From Cocoperez (sorry! lol) http://cocoperez.com/2011-07-26-new-sports-bra-helps-reduce-bounce


Get ready for a new type of sports bra ladies, one that actually keeps you held in place.
The new bra will hold each breast separately instead of pressing both against the rib cage.

Unfortunately, the bra was created by Panache, a lingerie branch for larger-breasted women, so the sports bra will come in sizes D to H and will retail for around $55.

The company says they have spent three years researching and now preparing to launch this October.
And according to their research, the bra helped reduce bounce by 83%, compared to 65% from rival bras.
Designer Clare Fallon reveals:

“This was probably the hardest bra that I have ever had to design because there were so many elements to it. Most people think designing a bra is just cutting out two triangles and sewing them together – they don’t realise just how much technical work goes into it.”

Sounds like a good idea, but what about the smaller-breasted women? They need a great sports bra as well.

(Panache is a great bra company - so happy to have found this)

    Technically I'm a DD, but my ribcage is only a 30, so it doesn't really count as "large chested" in my book. Shock Absorber has a fantastic bra that I use for all sizes. Your assets don't move an inch. They say that bounce is reduced by 78% so it's pretty good.

    Omg thanks for sharing! I swear by Panache as they're the only ones that make 30G bras that don't look like they're for old ladies. And bluemist248 I think they may even be UK based? Either way I order all mine from a store in the UK, so never fear!

    Panache is known for making large cups for small bodies. My friend is a G cup but is otherwise a petite woman (wearing an average size 8-10 US for the rest of her body) and swears by Panache, so I believe they will make this bra in the same way. (just noticed the above post re: 30G heh)

    I love my shock absorber, and indeed, nothing moves - but the girls get squished and I often break out from sweat (sorry for the TMI), so I am looking forward to something that lifts and separates ;-)

    AWESOME!!! I will definitely be looking into this! I'm a 34G/36F, and I've never invested in a good sports bra but I plan on doing so within the next few months. As far as the smaller chested ladies, I have no concern. Buying bras for A-C, even D cups really isn't an issue, and since there isn't much there most bras provide sufficient support. It's a whole different ball game when you've got back issues from having breasts so large and being otherwise average/petite sized (i'm 5'3", size 8.)

    my boobs are 30F and they dont move at all in my freya underwired sports bra.

    I think the main problem with most people and sports bras, is that theyre wearing the wrong size bra to begin with, and even in the best sports bra, if youre not wearing exactly the right size, youre going to get movement. Most people are wearing too big a band, and too small a cup
