I am starting to LOVE to run but have an issue finding a good support bra any suggestions? Everywhere I go I see XL or XXL is there a place to get one sized??

Thanks and feel free to invite me as a friend I am a newbie :-)

    Freya underwired are the best, nothing else comes even close. I get them from www.bravissimo.com

    I'm afraid I'm not much help here as I don't have much to hold.. I can easily get away with running on the treadmill in a regular bra (had to a time or two in a pinch). But interested to see the suggestions as some of the sports bras I have are not comfortable at all!

    I'd like the answer to this as well. :)

    If you can find a champion outlet store (hanes, bali, champion, jogbra - all the same parent company), they will usually help you fit for one and the prices there will be relatively cheaper than retail.

    I wear a regular bra under my wal-mart bought sports bra for my sports bra doesn't support as much as I want it to. It works. :D

    Enell honey...Enell. If you go to a specialty running shoe store (i.e. Fleet Feet or somewhere like that) they can definitely help you with sizing.

    being larger on top, I generally have to wear two sports bras to be comfortable. Little movement when running that way.

    I just purchased a few VERY supportive bras from Lady Grace.

    Yes, I'm top heavy also.

    I used to wear 2 bra's to work out in, but bought a Champion (someone on this thread already mentioned) and now I can jog with only 1 on!

    I can't say that it's the most comfortable, but I wouldn't call any bra comfy. I prefer nothing.

    Duh, sorry about that last TMI

    I get the Moving Comfort (Fiona Style) from Amazon.com. They are great support and keep everything under control during any type of activity (running, EA sports, elliptical, walking, everything!). They are a little expensive compared to Target or Walmart (about $35 after shipping) but they are worth EVERY penny. Moving Comfort does have other styles but the Fiona is what I have and would recommend.

    Victoria's secret actually has great sports bras in all different levels of support. They're a little pricey so I usually wait for the coupons. If you get a good store, the gals in the store will be able to help you find one that'll work for you and you can try it on - bonus!

    I also like the Champion stuff at target. I usually wear a sports bra and a bra-top tank that's made of that sweat wicking material because I hate the feeling of a sweaty tshirt on my skin. Holds the gals in (and also the tummy, hehe) just great!

    I found the underwire Champions to work. I get them at Sports Authority and they do come in real bra sizes. I usually get something a little smaller than my normal bra size to squish them in even more. I can't wear those stretchy things you see at Target, they don't support anything! I tried on the Enell at Fleet Feet and they are just too darn ugly! I like to wear tank tops in the summer and there's so much fabric on the Enell that it shows everywhere.

    I have done my fair share of trying to find a bra that will hold up my 36D breast while running and not have a uniboob...so here are my favorites.

    Champion Sports Bra No Poke underwire/convertible model #1695
    Champion Powerback Wirefree model#1693

    These two are super comfy and it really supports the twins. :tongue:
