minimizer bras.Customer Review: nice bra

This is the first sports bra I've had that running doesn't hurt. I don't like wearing it for extended periods before or after working out, but I didn't expect that I would. I usually wear a 36DD in regular bras, but got a 36D in this one. I have always found that sizing down a cup helps with running (hence the minor discomfort if I am not working out). I don't notice discomfort when I am working out.
I have 4 of these bras (2 black, 1 white and 1 mist.) I like this bra for running, volleyball and softball. For less bouncy activities (yoga, lifting), I usually wear a champion underwire bra that has a little more stretch to it for more comfort.
I just wish the straps in back didnt look so lingerie like. The strap with the adjustable part has a pattern on it that is very lingerie. Wearing it with a t back tank looks a little tacky (the black looks ok, but the white and blue look like your underwear is hanging out.) However, I can overlook this little bit for the great support.
Customer Review: Odd fit
Rating: 2 Stars
I'm always looking for a modern and well-designed sports bra that doesn't smash me down or push me "together". I"m a 34C, 130 lbs. This design seemed promising but unfortunately didn't work for me. The wire placement was too far forward on the side and was uncomfortable. The design seemed to push the breasts together despite having separate cups. The front was completely puckery, even though I seemed to fill out the inner cups fine. The placement of the front straps seemed uncomfortably close together as well, while the back band was hiked up. It was so odd on me I thought it could possibly be a defective item. A bra that fits me extremely well is the Wacoal sports bra, which unfortunately is twice the price of this one.Customer Review: design flaw

The problem with this bra is that the underwire ends, the ends that are between the breasts, are not encased in a binding. They stop around 4:30 and 7:30 o'clock, within the inner mesh lining, and although securely stitched in place, the ends and stitching together create irritation points. I have several types of sports bras and everyday bras, most made by Moving Comfort. This one is just unacceptable and I am sending it back. Other than that issue, the bra is attractive and well-made, with good fabrics. The fit is a little loose on the chest band for a 32D; I need to attach it on the middle or closest hooks, which means that it might not be snug enough over time if it stretches out.Customer Review: Great bra but flawed design

I have three MC cali sports bras and love the fit and comfort. However, after one or two washings the underwire pokes out and even with repeated mending continue to poke through. I keep giving them a try as hoping the manufacturer will correct.
