    I typically get Champion, Reebok, Adidas, Nike , Fila. I either go to the outlets near me or get them at Target,Marshalls,TJ Maxx or Kohls.

    I like the Champion compression bras from Target - around $15, but they put them on sale fairly often. Old Navy has some decent ones too, also often on sale for about $10.

    I have lululemon and also reebok and I also have cheap ones from Walmart. I find with High Intensity sports like running where the "ladies" tend to move a lot Lululemon is good for that. I have two high intense sport bras from lulu and the ladies dont move an inch. But for regular gym working out my cheap ones are great for that

    I actually love the high-impact Champion sports bras from Target, and I'm pretty picky!! I run and do Insanity and Turbo Fire workouts with lots of jumping, but I've found that they really hold tight and look nice too! I'll definitely be following this thread so I can get suggestions from others though...

    Ha ha, I'm definitely no fitness clothes expert--but I just did go to TJ Maxx and got a bunch of cute sports bras and fitness tanks. They are so much cheaper than some of the other stores. Since I am ALWAYS in workout clothes these days (or so it seems), it stands to reason that I should probably buy nicer things. But so far the ones I have have lasted pretty well!

    I dont have much of a problem with the "girls" anymore ( sigh) since I have lost some weight...but my favorite for running are Champion sports bras from Target- inexpensive and do a good job!

    Gap has some good cheaper sports bras that have lasted me a long time. I'm not big-chested though, so I don't demand a lot of support.

    LuLu is worth the money. Love every item that I have purchased from there. However, Target, Old Navy, TJ Maxx, and items from Amazon work great too!

    I've tried a lot of different brands and I'm hooked on Under Armours black, cross-strap bra. I found it at Cabelas. It is so comfy, I can barely tell I'm wearing it, it wicks away moisture so I stay completely dry and I loveeee it. If I had the money I'd buy more of them.

    I second the Champion sports bras from Target. Best ones I've found yet.
  • If you're looking for quality at an affordable price, try TJ Maxx or Marshalls. You can find a great one from New Balance, Under Armor, Adidas, or Nike for $10-$15. Good deal if you're not picky about brands!

    I like my Champion high impact sports bra, same as many of the other ladies. I did spurge (a bit) and get an under armour high impact sports bra as well and love it. Also, my Fila bra. Ok maybe I'm not picky enough! :laugh:

    I buy the cheap ones. I like Champion. But then I end up using an old regular bra and doubling up with a sports bra. There's just no way around it, Im a 36 G, so unfortunately, I have to smoosh the girls in.

    If you're busty the Lululemon Ta-ta Tamer is worth the money. That thing darn near defies the laws of physics, and was the first sports bra I could run comfortably in.

    An even bustier friend of mine is a huge fan of the Shock Absorber, I haven't tried them yet but she SWEARS by them (she's a 34E, I was 34DD and recently shrank to 34D -- yay!!).

    I think lululemon is overrated even though I do love their yoga shorts! My favorite running tanks are from Nike and Old Navy. I agree with the person who mentioned looking at TJMaxx and Marshalls for them at discounted prices. Target has decent ones, too!

    I like Champion workout clothes. Their sports bras are very nice, very tight though (or maybe i didnt get the right size :laugh:)

    I found some cute workout tops at Ross, if you have one near you!:wink: Favorite running tanks were Champion from Target

    My favorite sports bra is Moving Comfort "Maia" it holds everything in place and is very comfortable. They are a little pricey but I always order mine from Amazon for between $20-$25.

    Oh also, TitleNine has a very good sports bra selection... Not usually cheap but mostly worth the money

    Moving Comfort Fiona. I like that it snaps and isn't a slide-on-over-head, it has good support, and the straps are easily adjustable. At a running store, I paid around $44. On amazon.com, I got some for $25.

    I bought a few Racerback Champion ones off of Amazon for $10-$12 bucks. Really soft and nice. I don't have a ton of boobage (B) so these work well. I tried the Target ones but they just don't fit me right.

    I can't find a fitness tank that has similar support that isn't horribly expensive so for now I just use a Champion bra under some cheap tank tops from JCPenney's ($5 ish)

    Amazon is a girl's best friend for finding exactly what you need. Also I like to read reviews.
    Hope you and your "girls" find what you need. :)

    I LOVE Shock Absorber and Anitas are pretty good too. I have tried the cheaper ones and unfortunately dont work for me. I am larger busted (40 F) and dont like my girls my flopping all over the place. Well worth the money IMO.

    I won't wear a sports bra that isn't Shock Absorber - I love my high impact bra :smile:

    NIKE, NIKE, NIKE all the way :) I just love that extra thick band at the bottom and it's such a good fit, it holds the girls down well :)

    Tj Max is the best for workout clothes.. I buy all my sports bras and tops/bottoms there.

    I'm def. an Under Armor snob.. and will buy that over almost every other brand. They have the best workout tanks I think.. so soft and comfortable!

    You should try Title Nine- google their website... they make bras for girls with girls. :) I have to do the multi bra thing for high impact workouts unless my Title Nine bra is clean!! They aren't cheap tho.
