    I like the Eurohalter, too, for it's coverage. It's actually my favorite cycling top. I prefer the fabrics they use that are a print, rather than a solid, because they provide a little distraction.

    I'm generally a modest person, but I don't get too concerned about nipplage, at least not during workouts. If they show, they show. It's no big secret that I have breasts with nipples. I otherwise wear a lightly padded bra that keeps me modest in other settings.

    That photo is awesome.

    Headlights don't bug me. I look for a workout bra that will keep me from bouncing uncomfortably too much. Padding doesn't really factor into it.

    What she said!! And besides, 3/4 of the guys that I ride with have nipplage and don't seem overly concerned about it, LOL!

    I love the Title 9 "Super Lace" bra (aka Moving Comfort)

    The size is slightly off from Natori or DKNY or the size I wear according to Nordstrom (36 DD vs. 38 C) but when you hold the Super Lace up to those bras, they are exactly the same despite the different size designations.

    NO help for headlights, I mean NONE, but as a DD, I really find that headlights are not the issue anymore. (once I lose the 50lbs of stress weight I gained, I'll be back in my older padded bras anyway, and it won't matter. Or my CWX, which are the only bras I've ever found that weren't padded AND controlled headlights: http://www.teamestrogen.com/search.e...form-submit=go )

    If you prefer to wear bras that are not padded, but have issues with headlights, I strongly suggest getting the CWX bras through Team Estrogen.

    If it bothers you, you can always just place a cotton disk in your bra. They are like flattened cotton balls, sold in drugstores. Easy, cheap, effective.

    OMG, Marni. Your bra shopping story is priceless!

    This is pretty much my opinion on things - I have armor piercers though - I gave up worrying about nipplage the day they insisted on showing through no less than FOUR layers Most of the time they are not that stubborn, I must have been really cold that day

    I am glad this topic came up again, I have been pondering some choices for this reason as well.

    You know, I am generally NOT a modest person at all. But the nipple showing thing really bothered me when I belonged to a gym. Now that I do my working out at home, it's not an issue, although it does come up once in awhile when I am riding or running.
