When I was first approached to review the PocketBra I literally said “huh, a bra with pockets?”. I had never heard of such a thing. Like most young women looking to forgo carrying a purse I simply stuffed money, cards, makeup and my phone into the cups of my bra during a night on the town. The idea of finding a bra with actual pockets meant to store my belongings strongly intrigued me!

About the PocketBra

The innovative bra design literally has two pocket inserts, one in the cup and another in the side banding, allowing you to inconspicuously carry small objects!  The stylish product, created by Sherri Winks, was created to alleviate the burden of carrying handbags.

Pros of the PocketBra

1. Support

The underwire provides a great deal of support and it is definitely on par with other successful bra companies. The fabric is strong and soft without being uncomfortable or imposing. The demi bra has very light padding making it comfortable enough to wear for long periods without feeling painful.

2. True to Size

I ordered the Pocket Bra in my actual size and a cup size smaller to properly assess the fit. I was very happy with the fit of the cup size. The bra is very true to size and didn’t leave excess space between my cleavage and the fabric.

3. Presentation

The bra itself is fashionable and trendy. I love the lacy side bands and the small lace insert in the front of the bra. The black lace bra is very sultry while the pink version is pretty and feminine.

4. Convenience

It was actually fun to be able to ditch my purse and carry all of my little necessities hidden away instead of in an oversized bag or bothersome clutch. I can only imagine how handy this would be during long pageant events or titleholder appearances!

Cons of PocketBra

1. Color and Size Range

Unfortunately, the Pocket Bra currently only comes in midnight black and cherry blossom pink. Also, the bra only comes in sizes 32B to 38D which is disappointing for women who fall outside of this range. I think the product would be much more marketable if it came in a wide variety of colors especially nude. Additionally, a broader size range would make this a more sought after product.

Conclusion

The PocketBra is definitely worth a try! The bra is well made and fits comfortably and you won’t feel any discomfort wearing it. Having a cheeky hidden pocket makes carrying objects discreetly extremely convenient!
