I have been wearing the same brand of bra since college, and lately I haven’t been as happy with the fit and comfort as I used to be. Ads for Third Love have been popping up everywhere! I have heard a lot of positive feedback. I finally decided to order a few for myself and share my findings in this Third Love Bra review. This isn’t a sponsored post; I paid for all of these products simply because I really do want to find something better than what I’ve been wearing! I figured that many of you may also be looking and could benefit from this Third Love bra review.
Third Love allows you to try before you buy. You are always allowed to return unworn merchandise with tags attached, but if you want to try their 24/7 Classic T-Shirt Bra and wear if before you decide, you can do so for up to 30 days! I think this is a brilliant marketing strategy. Let’s face it, many bras feel comfortable when you put them on for five minutes in the fitting room. Wearing it all day, day after day, is a different story!
When you first go to the website, they ask you to fill out their fit survey. This allows you to give feedback on what you are currently wearing and what’s not working for you. Based on what you input, they will suggest both a size and a style (or several styles) for you to try. My size changed after having babies, and I’ve felt like I’ve been between cup sizes since then. Sure enough, they recommended the C 1/2 for me. It is perfect! I can’t stress how well it fits without showing pictures that I prefer not to share in this forum. Ha. The cup is lined, but there is absolutely no gap between the edge of the cup and my body, a common problem when I was sizing up to a D. And because I don’t have to size down to a C, there are no unattractive bulges. Winning! Based on the sizing options alone, I will definitely come back to Third Love! The straps also don’t slip, another thing I had complained about with my other bras.
I loved the 24/7 Classic T-Shirt Bra so much that I decided to order both of their racerback bras as well. Racerback bras are a necessary evil in my opinion. They are more comfortable than strapless bras, and a necessity for many sleeveless shirts. However, I simply cannot find one that I love. First up was the 24/7 Classic Racerback Bra. I did not love the band on this one, and suspect that it wouldn’t have been comfortable for all day wear. The bigger issue for me was how high the straps are in the back. As you can see, the dress I’m wearing this with doesn’t even have a particularly low back, but you can see the straps at the top. Bummer! This dress, by the way, is between $10 and $20 at Old Navy depending on the pattern. Super comfy and great price!
The other racerback style I ordered was the Front Closure Lace Racerback. I really wanted to love this one! It’s much more comfortable than the other style and really pretty! Unfortunately, though, the cups went too close to my armpit and you can the bra from the front! So disappointing. The straps in the back were much better situated than the other one (as shown in the middle photo in the post), but being able to see the bra from the front is a deal breaker for me. I would have kept it otherwise, and I would recommend trying it for yourself as it may fit you differently. In fact, I plan to call with my feedback and see if they have any suggestions on how to fix this issue, such as perhaps changing sizes.

Great post and feedback! I tried my first Third Love Bra about 6 months ago and REALLY like it. It’s on my list to buy more in various colors. I’m using the 24/7 full coverage style, which is more “dainty” than the name implies, which is a good thing. I also will opt not to share any photos😜
So helpful to know this! I missed the full coverage racerback style when I was shopping and I think I need to try it to see if it works better than the other two.
I’ve been wanting to try Third Love for a while. I hate bra shopping because it is so confusing and I never know what to get. I might have to try now!
Bra shopping is literally the worst, isn’t it? Honestly that’s why I’ve been wearing the same thing for so long – it seemed easier than starting over, you know? I hope you find something you love!!
