Default Plus size sports bra
Hi all! I am wondering if anyone has found plus size sports bras. I am looking for one in a size 46 DDD. Yikes!

Barenecessities.com might have what you need. Most likely, you'll need to order online, you won't find what you need in a store.

When I started out, I was a 44D or 44DD depending on the maker, and sometimes I would layer sports bras, and it helped.

Also check x-chrom.com, which has ratings on supportiveness, wicking, all that.

Titlenine.com doesn't carry plus sizes but they do have good write-ups on what this bra does as opposed to what that bra does. It's a good research tool even if you're not shopping there.

TRY the Enell before you buy. They're not adjustable in the band/width or the straps, so either they fit or they don't.

If it is yoga or low impact like that? Target Champion bras will do.

Moderate to high impact? Lunaire Coolmax Underwire Sports Bra.

If it is anything with more impact? Enell! That's total boob armor.

Check www.title9sports.com -- I like the barbell rating on the bras even though I do not like that they change the bra names. They carry the Lunaire but they call it something else -- the Wired And Ready For Action Sports Bra. The call the Enell the "The Last Resort Sports Bra."

Maria, thank you for letting me know!

Astrophe, Thanks for the breakdown. I am looking for light jogging/running so perhaps the Lunaire?

I have an Enell. I absolutely love it. No bounce. A regular straight jacket for boobies.
