I wear a 36DDD and have never seen a sports bra in my size....perhaps I'm lookin in the wrong place...?

I end up wearing my comfortable bra...but it has hardly any support...

any suggestions?

I'm the same size and wear a Moving Comfort Fiona in a 36d (my everyday bras are 36dd). It's adjustable at the band and the straps and is the best thing I've found so far.
There's also other good ones the girls have mentioned...

EDIT: Just realized I missed a 'D'. Sorry. Try Title nine sports. The Fiona only goes up to DD....but there are others (I don't have experience with) that go higher.

Go to Junonia, they have a variety of larger clothes.

I never shop at Title Nine, they are limited to tiny sizes. They carried larger size clothes for one season, then quit. Wish they would start again.

I think Enell makes one.

I just picked up a Moving Comfort Cara and it is the most comfortable sports bra I have ever worn, with lots of support. I am a 34D and have never had any luck finding a comfortable sports bra, with full support, and no "uniboob." I am definitely picking up a few more of these.

Elk,

My last batch of lingerie bra purchases put me in a 36DD or 36DDD depending on the style.

I've been wear testing a Moving Comfort Calli Bra and I'm VERY impressed.

We'll be carrying Moving Comfort beginning in a few weeks, and we've ordered heavily in their sports bras for D,DD & E (E is basically a DDD).

I am quite a bit smaller at a fluctuating 34D/36D (gosh I never get to say I small up top :rolleyes:). I like the Moving Comfort bra for running, for cycling I can get away with less support unless I am mountain biking. I was hesistant about the price of the moving comfort so I finally found one on sale at REI to try, it is worth the full sticker price. I think mine is the Fiona but I would have to look at the tag.

I wore this bra (http://www.titlenine.com/jump.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&itemID=2172) before I had my reduction, it was a bit of overkill but it did the job.

Others have mentioned the Enell bra, and I second that. It's a great supportive bra for higher impact activities such as running.

I LOVE the Enell. Wear it for everything: running, cycling, xcountry skiing, triathlon... No bouncing whatsoever! :cool: And no stabbing pains in the post-workout shower :eek:

Could you breathe when you wore it? Just curious. As someone whose mosquito bite boobs need no bra to bike I am so jealous of you ladies and your beauties.

Not well, but then again with E cups you never breathe well, they put too much pressure on the diaphragm.

That's the Enell Bra. Title Nine doesn't tell you who the manufacturer of all their products are, and they re-name almost everything. In this case, I think the new name is brilliant. Nonetheless, it's the standard Enell.

I absolutely *love* the Enell's.... I'm a 38DD, and they seem to fit me really well.

I'm a 34DD and really love my CW-X sports bra (http://www.teamestrogen.com/prodCW_165102.html) which offers wonderful support (and goes up to DD but is quite snug) but prefer more encapsulation (separation) so I tried on a Moving Comfort Maia (http://www.teamestrogen.com/prodMC_505508.html) and LOVED IT :D I can't afford it right now so I'm waiting for a coupon/discount to get one :)
