Neiwai Review: The Barely Zero Classic Wireless Bra 2.0

 

Here I am with another bra review because honestly I only buy two a year and wear them out by the end of they year. And instead of re-purchasing the same thing I like to see what else is out there in the market. I first heard of Neiwai amongst friends two years ago when one friend got it as a White Elephant gift and all my friends kept stealing it from each other. Huh, is it that good? I had just gotten my Pepper bras I decided to hold off on trying it out. Fast forward a little over a year and I was targeted on Insta during Black Friday and I was curious to see if it was as good as my friends’ said. So was it?

That would be a yes.

First off, unfortunately, there is only one sizing for this bra so it isn’t size inclusive. I think it will probably fit those from a size A to C cup max, with a band size of around 32-40. This is quite a stretchy bra so it will fit a lot of women though definitely not all. But for those that fall within their OS sizing, it’s a wonderfully comfortable bra because of its stretchiness (for reference I’m a 38A in Pepper bras).

The bra is made of nylon and spandex, and it comes with removable cups. It’s like a sports bra in that you have to put it on over your head. TBH that’s the most annoying part. But once on, I never have any issues with the bra. No underwire digging in and no shoulder straps falling (even towards the end, the straps of my Pepper bra would fall down—they all do). That bad across isn’t too tight and doesn’t leave any marks. And best of all the bra is seamless so you can’t see it under any shirt (I got the color treacly almond— and for those like me who wondered what that meant, it means syrupy almond lol). Overall it feels great on and the clothes look great.

But also let’s be honest, this isn’t a cute bra. This one was definitely not made for the male gaze lol. But honestly it’s one of the most comfortable bras out there and for an old married dame like myself, that’s the most important thing.

Anyway these bras are so comfy that my friend has six of them! I myself just have one, though I’m looking to add a second for sure. I keep trying to use my Pepper bras but when given a choice, I always reach for the Neiwai one. If you’re interested in trying out this bra, I would greatly appreciate anyone using my referral link here ($10 off your $50 purchase), so that I can also get $10 off a future purchase. Thanks!
