I'm hesitant to add to my growing collection of inadequate sports bras without any suggestions! I'm a D cup and wear a regular bra with a sports bra on top in a failing attempt at keeping the girls under control! Any suggestions ladies? :) 3

    I personally love this one. I can't believe you wear two bras right now! I hope this works for you too:

    Being a small-breasted woman, I've never really had issues with any bras. But I have noticed Nike bras do seem to have a lot of support.

    I'm a 36DD and I like either Champion or Moving Comfort. I prefer Champion because I like their straps, but either one will hold them down!

    I'm a DD and love my Lululemon Ta Ta Tamer. I've tried many over the years and like this one best.

    I really liked my white Under Armour one until I found a cute purple Nike one at Marshall's. Both of mine are a large, but I find the Nike one holds the girls in tighter.

    Victoria's Secret VSX line. They have underwire which is awesome if you have a larger chest. I'm a C-cup so not huge, but big enough that I can't wear those flimsy things without underwire while running especially. It does make them slightly odd because they have a clasp and they're cross back straps (for more support) but you need a clasp to get the underwire over your chest because you have to pull it on like a shirt over your head kind of since it's cross back. So.. slightly awkward to wiggle into til you get used to it... BUT AWESOME - they also keep things fairly separated so no (or less) excessive cleavage issues at the gym if you're wearing a lower cut tank over top!

    The athleta store/catalog has some great bras for large ladies. I'm a 38DD and have some with underwire. I can jump for volleyball without them hitting me in the face!

    VS sport bras are surprisingly good! Although i'm just a tiny B-Cup they do a great job and are the most comfy thing I have ever owned. And they aren't THAT expensive.

    Thirding the Victoria's Secret VSX line. They're super supportive, dry really quickly after washing, and mine has straps that come unhooked so you can make it a halter or cross them in the back.

    Enell. I'm a 38DDD and my Enell keeps me from bouncing when I jog, yes, but even when I do burpees (the kind that include the jump at the end).

    I adore my Addidas ones but they've changed the sizing recently and I haven't bought one since.

    ^^ me too! $$ well spent!!! The girls stay in place when I run now (I'm a 36D).:happy: I also bought a Champion sports bra on a whim at Target and for weight training and low impact it's great for the price!

    I love Old Navy's compression sport bra. I have Ds as well and it keeps them tucked in tight. It doesn't hurt to run or bounce around in my aerobics class anymore. And they're pretty darn affordable.

    Berlei sports bras! I have found them to be amazing. Only buy them now ive tried others and they arnt as supportive or dont last as long. And i like the price!! Ive used them for years. Even when pregnant they hold very securely.

    Armor bra by underarmor. When I first started running I wore 2 bras as well (I was a 36dd at the time) my back started hurting so bad I thought I was going to have to quit running. Armor bra keeps things under control and my back was instantly better!! I've since bought two more as ive gone down to a 34dd. Totally worth the 75.00!!

    Since I've started wearing compression bras, I won't wear anything else anymore. I'm a D cup; no bounce whatsoever; very comfortable. It takes a bit of getting used to, if you've not worn compression bras before (difficult to put on & take off at first). I love Champions. http://www.amazon.com/Champion-Womens-Sweetheart-Compression-Bra/dp/B006O94BS8/ref=cts_ap_2_fbt ; they have a couple of different styles.

    Shock absorber is the only bra I'll have. Need proper support for DD and I hate even the smallest bounce.

    Moving Comfort, Juno or Maia great for larger sizes like D, DD or higher.

    I agree--I have 3 of them (for a good rotation) and they're great.

    I'm a D also. I wear one bra that I found at Old Navy for cheap and it works great. It holds me in and I don't bounce around too much. I also have an expensive sports bra by Wacoal that works great too, but it cost over $40 and I can't afford doing that often.

    Victoria's Secret VSX sport bras are the best ones I have come across. When I run the girls don't move a bit, and they are very comfortable. They are worth every penney you pay for them. I tried on about 5 different ones there until I found one that was perfect. The sales people are very helpful fitting you and know their bras. :)

    Moving comfort Fiona has been the best for me for high impact days.

    I'm also blessed and hate spending ridiculous amounts of money on bras that either don't fit right or don't provide the support I need.

    There was another thread recently on this very subject and someone suggested Glamorize bras on Amazon. I bought 2, they weren't terribly expensive and they provide the support I need and a huge bonus... they're actually cute and don't make you look like you have one big mammoboob.

    I am considering them, and I was wondering do they size correctly? Also, I have very sensitive skin, any rubbing rough seams break me out, are these a nice smooth construction? Thanks!

    So many women are wearing the wrong size. I wore a 34c for years and just accepted that my nips were going to pop out and my bra would be up between my shoulder blades, and my boobs would ache when I took my bra off. Victoria's Secret does a better job now that they cary more sizes, but when I was younger, they just said I was a 34c... Thats what they sold.

    years later I went to a Dillard's department sore where they sell many bra and got measured. I was a 32DD. Anyone who hasn't been measured by someone fairly unbiased should give it a try. It made a huge difference for me.

    Wacoal works well, I am a 38 g and it holds things in place and allows you to breath. They are pricey, but worth it.
