    Shock Absorber - it is incredibly supportive, has good wide straps (essential for carrying anything over a B cup when running ;)). I even used it while breast feeding for my aerobics classes (yes, there was a fair bit of madness going on postbaby. Aerobics 7 weeks postpartum was NOT a great idea!!) when I was a 36F-G (now 36DD/34E)
  • Moving Comfort is a great choice, but if you're looking for some other styles there's plenty of brands out there for you! You can take a look at Panache or Enell. It's surprising how many companies now cater to large-chested women (which is amazing)! For a bit more reading that includes specific styles check this out! Don;t be fooled by the title, if you read-on it's definitely relevant to your problem!

    The one i use is by Under Armor. I have large breasts and this one was perfect because it has criss cross in the back and it closes by zipper in the front. Its just slightly padded but not enough to make things bigger. Its for high impact and let me tell you these things DONT MOVE! I find it difficult at times when im all sweaty to remove the ones with no open/close. That is why the zipper in front is perfect, no over the head etc. It was pricey but worth it

    Thanks for this info, Im waiting for 1 Sept for them to be sold in stores in Aust. Glad Ive finally come across a review from here on them, not just from a generic website.

    Good topic to bring up. I don't care for under wires either. I purchased a couple Champion Women's Action Tech Sports Bra from Amazon, and I really like it. Controls that bouncing if you know what I mean!

    I actually kind of like the C9 Champion sports bra (I get mine at Target). I'm rather large-chested, and it really holds everything. Plus it's cheap. Hah!

    I'm still looking. Being a 34G, I've tried Wacoal, Moving Comfort and a myriad of cheap ones (Jockey, Champion, etc.). I hate them all. I'm going to order the Panache.
    you're close to my size try enell (size 2) and shock absorber. the panache is good as well. a word of warning for the enell it'll fit fine in the rib cage for the bottom hooks but above that you'll have to do a bit of squishing to get the girls hooked in to the vest, but once in you're good to go.

    unfortunately the cup size would be best suited for a size 3, but go by the band because if the band size is too big you'll get too much movement against your skin. that movement leads to chaffing which leads to broken skin. i've been there and done that and just got a smaller size :cry:
  • Lulu Lemon Tata Tamer II or just the original one called the Tata Tamer. Loved it until I lost so much weight they don't make it in my size anymore :( Going to have to go pick up one of their running bras for smaller chested gals now.

    I tried Champion and Under Armour until I found Lululemon. For being a larger size up top, I need the extra support without chaffing. This works, plus I love the name!

    I think this is why I haven't tried Enell. The sizing looks convoluted!

    Bravissimo used to do a brilliant own-brand one but they discontinued it - boo! But equally good are Moving Comfort and Freya. I personally prefer the ones with hooks and wiring that you fasten like a normal bra, not the non wired crop top style that you pull over your head - the latter sort of meshes your boobs together into one long tubular boob. Not attractive!

    My boobs aren't the hugest (I'm a 36C sometimes D) but I find supporting them while working out CRUCIAL.

    You know how many times I've seen women jogging/running down the road with their girls bouncing everywhere? I always comment, "They must not want those to look good later."

    Sagging occurs when the tissues of the breast are torn. This tearing occurs when they aren't properly supported. You probably won't feel this happening, but trust me - it's happening.

    I sometimes wear 2 sports bras just so I'll be confident that they're tightly packed in next to my body and not flying all over the place.

    I highly recommend wearing 2 sports bras to any girls who have large breasts!

    Most of my bras have been Champion, and they work well. However, I recently purchased the Moving Comfort Fiona, and I love it! I especially like the full coverage, seamless shape, and smooth fabric.
