ChampionWomen's Shock Absorber S5044 Ultimate Run Bra Sports Bra

I must first say that I have a love/hate relationship with Shock Absorber bras generally. I hate them because I don't find their "compression fit" very comfortable. I have decent sized boobs & they just squash everything into your body which I don't like. However I have to admit they work in terms of stopping boobs bouncing around so to that extent I am growing to love them.I really didn't like this bra when it arrived. As well as the usual "squash factor" it's 2nd fastening is a plastic clip affair like you would find on a swim suit located so high between the shoulder blades its almost impossible to fasten. ( and you can't front fasten and swivel) However I decided to try it out and I must say it does work well.As always with shock absorber the fit on back size is small so think about going up a size on that- cup size is fine though, it's supposed to fit tight, that is how it works.Regarding comfort I am in 2 minds- it's tight, you will notice when you put it on & it won't feel comfortable. But once you are wearing it and while running you just won't notice it. In short it is comfortable to run in which is pretty much the pointSo I am growing to love this bra, slowly, very slowly. I had to force myself to give this bra 5*s which I did because it's well made and very fit for purpose but it doesn't make my "heart sing" if you know what I mean!Hope that helps ladies

Size : 38ESports : Mixed genres of dance, running and gym workout After reading x-amount of reviews on this bra I was definitely unsure of my original intent to purchase however in the end I am 110% happy I decided to purchase this item.I currently use Triumph Tri-Action sports bra and decided it has seen better days when I stumbled across this Shock Absorber model.Material and Design : The item is well built with a double lining to absorb moisture and minimalise any discomfort during exercise. A lot of fuss has been made about straps becoming undone etc througout work out however I cannot see this being possible as I struggled to open the bra straps in order to change the length. Other reviews claim that you need to have out-of-the-ordinary arm flexibilty in order to even get the bra on in the first place but it is safe to say, these claims are over dramatic. The best way to put the item on is leaving the top hooks in and opening the back catches as if applying a standard U back bra. Those who often wear cross back straps will find this style of bra easy to wear.Sizing : This style is said to run small however I ordered my normal size and it fitted perfectly and comfortably. If you are nervous of sizing order one back size up as cups are claimed to run big but back size small but in my case this did not apply. (I usually purchase size 14 - 16 - 18 size tops depending on the brand obviously but just an fyi for rough information).Amazon Service : Item came within 3 days, well packaged as usual. This item is an absolute steal at just under 25£ considering it's RRP is 37£ + and above.I am happy that I purchased this bra and it feels totally comfortable and ensures I feel confident while wearing it. I would definitely advise anyone that is big chested like myself to at least give it a try. Hope this helped :)

This is my second shock absorber run bra and you really cant beat them for comfort and support. There are no internal seams so there is no chance of painful chaffing and the straps are sturdy and fully adjustable. You can't really tell from this picture but the bra fastens at the back like a normal bra and has a bikini style clip at the top. Be warned this clip is rather tricky to fasten at first and you do need to be flexible enough to reach over your head to below the nape of your neck. I am a size 34C and I find it is tight enough to keep me supported with very little movement but is not too tight. The adjustable straps work with a bar that hooks into the appropriate channel. It is worth knowing that with time and washing these fabric channels loosen off. I recently had an embarrassing experience when these bars slipped out and with no support I had to walk home. I had had the bra for about a year at this point, having washed it approximately once a week. I consider that for about twenty five quid, I've had good value for money and have just ordered my second which is working perfectly :)

Sizing is way off. Go bigger.

It is a very nice bra that offers full support. This is my fifth one, perfect for horse back riding and jogging.

This is the only bra I will wear for distance running. Great for larger chested women, particularly DD and up. No chafing and comfortable. Size up in the band size, runs a little small.

Definitely buy a size bigger. Otherwise it is a really great bra especially for someone with larger breasts who want the extra support for aerobic type exercise. I am not moving at all! lolOnly wish I had ordered a size larger.

Bästa sport bhn för jogging. Brösten sitter som fixerade. Man känner sig fri. Har köpt denna modell i flera år. Man kan dock inte köpa sina normala storlek. Kupan bör man beställa en storlek mindre än vanligt. Omkretsen kan man köpa en storlek större om man vill att den ska sitta bekvämt. Jag brukar ha 75 e normalt. I denna tar jag 80 d.
