Can anyone point me in the direction of some good supportive running bras? Im a 32DD/E and i have been wearing a triumph triaction extreme with a cheapy sports bra ontop also to control movement! I just need something deccent and not too overpriced?

    I (sadly) don't have that problem but I hear from more chesty friends that the Under Armour ones are really supportive.

    I've been using Moving Comfort's bra line.

    I have 2 which keep mine rock solid! First is a Shock Absorber, great bra but can be a bit tricky to get off especially if you are sweaty. Second is from Marks and Spencer's, very lightweight (makes the other one feel like industrial scaffolding!) but still keeps everything where it should be.

    Honestly....I would check out VS's semi annual sale. I have their sports bras and they are really good with support. I only buy them when they are on sale because normal priced they can be up there. But they are decent priced when they hit the sale area.

    I've been buying a Champion brand one from Target and it works really well for me. It runs about $15 so I have a bunch of them.

    I'm a big fan of moving comforts as well. I wear a 38ddd. Check out title nine clothing company. They do tons of research on their sports bras and I have never ever been steered wrong.

    I like the moving comfort fiona bra. I'm a 34D/32DD and it is comfortable and keeps the girl under control.

    I'm a Moving Comfort fan, personally. They are slightly pricey, but I'm just having to get rid of one of my MC sports bras now after 10 years of use. They last and have a rock solid hold. I also have two Road Runner Sports bras, and I really like those as well.

    Try ebay for running bras. I've bought three shock absorbers recently and haven't paid more than £7.50 including postage for each one brand new.

    debenham's does shock absorber and I think it's the best one by far.

    I am DD+ (depending on the style) and got one from Old Navy that works suprisingly well... but we'll see how it holds up.

    I have both a Shock Absorber and a Moving Comfort Fiona, and the MC is far and away the better of the two. I strap it on and off I go, and nothing is moving anywhere, and that's quite a feat for these 34DDs. The SA is really wimpy, and the X-back design leads to teh straps riding up my shoulders toward my neck, resulting in uniboob and flappage. Not cool. The MC is a joy. My only concern is that there's very little shielding the world from the knowledge that you're cold, if you catch my drift...

    PANACHE!!!!!

    I paid a lot for mine (~£45 I think), but I am a 34FF and they hold ROCK SOLID while I'm running.

    I had a shock absorber but I didn't like it - it never held solid enough and the straps used to loosen while I ran - NOT HELPFUL!

    Moving Comfort Fiona Bra. It has clasps in the back and adjustable straps for a perfect fit. The straps have velco so they never slip. I am a 34 D and breastfeeding, and this is the first bra I have felt kept the girls from hitting me in the face.

    Thanks girls for suggestions :)

    I am not a fan of shock absorber. I bought the flexiwire and it is completely lose on the straps and provides zero support! Xox

    I love my Moving Comfort "Fiona" bras...supportive and very adjustable.

    However...the "fiona" can tend to show it if you are a little "nipply"...as my race photos will attest.
