Question for my ladies with D's & Double D's

HazelDiva1913

Hello ladies,
I am currently in a 38DD bra. When i work out my breast are everywhere. I really need to find a supportive sports bra. I buy mine from target. Where have you found great SUPPORTIVe sports bras? or do you wear more than 1?? ?Thanks

I use to find good bra's at Khols (when I had boobs). They have a wide selection of old trusted names and several price points.

For working out, I used to buy the wireless bras from JC Penney.

I wear a 38 DDD. I have found that if I wear an underwire bra under my sports bra, my boobs dont bounce all over the place. I mean they will always move some, but I feel that they are more supported with two.

I hope that helps.

I just bought some last week from walmart. It was their cheapest ones for like 10.00 bucks. I love them, they work great and I am a triple D. Hope that helps

I am nowhere near a Double D but I have to wear 2 sports bras whenever I do any type of cardio. For strength training/walking I can get away with only one.

I go through bras so frequently that I usually purchase the Target bras too!

most good department stores (I shop at Dillards) should have a decent selection. Right now I'm wearing one I got at Ross for about $10,brand is Moving Comfort that I really like.

I'm from the UK so brands may differ – but I wear a Shock Absorber bra and it's excellent. They have different types depending on what kind of exercise you're doing. Maybe £25 ($30?) but worth it.

i'm in your boat. I can't wait to get to goal and get them reduced and perky

anyhow....jumping jacks are hard. i HATE the bounce. I've googled "large breasts high impact bra" and found some good brands, but they seem pretty pricey and not really in my budget until next year

I had been wearing a hanes sports bra from Target - with my tatas pouring out the top, and before i adjust them, the sides, too. *sigh*

Until the other day when I thought to wear my most supportive (ugly) bra *under* my sports bra. WOW what a difference. I was able to do my jumping jacks w/ minimal bounce.

I am a 40DD. I found some really great supportive sports bras at Walmart. Before that, I used to wear 2 bras, or I would wrap myself. I know. Sounds funny, but it worked. :-)

I have an ENELL sports bra. Most supportive one I have ever owned, but it came with a hefty price. I think they have sizes that go all the way up to an F or G? You can look for them on EBAY as well...sometimes they are cheaper there.

Same and Same. 38DD+ (depends on the bra) and I wear a GOOD SUPPORTIVE underwire under my sports bra as well and it REALLY helps. I picked up a SUPER supportive tank (at WalMart- it's the Gabby Reese line) and I tried to couple that with just a sports bra and it's still not enough- damn near gave myself a black eye. :bigsmile: That tank with an underwire worked really well though. Oh and I've found buying down a size in the sports bra gives more suppot (and better uniboob). :flowerforyou:

I'm a 38F who is forced into buying and squeezing into 40DD's because I can't find my bra size anywhere. I found a sports bra at Wal Mart that was a 42D and with a lift and tuck they stay in place nicely. If anyone knows a place/website in Canada that I can get bras from please let me know. Being big is bad enough but having this chest that won't fit into anything is almost worse

Khols has one that I love it is by lilly of france. It has the underwire on the outside of the bra. It is VERY comfortable! I have even used this bra when I have flown overseas (a 14/15 hour flight!). It is actually one of my favorite bras

HazelDiva1913

AWESOME...Thanks so much for your responses. Im going to check out all of these places and I will try wearing two bras tomorrow. and a wire bra u nder my sports bra the next day. My sister has been telling me that she wears 2 bras every workout but I thought it was silly. I guess it really works. Will put this into action. Thanks ladies

vi_msbehavin

I wear a *cough*G*cough* and I use a really cheap one and it sorta does the job. I saw a really good one by champion but of course not in my size...they offered it in different categories eg. High impact, medium impact and so on. You can try googling it!

bainos

Im here for you Ladies!!!!!! Love them d's!!!! lol.

clairealaniz

This has been my solution too! Actually the Playtex 18 hour bra's with a sports bra over it has worked better. I don't have any wires digging anywear and a just went down a size on the sports bra! Once the sports bra fit a little better I felt even more motivated!

I am a 40DD and I have found the perfect bra at Cacique (Layne Bryant). Its the Smooth Balconette bra. I will swear by these bras. They are very comfortable underwire bra. I wear them daily and to the gym. They cover everything you need them to. They are about 35-40 each but you can just about always find them on sale. If you decide to try these.. make sure you use their guidlines for measuring.

I wear a 38DD and I wear two sports bras when working out. I have purchased really good Nike bras from TJ MAXX or Ross. These bra's last longer than the Hanes bras.

I am a 36DD. I have a Champion sports bra that does ok. Make sure you have one with racer back or under wire. My sports bras work ok for light activity (walking/ biking) but if i’m doing anything vigorous (kickboxing elliptical) I wear a regular bra with a compression tank top and another tank top over it and that seems to hold the girls down pretty good…. Wearing double bras has worked for me to but I find all the straps to be annoying… Hope this helps. Good luck!

I usually wear 2 sports bras...I also get mine from Target

CombatVet_Armywife

I have always had issues with my chest size when it comes to exercise...so annoying! I'm a D and I have tried SO many sports bras (from brand name/high priced to no brand/low price) since I've been a workout addict for about 12 years now. Always have a hard time finding a good supportive bra that won't let me bounce all over the place.

I found a great bra @ walmart for 10 bucks that works GREAT! Danskin- high impact....I run a lot, do a lot of jumping around for different exercises...works great! Good luck!

lilRicki

one lady recommended some from wal-mart, i can't remember the brand but they're $10, i wear fruit of the loom from wal-mart 3 for $15 (canadian) i find them pretty supportive, depending on what i'm doing i will wear 2 without discomfort

fluffypbunny

I am a 36 DD and obviously have the same problem. I found some great bra's at Sports Authority. I can't remember the brand, but they are racer back and an underwire. I think it was around 34 dollars. On top of that I always wear a compression sports bra. The only way I keep them under control is double wrapping those suckers!!! HA HA HA HA Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, so I am quite endowed and have found that for normal workouts the wearing of 2 sports bras is so needed. When I go to Zumba classes or do cardo I wear my regular underwire bra PLUS the two sports bras. Let's just say that since doing that I can now do jumping without fear of hurting myself (or someone else)! :laugh:

ashleyinthestars

When I was at my largest, I was a DDD and am now down to a D. I have always worn 2 bras for the extra support, though at my biggest it was a non-underwire "ugly" regular bra and a sports bra; now I wear two sports bras and I bought them both from Walmart. Dont know the brand names off hand but I know they were pretty cheap.

AGirlandHerFrenchie

I'm a DD as well and have been for ever - I'm a runner as well and have never found a bra that works well for high impact cardio. I have been wearing 2 sports bras for as long as I can remember and they definitely do the trick. I get them a little smaller than I want them as well because I find it holds them in place better and they stretch after a little while as well.

Unfortunately, when we are as big as we are (I too am a 36-38 D-DD) we have to spend a pretty penny for good supportive bras. You aren't going to find what you need at Target, Kohl's, WalMart, Sears, etc. I get mine from Nike. They are expensive (can run upwards of $50 each) but my girls don't move at all when I run.

Check out the Playtex bras at JMS.com. They have a good selection, good prices, and I find that the Playtex support a bit better than most if you get the better made ones. I wear Lane Bryant bras without the underwire every day but the Playtex ones are better for motion. Good luck!
