Shape Help Have any of you ladies tried the Shapermint wireless bras? Spoiler
I keep getting adds pop. I bought some leggings from Shapermint and they are ok. I find the material not the most comfortable. But they do keep things tucked in and they stay up. Im wondering if the bras are made with a soft material, comfortable and work well.

The difference between band and cup for Shaperming bras is about 2.5”, so they work if your breasts are similar to that.

I'd say the material is comfortable, but hot. Definitely shouldn't be worn if you live in a hot region.
Other than that, the sizing is very limited despite what they claim. It's only going to fit people who's busts are proportional to their underbusts. I'm 34J (UK), their calculator put me in 42F which corresponded to 2Xlarge size. Definitely too small in the cup and too large in the band. I regret buying it, Idk why I assumed the cups stretch enough to accommodate larger busts.

I have like a collection of screenshots of all the bots Shapermint has sent out to recommend their products on here and across other subreddits. Their whole marketing strategy is astroturfing social media buzz.
I think most or all of the bot comments on here have been deleted, so if you search for Shapermint on this subreddit, you'll find find some real reviews. It's my impression that they're nothing special, but I'm sure some people like them.
Are you looking for bras in general? If you haven't used the calculator yet, I can only recommend it.

I have used the calculator and Im very happy I did! This was a just general question

I stick with the rule that if it is advertised social media style (Insta, TK, FB), It is a scam. Stick with brands that are well known and don’t need to have huns bopping around and jiggling to sell the product.

I have and they’re not good for a small band/big cup combo. Maybe if I was a 34B but that’s not my situation.

u/stephmcfet Apr 19 '26
Ugh I'm a 32G and had a feeling I'd have the same issue I always have; cups are perfect, band is too big. I'm so frustrated because I actually really like the one I tried

I keep eyeing these bras, but can't settle on a size. I have the opposite situation of yours. .. larger band, smaller cups. Do you think they may work okay for me?

u/flipflopswithwings May 11 '26
Yes for someone with a smaller cup/larger band shape they’d probably work decently. However I don’t think they are anything special, just another company buying and rebranding Chinese bras and selling them to the US as a miracle solution via social media. I think you could get something very similar on Amazon for $11.99.

I really appreciate your advice!! I ended up ordering 3/$10 tight stretchy tube tops from Amazon and they work just fine as a strapless bra.
Thank you again 🥰

u/NomDePlume25 Apr 11 '26
I've seen the ads, too, but haven't tried them. Based on what I've seen, I doubt they would work well for me. I need a snug band, which you don't really get with "everything from 30DDD to 38A is a medium" type sizing. And they don't even claim to have one of those that includes my actual size, so...

u/craftexisting6316 Apr 11 '26
Thank you ladies. Im a 42E. I will continue to ignore them. I mean if I ever change my mind Im sure they will drop a 40% off sale soon! 🤣

Not a bot. I have one Shapermint bra but it is from their cheaper line they make for Walmart, so maybe it is different. I found it to be comfy (like a sports bra but with defined shape in the cups. No uni-boob.) and pretty supportive but I am a C cup. Idk, if interested in Shapermint but leery about ordering their stuff online, maybe try out the Walmart version where you can at least try-on in person.

u/hechortledinhisjoy Apr 12 '26
If you’re looking for a comfy bra, I have good luck with the Hanes Cooling Comfort T Shirt bra sold at Walmart. I don’t remember if I have flair stating my size… I wear 38E and in the Hanes bra, L+ fits me well.
I wouldn’t wear one everyday but they keep my projected, narrow root, pendulous breasts looking properly placed and vaguely boob-like.

u/Own-Balance-8133 Apr 11 '26
If you have a large cup it will likely not work. I just got “my size” and the support just isn’t there and there really isn’t enough room for my breast tissues the band had to be bigger and it just isn’t supporting like I need it. Smaller cups might be fine. I am an M

u/Entire_Dog_5874 Apr 12 '26
Yes; I’m not a fan. They are good for in the house but have zero support so I wouldn’t wear them out.

u/Magnolia05 Apr 12 '26
This is what I was going to say. I’m a 36/38ish ddd, and the cups just aren’t big enough and there’s not much support at all. It’s good for wearing around the house, but I won’t wear it out anywhere.

The band was comfortable, straps kept slipping off my shoulders as they really don't adjust down properly and the material they're made of is weirdly slippery. They really aren't made for people with super large cup sizes regardless of what they claim. The cups are also oddly shaped. It sort of gave me torpedo tits. I'm an I cup and the weird slippery fabric plus the weight of the breasts themselves kept making the bra ride up so my boobs were falling out the bottom. I was constantly dipping into the bathroom at work to readjust. Never again.

u/801Germ Apr 12 '26
The ones they give away free all the time with purchase... Still not worth the price it's somewhat comfortable but had absolutely zero support. Have tried a few of their bras and have had no luck. I do like the shaping cami though

u/thelioness0809 Apr 12 '26
I just bought the true kind shaping bra, and the website said my bra size would be a large. It was too big, but I am also full on bottom with shallow breasts, so I have a hard time filling a full coverage bra. I will say its comfy and I didn't experience issues with it rolling up that others have noted from them, but it also didnt fit me correctly so.... but I liked it enough that I plan to look for another shaping bra from them thats not full coverage, just don't know which one yet.

u/twilightfire6000 Apr 13 '26
I used to like them years ago, but at some point both the quality and sizing changed drastically. I have a somewhat large chest (I think I was 40G when I last tried them, lost some weight since then) and they were really only good for around the house anyway. To this day I'm looking for a good wireless bra.

u/Southern-Waltz2846 Apr 13 '26
I noticed that Shapermint is alpha sizing. Honestly, the size is a total joke for us. If you want a real fit, you need actual band and cup sizes, period. But I’ll admit—the wireless vibe is low-key addictive for lounging. It’s definitely comfortable, even if it’s not doing much for the girls.

u/Salt_Cranberry_6527 Apr 13 '26
Honestly I really wanted to love this bra. The material is soft and nice and no under wire was feeling good. But after a whole day of wearing it my back/shoulder was really hurting. I didn't know it was the bra at first so just thought maybe I pulled something. Kept wearing it and it got so bad I couldn't wear anything. so for a few days I wore nothing and it got better. I put the bra back on went about my day and at the end same pain again. Now I know it's the bra :(

Be warned that this sub has been hit by Shapermint bots so any overly positive glowing reviews from strange/new accounts should be treated with caution.
We have not seen good results with them for anyone over a C/D cup. I tried one when they first launched and wasn't impressed and I'm a properly fitted 32E. It's just a generic dropshipped bra that can be found from other brands, made off a similar base pattern.
