So long as what you're wearing meets your needs, I'm not sure I see the need for anything else.

These years I only wear a 'real' bra when I'm wearing a top that might reveal straps or something.

If you end up utilizing Jockey's Volumetric Fit System for sizing, please post about it. I was intrigued by it when I watched their infomercial earlier in 2014.

Not sure if it's something offered by the outlet.

Yes, supposedly Woolite is really damaging to elastic and wears it out quickly. My SIL even had some members of the San Diego Chargers who would come buy Forever New from her on a regular basis to clean their uniforms. I guess it's really gentle and helps keep things looking great!

I really like the bras from Free People and for sports bras my favorite is Lululemon Lift and Separate. I do not like the bulky feeling of padding in bras just a thin liner at most. Nordstrom does complimentary fittings as an option to consider as well.

I love Warner's Daisy Bra. Here it is on Amazon.

It's very comfy & supportive. Has nice soft straps.

I posted about this same bra upthread - it's available at Kmart, and I agree, it's great!

Just bumping this up to mention that I found some Hanes Cozy Bra style G196 for $8.99 each at Target. That's a regular price, not a sale. They seem to be out of stock online in a lot of colors, but our store had a good assortment of sizes and colors.

Bought four in the size recommended by the chart on the back.

They seem an awful lot like the much more expensive Ah Bra, Genie Bra, etc.
