This is the Sublime Handsfree Pumping and Nursing Bra by Kindred Bravely. Here’s the link to the Kindred Bravely website with 20% off for you: Kindred Bravely. This is the specific bra I'll be reviewing: Sublime Handsfree Pumping and Nursing Bra.
Key Features
- Price: $52
- Extras: Comes with a matching bra extender, adding up to 2 inches to the band size.
- Functionality: Designed for pumping and nursing, with a double-panel system—one layer clips down for pumping (exposing two flange holes), and a second layer clips down for nursing.
- Sizing Options: Available in "busty" and "super busty" for larger cup sizes.
- Padding: Removable padding for added versatility.
Pros
- Band Extender: The included band extender is a game changer! I needed it to get the perfect fit, so it's helpful that they include it.
- Comfortable & Supportive: This bra has great support and is incredibly comfortable for all-day wear, whether I’m nursing, pumping, or both.
Cons
- Flange Hole Design: I’m not a fan of the open flange hole style at all. I much prefer overlapping fabric panels for a better hold and more coverage. Plus, with the Kindred Bravely signature holes, when you remove your flange, your nipple can get uncomfortably stuck in the "bullseye," which isn’t ideal in terms of comfort.
- Removable Padding: The included cups weren’t for me—I took them out after giving them a try for a couple of days.
Concluding Thoughts
If you’re looking for a supportive, multi-functional bra with an included band extender, this is a great choice. While I wish the flange design were a bit different, it’s still a solid option.
