I've heard people comparing it to a bulletproof vest, but I must say you will NOT bounce- at all!

Moving Comfort Fiona bra from amazon also provides great support (though at 30D-DD I do still bounce a bit), & it's a lot prettier & more flattering. I will actually wear this one when in public.

I also use the Fiona bra pretty exclusively. I get pretty painful fibrocystic breasts during my cycle and am still able to jump around and run in the Fiona bra. But the trick for me was to size down. I am a 34DD in my regular bras, but I use the Fiona size 34 D and use the handy adjustable velcro straps on it to make it as tight as possible.

Also, they come in some pretty colors and I wash them on delicate cycle and they have lasted for many years.

CWX makes a great sports bra. I love their ultra support:

I am 36D or DD depending on the bra. I have had a few on the bras mentioned:

Moving Comfort Fiona - So far this is my favorite. It is supportive, but not as much as the Enell. It is easy to get on and off. I have found good deals on it at Sierra Trading Post. The fabric is comfortable.

CW-X - I don't know if they still have the model I had. It was really supportive, but not binding. The problem is that it didn't full open in back so that I had to pull it over my head. I would be interested in trying the ones that fully open in back.

Enell - I just took long to put on. It was really supportive, but I found it binding. It's ugly and is even unflattering under clothes. However, if your goal is non-moving breasts, this is your bra.

Question

Just poking in here to ask if anyone has any suggestions for quality high impact activity (think bounce, rebounder, gymnastics etc.) bras for a smaller chest (32 B), although barely a B in the cheap branded bras. If it's racer back, then I'd love that too!!

Thanks!!

Have you taken a look at the Brooks Juno?


If you're okay with a S/M/L/XL type sizing situation and want something cheap:

The Marika Nalani here on Yoga Outlet is certainly cheap, but I liked it enough to buy several. I like the lack of racerback styling, I don't much care for it.

The Marilka Kelly they have is racerback, and even cheaper, the orange of the bra is less eye searing than the photos appear on my monitor, but probably not for the timid.

This is a timely thread because I've been looking for a good sports bra for soccer and frisbee. I hate the racerback! I find it very uncomfortable so the Nalani looks good. I'm a 36B, so I guess I'll try a medium. Thanks for the tip!
