    Unhappy No more uniboob!!!

    Any one found a sports bra that keeps you semi dry and does not cause a horrible uniboob? I haven't found one yet. Thought I had a great one...just saw pictures today and I was sadly mistaken.

    CW-X. (by Wacoal)

    Several of us have them. Very comfortable, very breathable/quick drying, no "headlights" and no uniboob!

    There are a few different bra styles and support levels. I'm a 34C and wear a medium "Sport Support".

    Best bra I've ever had, bar none.

    Best of all, you can buy CW-X right here on TE!

    Moving Comfort Maia Bra, comes in a few different colors. Very attractive, no uniboob, tons of support. I am a 36 DDD, before this one, I was wearing two to three bras at a time (ouch).

    I use CW-X daily for high impact and love it. I bought the sport version from TE. I also wear one from Moving Comfort when I run. Both are excellent.

    I don't know which model, but I have Moving Comfort too -- the uniboob is not comfortable when it's hot or you're sweating, and so it was important to me to find "lift and separate" in a sports bra. I bought two! DH got sticker shock when I bought the second one, he didn't realilze how much it costs to get good support (of any kind, not just boob-support!)

    Is there anything similar to these in a long bra top? I don't always like to wear a jersey/top over my bra when its hot, but my tummy isn't ready for display! Thanks!

    I have a couple Moving Comfort bra tops. CW-X makes a couple, too. (TE carries one)

    Sports Bra

    I have tried them all and I love the Donna Karan Intimates Signature Active Sport - it has underwire on the outside and is the only tue DDD I have found. No bouncing, but you can breathe.

    Has anyone tried the Patagonia Capilene Classic bra? Looks nice and cooling, but is an underwire and that might not be comfy while riding? Opinions?

    I've got a CW-X and it's my most uniboob-y bra... I really don't much like it.

    I'm a 36C - The two I've got that I love, which really don't "turn my two into one" are:
    Moving Comfort Cara bra
    Natori Sport Underwire Sport bra (I just got it from Title 9, where they call it the "LW Underwire Bra")

    The other one I wear that I like but does have a little bit of a uniboob tendency is the Champion Shape T-Back Sports Bra. It does not have an underwire, so it's nice for yoga & probably also for cycling.

    Has anyone else tried on the new Nike "Revolutionary Support Bra"? It's the strangest thing - I tried it on in a store but was not convinced that it would actually be supportive and comfortable. It really seemed designed by someone who wanted jiggle.

    Haven't tried the Nike bra. For $70, it should do anything and everything you would want it to!!

    I wore an el cheapo Hanes Sports bra, purchased at Target for around $10, tonight when I was mtb'ing. It's a racer back. No underwire. Nice shoulder straps. No uniboob at all, comfy, but it does get a bit damp. I wouldn't want to wear it when it's really hot out. It was about 70 F tonight, when I rode. I just looked to check. It's a 34C, and fits comfortably, tho' in a regular bra, I would need at least a D. I'm glad I found it. I plan on buying at least one more.
