THis is the one I have. I love it.

I use the Moving Comfort Maya bra. It is pretty nice. I have heard the Fiona is better but I was able to get the Maya SUPER CHEAP so I tried that first and I've gone through a few so far.

I recently bought a 42DD sports bra from a shop on eBay - very reasonable price too (£14.99 if I recall correctly including p&p!) it's worth running a search for sports bra and your size as most people list the sizes available in the item's title.

Another rec for Moving Comfort!

Love those bras. I'm packing some goods (also in the D family - during my weight loss I went from a 34DD to a 32DD, but wear 34D sports bras), and the Moving Comfort ones really hold them in place. I am NEVER going back.

Jennloella · June 2013

I like Under Armour, they have several styles but I need mine strapped down I don't want to feel any movement. I'm a 38 D.

I bought the Glamorise double layer sports bra. I am a 38 F and found that jumping jacks hurt very badly. The only thing that I do not like is the time it takes to get it on since there are 5 hooks in the back. I love that it has 5 hooks in the back though, very good back support. It is essentially a soft no wire bra under and a bib on top that you hook into one of the 4 settings depending on much you want to restrict movement. I didn't feel squished or have a uniboob when wearing it and it gives great support.

I wear a sports bra 24-7. I bought this one about 10 months ago and I love it! (42D).

cyrena13 · June 2013

36D here; Moving Comfort Maia is my sport bar of choice. Really comfortable and little movement. Worth every penny.

Ashshell · June 2013

I wear a regular bra with a cheap (>$20) sports bra from Target over top of it. Works perfectly for me.

losin4ever · June 2013

bare neccessitites carry a great sports bra called energizer......I'm a 40H and love it......it is costly but worth it...can also find on ebay little cheaper..here's some links...

great product!!!

jenns1964 · June 2013

barenecessities.com has great bras.

yuliyax · June 2013

I have Triumph Tri-Action Extreme Sports Bra and Shock Absorber Ultimate Run, love them both, nothing jiggles and nothing bounces. I prefer Triumph one because it is seamless and feels nicer on the skin.

jennifer_417 · June 2013

I wear 2 bras. Some people don't like this option, but I never found it uncomfortable, and it sure keeps the girls in place.

flpmomi · June 2013

I used to do an old bra with a cheap spandex sports bra until I found an awesome one at Lane Bryant. It was $42 but well worth it and I got it when they were having the buy one get one so even better. Its one of the best sports bras I have ever worn and its so comfy.

Joreanasaurous · June 2013

I swear by the Fiona sports bra (and they are reasonably priced). I can workout in these and not think about my boobs so that's awesome.

http://www.movingcomfort.com/Fiona/350003,default,pd.html

As with any good sports bra, you will need to pay a little more but it's totally worth it!

I second this. Not only can I run in it without bounce, but as a bonus it is cute so I can run in t without a shirt on when it gets hot. I have 3 o f them and have no idea how I managed before this bra.

soulmatesnvrdie · June 2013

This one is the first one I've found that does the job for me at a DDD that I got in-store at Dillard's (they have bigger sizes too) and I also like it because there is no uni-boob issue, I've worn it as an everyday bra a few times under my t-shirts because it is so comfortable.

MrsGriffin67 · June 2013

I use the Victoria's Secret VSX VS Pro Sport Bra...I could stand on my head and my boobies ain't goin' nowhere

It comes in sizes for the fluffier chest. I typically wear a 40D but I bought the 38C for even more support. They are a little pricey but if you can find some coupon codes it makes them easier to afford.

ETA - I also bought my a little smaller to make sure they fit as I lose weight. After investing that much in them I want to make sure they are going to fit me for quite a while.

bongochick45 · June 2013

I'm an H cup so I just gave up on finding sports bras that fit. Hell finding regular bras that fit is a task. But I do like wearing support tanks. They suck everything in and hold everything down. My coworker was telling me about bally bras. You can find them at nordstrom. I'm gonna order one this month and report back.

drinknderive · June 2013

Another vote for the Fiona bras. They're supportive and reasonably priced.

JenNuma · June 2013

juliekinn · June 2013

Thanks for the great suggestions! Really helpful thread.

sunnysmile · June 2013

Bump. Great thread

A frustration with bra sizes is not only limited cup size but many bras manufacturers won't make anything wider than 40 band, and many not that high. A lot of women wear wider than 40 that need support and want to exercise! I worked hard to get to a size that stores carry and bra manufacturers make, but I used to cry trying to find one that fit right in cup and band. I am excited to learn of Panache 5021 and the others and will find a store to try on.

sash3619 · June 2013

My vote is for Under Armour. I wear 36D and it was the first sport bra that allowed me to do jumping, running etc very comfortably. And boobs look great in it under the shirt::).

HappyElizabeth · June 2013

36D here. I rotate between various Moving Comfort bras and the Champion Powerback. I've found the Champion Powerback is the most flattering sportsbra I've ever owned (and fairly inexpensive!), but the Moving Comfort provide more support.

ruthallie · June 2013

I am a 40D and I use Victoria Secrets Sports Bra, its one of the best supportive Sports Bra I have ever used!

xampx · June 2013

I am a G/GG/H cup and I swear by the shock absorber level 4 highest impact bras. I just got a new one in a smaller size

The bigger one is so great, I just wear it whenever I am not working out now

JeninBelgium · June 2013

I like either the panache 5021 (It hink that is the number, the one where the back can convert to racer mode) or Enell- I flow out of the enell but- it is my strap-em down option

Jessifer83 · June 2013

Bump for later

coopers11 · June 2013

I have a shock absorber run bra. It has a fastener at the back and one at the shoulder blades and I have hardly any bounce now (plus it makes the girls look great!)

sports bras for the more top heavy. suggestions??
