Bigger bust sports bra?

fussyonion

I'm a busty lady and have been trying to find a good sports bra for a while now.

I looked in M&S but they didn't have one in my size and none on their website.

I wonder if any of you could point me in the direction of a shop or website (who deliver to Ireland) that stocks DD+ sports bras?

They seem a bit expensive, and I'm currently trying to lose weight and realise that if I lose weight, the bra won't fit me after a while, but I suppose I need one to start with.

Any advice ladies?

I got a brilliant one by Panache in Clerys last year. It was pricey enough (~€50 I think) but a year on and it's held its shape perfectly. There's a little clip on the straps so it can be worn as a racer-back, as well as normally.
I find it really comfy to wear, and my G cup boobs don't budge in it at all!

I know Panache can be ordered online from Littlewoods, and I'm sure other department stores around Ireland would stock the brand too.

I would definitely recommend Shock Absorber DD+ range. They can be bought online from Debenhams.

I bought one of these yesterday and yeah, it's fab.
Thanks for the advice girls ☺

I used to order a brand called Coobie in from the states - they were cheap but pretty rigid, however, they were prone to a bit of shrinkage from washing over time so theyd end up too tight after a few months.

Then I moved onto Lonsdale ones from sports direct. Initially I thought they allowed too much bounce when running but it was more just the change from the rigid ones, and now I find them fine.

I intend to try out shock absorber next.

Seconding both Panache and Shock Absorber (particularly the S4490). I'm small band/big cup (30FF) and have both. I find Panache relatively true to size if not slightly large in the cup, and Shock Absorber to run small in the band (I wear a 32FF in that). If you run and are an F cup or smaller then the SA Run bra is very popular too.

I recommend Amazon if you're going to get them online. I've gotten Panache for £22 from them and SA for £15 if bought at the right time. Sales are on at the moment though so Debenhams etc are well worth a look.

I find M&S sports bras a bit crap - just not supportive enough and I've had some horrible chafing from them in the dim and distant past.

I recently got a Wacoal sports bra and its fantastic, I have used M&S and shock absorber + DD in the past but the Wacoal gives far better support and a much nicer shape.

I got mine in Arnotts.

I got a great one in Penneys of all places. D-F range and very pretty. Black with neon pink and leopard detailing. Hook and eye closure for maximum support and minimal ridey-uppiness! €7 and I picked it up in the workout-wear section on the ground floor of the O' Connell St branch, it's across from the ladies fitting rooms at the Abbey Street entrance.
