Why We Like The Garmin HRM-Fit
With the Garmin HRM-Fit, we no longer have to deal with incorrect readings or uncomfortable digging when wearing a heart rate monitor over or under our sports bra. The slim, clip-on design works with our medium- and high-impact sports bras to deliver accurate readings and a comfortable wear throughout our runs. With a battery life of up to one year, this monitor handles our long runs with ease, and the real-time data transmits directly to our watch, ensuring we stay on target.

Better but not perfect
I have run in this for almost a month. I did experience chafing. I do like this better though than the traditional hrm straps. I put body glide on the areas that are prone to chafing in my chest area/under breast and I don’t chafe during runs.

Underwhelmed
As someone with actual large breasts who runs, this seems to be moving around A LOT during running. I can't imagine it's collecting accurate info. Tried doing a lactic threshold test and it didn't produce any threshold data. Overall im pretty disappointed. I think the men's chest monitor would have provided more consistent contact with my skin and then covering it with my bra would have provided even more stability for the device. I think this is probably great for someone with breasts A-C cup.

Wanted to love it..
I wanted to love this HRM. For some reason it did not lay flat against my rib cage, it came up where the bends where from being on the box and lost contact with my skin. I tried many sports bras and they all could not hold in down against my skin. I am not sure if others have had this issues as well. I will be returning this and going back to the regular chest strap.

Comfortable
I love how comfortable this heart rate monitor is. I don’t even feel it. It fits perfectly on all of my sports bras. I would highly recommend it if you are considering it.

Comfortable and easy to use!
I wanted to have more accurate HR than my watch. It’s so easy to attach to my bra and I don’t feel it

No more chafe!!
I've worn the other HR strap for a few years and essentially just got used to the literal scab on my chest from the chafe after every single run. I tried tightening, loosening, moving it to different spots, everything. Then Garmin does this incredible thing where they created a women's specific product and for the first time ever, NO MORE CHAFE! It's comfortable, easy to clean and put on. It sucks if you already have the other strap, but I'd say if you struggle with chafe like I did with that, it's worth it to purchase. And I love to support women specific products!

Simple and easy
Bought this as sometimes I felt super constructed with the full strap. Hooks on to various sports bras no issues. I do have one sports bra that’s a little looser and I tend to lose connection (especially outside as opposed to on the trainer). Accidentally washed it once and still works.

Very comfortable.
I am loving this HR monitor that connects seamlessly with my sports bra. It is comfortable to wear and seems to track data well with or without the use of my watch during an activity.

Overall good product
I like that it clips easily to my sports bra, that makes it more comfortable that the regular strap. HOWEVER, you have to have the right sports bra or it doesn't get a good reading. I have various lengths sports bras, so this can be challenging. I did chafe with it on my 20 mile run, despite putting body glide on, right by the side clip. I am not sure if this was due to the design, or due to user error. I have had some workouts where I am not sure if it is as accurate as the other heart rate straps since it is not as tight. Time will tell.
