What is the best exercise bra to buy???

Options
Going shopping for a new exercise bra. I am a currently C38. I had a breast reduction five years ago so just want a bra that is super comfy and will keep the girls from bouncing. Any suggestions?:smile:

Thanks

    i am a 40D and my favorite is Champion. I used to get them at Kohls and died when they quit selling them but i found them at Target, they cost like $15 and the girls stay in place, i can run without pain!

    I too had a breast reduction a few years ago and it makes it easier to exercise! I love Moving comfort bras (Im a 36D) in either Juno or fiona styles.

    Well... I'm bigger than the others it seems at 38DD/DDD (would love to have reduction some day), but over the weekend I found the first bra that has allowed the girls to "stay where they are supposed to be" - lol. It's a bright red Nike satin like thing and you'd think I won a million bucks. I found it at TJMaxx for only $14.99. It's much better than the Champion I paid $30 for. I actually jogged/ran on Sunday for the first time since high school and it was awesome not having to worry about hurting myself ;)

    I got my champion at Sports Chek and love it. I've also have a bunch of good ones from Lululemon, although they are pricier.

    I used to get the little band bras with the tiny spaghetti straps but those just didn't give even me enough support (I am a B/C depending on the bra).

    Now I like to get my exercise clothes from walmart (I know, I know, but I REALLY like them, and you can't beat $7 for a top!). I get racerback shirts that have the bra built in (sooo much nicer than wearing two seperate articles of clothing, I HATE layers :grumble: ), and most of them come with a little pocket for my music device. Super cute and keep the girls in check!

    I JUST purchased a Donna Karan bra from Title Nine. I am 36DD and finding an exceptional sports bra has been a challenge. I am in LOVE with this bra! I'm ordering three more this weekend. Well worth the money. Separation, no spillage, extra support and it doesn't look like a scary contraption. www.titlenine.com. One of my dear running friends recommended the site and well, I'm in love.

    Shock Absorber bras are the best, hand's down. It's the only bra I could wear alone for jogging, and the cup sizes run from A - HH I believe. OP if you live in Canada, they sell them at the Bay.

    Amazon.com sells Enell sports bras that are wonderful.

    You can also probably get Champion bras from Target.com if you can't make it to a store.

    My best recommendation, though, is to take a day and go to a local sports store, grab a ton of bras, and try them on until you find one you like. Bounce up and down in the dressing room, jog around the dressing room area for a bit, and test them out.

    I purchased a Moving Comfort Juno a few months ago from Amazon and I LOVE it! I'm a 32D and it really hold the girls in place. It is a racer back which is often hard to find in larger cup sizes. Has adjustable straps and doesn't have the uniboob look. Love, Love, Love it!

    I did have a Shock Absorber when I was bigger (36F) and it was pretty good.

    I agree, I like the champion sports bras, as well. I'm wanting to get something a little 'sturdier' though.

    Suggestions?

    I have no idea what brand mine are but I got them at JC Penney for like $15 on sale. They zip up the front and are "stiffer" than other ones. (can't think of a better way to describe) they must be lined with something between the outer and inner lining. they work great on my DDs and don't cut into my skin anywhere.

    Wacoal Sport has some really great exercise bras! I am a 36G so finding a good sports bra for running can be a pain in the behind! They carry Wacoal sport at Nordstrom, I usually order mine online. Good luck :)

    I've tried a bunch over the years but recently found the one and only that I think is really worth the money (about $25) and the title "exercise bra". I'm a 34 D and I get no bounce even when running or doing Zumba.

    Moving Comfort Women's Maia Bra

    After trying it out I immediately bought 2 more.
