Recommend a good sports bra for large chest?

Molly Jean

I'm a 32D and I feel like my girls are out of control when I run.  Anyone else been in that position before?  When I was younger I used to double-up on sports bra but that's really not ideal (or comfortable).

Can anyone recommend a decent sports bra for larger chests?  Preferably something I can get locally (Sports Authority, etc)?

Thanks!

Moving Comfort makes a couple good ones. I get them on Amazon (I also like Goddess sports bras)...but I think they sell MC at D!ck's.

Thanks, Penny.  We don't have a di!cks but I assume Scheels has a similar selection?

I get Under Armour spors bras at TJMaxx. I'm a 34D and they work well for me.

Oh!  TJMaxx!  Great idea, thank you.

I will second the moving comfort bras.  I used to wear the under armor bras, but they would frequently dig into my shoulders and I still felt floppy.

I like moving comfort too. I tried on several different styles of MC at D1cks and then ordered on amazon for almost $20/bra cheaper.

I also recently saw good prices for moving comfort bras on sierra trading post too.  It's also my favorite.

This. I love my Moving Comfort Maia bra. Love.  

ETA: I'm a 36DD and feel completely locked in.

Former 40DD here, now 36 D. I like the MC Juno best, and the CW-X Xtra Support bras. Good luck!

The Moving Comfort Maia was a GODSEND when I was a DD.  I loved that thing.

Based on several suggestions from this group, I bought a few of these in 32D

My review:  Good fit... good support, no bounce. Mostly comfortable... I don't like the velcro strap placement. It hits right at the collar bone and feels scratchy. Don't put them in the dryer. They last well if you machine wash in a delicate bag and hang to dry. I tried drying 2 of them on the delicate/low heat cycle of my dryer. It messed up the elastic band. If you don't dry them, they should last a long time.

I really love these, I'm a 34DD and nothing I was trying really held the girls nough til I came across these, plus they are a pretty decent price, if you have an outlet near you, I usually find them for even cheaper!

I'm a 34DD and I swear by the Enell bra, it is a MIRACLE.  The girls seriously DO NOT MOVE when I'm running in that thing, there is nothing else like it.

My two essential pieces of running gear are good shoes and that bra.

Ditto all of this. I always joke that my Enell is like a Medevil torture device to put on, but for realz, the girls do not move at all.

Cw-X Xtra support. racer back style.  I've found it locally, but in running stores.

 

I've also heard good things about the under armor sports bras for the busty and I've seen those at the sports authority.

I'm a 36D and another huge Moving Comfort fan.  I recently bought both the Fiona and Luna directly on Moving Comfort's website.  I'm typically a Maia fan but the other two models were on sale so I figured I'd give them a try.

The CW-X one has saved me so many times.  I'm talking 2+ hours of running at times.  Love that thing, and it does hold up longer than the recommended 3 months or so.

I tried Enell a few years ago and felt too confined. I've found that I like the Wacoal underwire sports bra much better (I got it at Nordstrom's, but Macy's and Amazon also have it). I'm a 36G. I never tried Moving Comfort since my size is so large.

I agree. There is ZERO movement in an Enell bra!

The Nike high impact styles are the only ones I'll buy; expensive but worth it.

finally!  a cw-x buddy!  this board is all about the MC with no love for the CW-X. those suckers changed my life. mine have gotten me through 2 marathons and 8 halfs.  I'm totally and completely screwed if they stop making them.

Although I do not know first hand, I have heard great things about Moving Comfort bras.  You can get them at www.runningwarehouse.com.  If its a liquidation bra, use FB15D for an extra 15% off or skinnyd for regular priced items. 

I may need to invest in a couple good larger bras.  Right now, I am squeezing my big pregnant girls into my pre-pregnancy C9 target bras.

While I don't have personal experience, all of my friends at my crossfit box with large chests use the TaTa Tamer from lululemon. I don't know if you have one locally, but if not they can be ordered online.

I'm an old, droopy 34DD and I like the ones with some kind of underwire plus compression.  My much younger DD cup sister uses one of the UA zip front compression bras.  I tried one and hated it!  I have some compression sports tanks with shelf bras and I don't have any bounce with those over a sports bra.  Title 9 sports has a huge selection and all of the bras are rated by use, compression/support, etc.  I haven't ordered one from them but I do like to check their site for ideas.
