Sports Bra/what to do

[trigurl]

I am a 36D and I ended up wearing 2 sports bras! I haven't found one that fits right after much trying on. I buy 2 cheap ones and wear them, make sure that they both and comfortable tho, I tried the 1 medium 1 large and I could barely breathe BUT I don't bounce when I run I now wear 2 larges and find that sufficient.

I'm also a 36DD and very happy with my Moving Comfort Fiona bra, and use it for hiking, jogging, road and mountain biking. I could even jump rope in this sucker. I was worried about the adjustable straps on my misshapen collarbone but they aren't rubbing on that or on the normal side, either. So far everything's staying in place. They do seem to be sized a hair bigger than my regular bras so I got the 36D. I've only had it for a month but use it about 3 times a week-so far it's holding up fine under the washings/bouncings.

I am a full 36D and I wear a champion razerback from Target. You can also get it online at the champion website. I posted the link to it on another post I will try to find it. They are not very expensive and are totally breathable. I love mine. I have four of them and wear them at home all the time.

I just went to a race clinic, and the sales rep from CW-X showed up. Their bra is really kinda neat - support straps that criss-cross inside to provide the support, instead of just squishing everything. THe material is really light, soft and silky - and Coolmax. The only problem is that they say the large fits a 36B/C. Now, if it will only stop raining long enough for me to get outside and really try it out! Oh - look - web addy on the label www.cw-x.com

I used to be a 40E so I can feel your pain. Prior to my breast reduction I was just miserable but found the "Frog Bra" from Title 9 to be the least painful, I wore it uniboob style but it did the job.

I'm a dainty 36D but used to be a double-bagger until I found the Champion doubledry... forget exactly which one.

I can't wear it forever, though, without the ribs starting to bug me. I wear it under my tri suit which is a big improvement over having to put one on over the bathing suit in the transitions (I was afraid I had so much cotton/lycra that it would drag me to the bottom of the pool :-)). At least there was a lady hanging 'round who could give me an extra tug... the poor bike-watcher was a teenage kid who probably would have died of embarrassment

I think Irulan's idea of checking out title9 is a good one. Also, you might call them as they have terrific advice about how certain bras fit certain types of figures. I understand the Enell is a great bra, but quite the straightjacket, perhaps too much so for your ribs?

You could get Nordstroms to check your fit. Most people wear too large a bra for their ribcage size, but you may have erred the other direction?

The bra I use isn't a sports bra and it's also not cheap since it's a Wacoal, but it works and keeps the boobs looking like boobs. I'm 32DDD and am not keen on the uniboob look.

It's Wacoal 85814, known as a Bodysuede.

What makes them worthwhile to me is they last forever, even with very frequent washings. I line-dry them and they don't seem to break down.
