Finding the bra still very firm to wear. Had purchased shock absorber size 14 F in store, in July ‘22 when my old 12 F band was tight. No 14 GG available at time so when I ordered on line I purchased 14 GG as was suggested. I think I may be in between sizes but hoping for the new 14GG to give a bit with time. Meanwhile I find my 14H much more comfortable especially if it is a hot day. Don’t know if new management ie Champion shock absorber has anything to do with the tightness of fit.Would not buy online again as a result of this...prefer to try on at store which is a pity as I live at Ballarat and your nearest outlet is over an hours drive.

I’ve been searching for a sports bra similar to a discontinued Bravissimo style that I have almost completely worn out. Wireless, enough coverage and hold on top, and strong enough for a workout class with lots of jumping. This bra is close, but I wish the construction was softer. Some of the sewn spots and the plastic pieces scratch, mostly on the back. I’m hoping they soften with wear.I’m currently a 32h in Elomi bras, and had to go up to a 34h in this bra, and I even wear it with an extender for another 1/2” of room. I’ve worn it a handful of times so far and the extender will probably stay on few more wears until the bra relaxes and stretches out just a smidge more.

Most supportive and comfortable minimising sports bra for large bust.Have bought many. Grest for every day wear too, you don't feel like you are wearing a bra like with underwired bras. No digging, rubbing or sore shoulders.I also use a bra fastener-extender for non-sports activities/day wear when you don't need the tighter, stronger hold.Great bra, washes well. Looks good on.

As a bigger chested person, I have been searching for sports bras for many years and they never meet my needs. This is the only one that has ever done the job properly. I was put off by the price, but eventually bit the bullet and regret not doing so sooner. I can finally run without being in pain from improper support. Absolute game changer. It does slightly cut into my collar bone on my right side, but honestly that is a price I am willing to pay. I got a few different sizes, and the one that worked best for me was going up a band size and down a cup size.
Disappointing. The band below the breast is not fixed, I mean, it goes like a snake which does not provide the feeling of comfort or proper fastening. Additionally, the clothing inside the bra is not properly sewed amd moves. And what is worse, at least in my case, it does not cover the 78% of the protection to bounces, the boobs move much more than expectef and promised. So it is the last time I buy this brand.
This is without a doubt the best sports bra I have owned. I have large breasts and avoided high impact gym classes as I would need to wear a sports bra and 2 x crop tops for support.Now I only need this shock absorber. It has given me so much more confidence at the gym.For the big breasted women, do yourself a favour and get this bra! You won’t be disappointed. I now have 3 and it has been worth every dollar!
I love the shape that this bra gives me. It is extremely minimising with its compression style. Most importantly, it is firm and supportive, in fact THE most supportive sports bra I have ever had to this day!It doesn't have a racer back option, which is a shame, but I can deal with the compromise.What I love most about this bra is that there is no extra bulk or padding. THANK YOU! I loved the Panache Sports Bra and all its colour ways, but hated the extra padding and bulk!Also, I should mention, having no underwire is fantastic. I never thought it would work, but read plenty of reviews of other big booby woman testifying it would. It really works, and feels amazing! So comfortable and supportive (I can't say this enough).I do think however something has slightly ... MoreI love the shape that this bra gives me.

So comfortable and supportive (I can't say this enough).I do think however something has slightly changed in its design quality, when it switched over to Champion though. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it feels like corners are being cut and something has lessened in the quality. Not sure what exactly!Nonetheless, it still does the job as a sports bra, and does its job very well! I love it! It is my ONE and only sports bra.PS. I wish there were more colours available!
I purchased this to replace another shock absorber bra that id 9wnee for 5 years..I had been putting off replacing my old shock absorber bra, mainly due to the price..when I saw that sport direct were selling the exact sports bra for less than half RRP I jumped on the chance to replace and actually purchased 3. The best ever sports bra at the beer ever price! Delighted with my purchase and very pleased with the price. Remember that you will need to go up a band wise! Mk y new wise is 32Ddz and ai purchases a 34Ss. Perfect? Thanks
Having tried on two bras in store and been advised each time to order a slightly different size online, and neither bra fitting properly, I decided I’d try and get one in store that definitely fit me and did the job I needed to..Sadly the member of staff helping me was (unlike their previous colleagues) not in a very patient mood and rushed me through the process.They assured me the bra fit fine - it doesn’t, that it looks ok - it doesn’t, and that it would be supportive - it isn’t.I felt pressured into taking the bra, and left the store nearly in tears. I hate the bra - it looks ugly on, it’s too loose and not supportive at all.I feel like I’ve wasted my money, and now need to look elsewhere for the right bra.
I’ve worn these bras for years as an everyday bra. As a woman with a big bust (38G) and who previously suffered breast pain caused by an infection in my breast tissue I need something that gives zero movement. I discovered these during recovery and have worn them since. They give complete comfort and control with no bulges or underwire discomfort. Worth every penny!
