Supportive tri attire?

[Kelly728]

The world of tri wear boggles my mind, though I'm not planning on tri'ing until 2010. For you ladies that are blessed in the chest, do you find you need to wear a sports bra under the top/suit or are there some tops/suits that will actually support you without bouncing through the run? I'm a 34D.

I'm only a 41B+. I get by with tri tops that have a built in shelf bra. I know a lot of larger women double up with a good, supportive bra under their top.

I was wondering the same thing as I dip my big toe into the triathlon world. I'm a 34D also. I'd be interested to hear what other experienced triathloners do for this situation.

After starting triathloning, I dropped from a 38D to a 36C. That's one way to do it. That's not really where I would have chosen to loose any weight, alas, I did not get to choose I use a skirtsport tri top in black, and it seems to work pretty well.

Well 5 years ago I was a 38D so I have dropped quite a bit. I'm hoping not to lose anymore there because I can't afford a new stock of bras right now!
Generally I reach for sports bras with underwire for support and lack of uniboobity. I don't see the underwire being comfortable at all if I have something tight over it. I'll check out the skirtsport top since it appears to be on clearance.

I'm fairly small in the boobage department. But what I found when I started buying tri stuff last year is the high end stuff gave better support. I bought two different levels of Zoot stuff and I could really see a difference.
