Victoria's secret is eliminating their sports bra line.. so disappointing!! I went to one location last week and they told me they didn't carry them anymore to try the other location. I went there this weekend and they told me they won't be carrying them any longer. I need a sports bra for my 36 DD's. Any suggestions?! Looking for the lowest prices and best support! Thanks everyone!!

    I didn't even know they carried sports bras. But I have the bounce problem so if anyone can recommend a good brand that would be great! lol

    I try to stick with the sport's companies, because I'm like you. I've had good luck with Nike, Starter, and Adidas. Maybe try a Scheel's?

    I would try the bra finder at Title Nine (www.titlenine.com). Great bras, a little pricey but I have yet to be disappointed. Really honest customer reviews too.

    I didn't know they carried sports bra's either. I'm 38 DD and I like under armour. If I'm doing jumpin jacks though, I wear a reg bra under any sports bra. Good luck!

    BUMP. I just wear 2 sports bras, a crappy cheap one, then an under amour one on top. Serious uniboob, and really digs into my skin.

    Don't even get me started on the evils of VS!

    I like the under armor high impact sports bras and the moving comfort line that academy sells..both are great for high impact (running, tennis, etc) and for larger chests (i'm a 34 DD). The UA one is about 55 dollars and the moving comfort one is about 30.

    I like to buy Everlast brand sports bras. They really eliminate the "bounce" effect. Also, I typically buy my sport bras a few sizes tight. It helps hold those girls in place...and if your losing weight, you can wear it for a little longer.

    What a bummer!!!! I LOVE VSs entire fitness line!!

    I would tell you to go to a Nike store next. They have a fantastic selection, that is if you live near a Nike store :-)

    Victoria's secret areTHE bra people...how could they quit carrying sports bras???

    These are 2 of my fav places to buy sports bras. I am a 34DD so that is fun to find! It is funny because I have wide shoulders. I like to say I have the shelf to carry these books ;-] lol I also find that if you are able to put a little money into buying the better ones they last longer and hold the girls steady.

    I LOVE my sports bra! I did tons of searching for the perfect, high support sports bra for a larger chest. I wear 38 DD/DDD and found the Champion Double Dry Seamless Full Support Underwire Bra to be my best friend! It holds everything in place, minimal minimal bouncing, and the underwire support that I need in a bra. I recommend them to everyone. It comes in a variety of colors and it looks like they've even on sale right now. I got mine at a Champion outlet.

    You took the words right out of my mouth - this is by far my favorite sports bra, and I have tried them all! I am a 38 DD, and have found nothing that works better. I got one at the outlet, then bought another online.

    No clue...but maybe you should try a sporting goods store that sells clothing. They tend to have clothing geared more towards athletes which might help with wanting better support.

    Mine is Under Armour & I got it for like $45 at ****'s and used a coupon so it was $35. It's double-layered and reversible so it holds me in really well! I'm a big C cup and usually most C sports bras won't hold me but this one is great!

    I need new sports bras too, but am so cheap! What I have been doing is wearing my current favs (Champion) under a work out shirt that has a shelf bra in it. Helps to hold my 36 DD's in place. I notice a HUGE difference when I don't wear a work out shirt.....can you say BOUNCE???

    Hey ladies -- I have to highly recommend the Kalyx brand of sports bras. First heard of them on the TV show 'Shark Tank' -- Read their 'about us' .. the lady that started the company knows what she's talking about and created great products.

    Here's for u DD girls: It's called the DD Divas sport bra:

    Actually they're doing a "test store" here in Ohio for a sports specific line of clothes/bras etc... I just got a new one from there today. They say their goal is to open 30 stores nationwide by the end of the year so keep an eye out! :D

    Serious uniboob, and really digs into my skin.

    I HATE HATE HATE Unitboobs - can anyone recommend a bra for the larger bust (F in my case), which still separates the boobs? or is that an impossibility for sports bras?

    I never knew that Victorias secret carried sports bras either! I really need to buy a sports bra though, and so these comments on here are helpful as to where I can look for one. I just need a really good one to wear when I am working out and the ones that I have always bought made my boobs bounce around or they didnt support me enough, so I am glad to hear that there are good sports bras out there they actually "do" their job!

    I also agree that it is stupid that Victorias Secret isnt carrying sports bras anymore. They are known for their bras, I think someone should petition it or something! :ohwell:

    VS is now carrying them again. I was just in the store yesterday and there is a huge display. I too was a huge fan of their sports bras and I'm so happy they are back. It says they will be available for online puchase in August.

    I was just in Victoria Secrets last week and asked if they had sports bras and the salesgirl told me they didn't carry sports bras anymore :noway:

    Maybe she didn't know they were coming back in ?? :huh:

    I heard Oprah once say that she wore TWO sports bras for the bounce problem!
