    Sports bra with "coverage"

    Hi ladies. I've seen a lot of recommendations for sports bras which offer optimal support and which are most comfortable, but what I can't find are recommendations for sports bras that are thick enough to prevent my body from announcing to the world that I'm chilly (if you catch my drift). I've tried padded C9/Champion bras, running bras, Moving Comfort "Fiona" and none of them are thick enough.

    I'm self-conscious enough about waltzing through the office en route to the ladies room in a sweaty shirt & shorts. Add in a couple of pointy bits and I'm mortified. Currently, I'm wearing a couple of older Lane Bryant bras that used to be part of my everyday collection. I'd like to find something specifically for exercise activities. Can anybody recommend something suitable for a 40C?

    Thanks!
    I don't mind the rat race but I could do with a little more cheese.

    I recently bought the Panache Sports Bra, it's comfortable and good looking, and quite thick in the front, it doesn't show anthing.
    Also, it comes in a wide variety of sizes and some different colors.

    If you're happy with the support of the bras you have, maybe try some of those Nippits?

    I'm a huge fan of the RoadRunnerSports RRS bra. It's extremely supportive, has a few layers of material, so it's not so revealing, and it's cheap. They also last forever.

    Two thoughts:

    - The folks at Team Estrogen are very knowledgeable about their products, so they might be able to recommend something.

    - I like Bezi Bra Discs for everyday wear. I haven't tried them for exercise, but I think they'd work for that too.

    - Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle
    - Royal blue 2018 aluminum gravel bike, Rivet Pearl saddle

    Gone but not forgotten:
    - Silver 2003 aluminum road bike
    - Two awesome worn out Juliana saddles

    You might want to try Moving Comfort. They are pricey, but I love them. REI sells them, so if you don't like them you can take them back, even if you have worn them.
