I wear a G cup (wow, that is embarassing to actually type), so it's impossible for me to find anything off the rack at all. I ended up ordering a Lunaire Underwire Sports Bra, and it was really one of the most comfortable bras of any type I've ever worn. Plus it actually worked! Most bras leave me bouncing to the point of pain. I ended up buying a DDD size since they don't go up to G, but I just increased the band size. Unfortunately, the wire just decided it would be fun to escape and stab me in the side so now I'm without a sports bra at the moment. (I should have bought more at the time, but I didn't expect it to actually fit when I bought it online. You know how that goes.)
I just got a new sports bra and had to come sing its supportive praises. Wow, is it sturdy, and I'm shocked by how good it feels. I told my husband that the gel straps make it feel like it's "caressing my shoulders." OK, he rolled his eyes, too, but it is fantastic. It's the Double Dry Strap Underwire from Champion (I'm a 42C, if that info helps), and it's apparently won some awards. I was a little wary of the underwire, because I was afraid it would dig, but I didn't even feel it. The fabric is also kinda cool -- feels a little space age, but after my workout today, my bra was still dry even though the rest of me wasn't.
I highly recommend it, much more than the other Champion bra I have had for a while, which didn't give as much support as I'd have liked. I only wish the new one came in larger sizes (goes up to 42D) so *everyone* could feel the boobie love.
I really hate spending a lot of money on sports bras but I found myself avoiding certain activities because I didn't have an appropriate one. But, I bought one from Champion- for larger busts (34C, not huge but not "cute little workout gear size") and it's amazing. It wasn't cheam @$46 but I'd buy another one in a heart beat
On the subject of bras. Oprah's supposed to be having a show on Friday, 5/20/05, on how to correctly choose the right bra. Let me tell ya, I'm there. I can't, for the life of me find a bra that actually fits like it's supposed to.
I've just started to wear a Brooks Pro-fit for running. I cannot tell you how great it is! For the first time I can run 10 miles and not be sore after - not just my breasts, but my nipples, too (oh, TMI?). It also has removeable pads for "nipple modesty", which I love. I cannot recommend it enough. It retails for about $40, but worth it. It was also rated as one of the top 9 running bras in the August Runner's World magazine. (I am a 38C).
Ive found an awesome bra... tho not a sports bra per say.. but check the new line of hanes her way bra's.. they have a new style with a padded underwire.. its the first time ever a bra didnt pinch or hurt me... and they are really on the low end of cost.. @10.00 and u can find them at target
Awww thanks! I didn't even realize until today when I finally got a minute to update my siggy. LOL! I'm off work today and finally getting a chance to breathe while Gage is napping. He was a moody little monster this morning! LOL!
I just got the most amazing sports bra. I wear a 34 DDD and i managed to fit into a large (which should fit up to a 36 d or so) of an underarmour heat gear sports bra. It was pricey (about 40.00) but it feels awesome, very supportive, and not an ugly uniboob maker. It actually keeps my boobs up where they belong instead of flopping down.
I have a Lunaire sports bra (style 11111 1245) and I love it. I got it from a specialty shop so it was pricy but so worth it. I am a 40D and those cheep ones just do not do the trick for me. I recomend this one for anyone who is having a hard time finding one they like.
Where was this thread when I was shopping my lil heart out!! J/k. I'm a very difficult fit, 33" band and F cup, after trying on several different types and brands at the specialty shop I bought my running shoes, the sales rep special ordered a Enell Style NL100 in size 2. The girls go NO WHERE!!! And they do not touch each other (I sooo hate that). Kinda pricy but worth every dime.
but it is fantastic. It's the
