Though I luckily fall into a not terribly hard to find cup size (30DDD US), one of my biggest pet peeves after having my eyes opened to the woes of being unable to find large cup sizes is all of the celebration and excitement and exclamation points that follow "available up to a G cup!" like that's a big freakin' ... deal. I mean, I applaud these brands for doing what others still are not by even going that far along the alphabet, but it's that exclamation point that bugs me. The implication of that exclamation point irks me to no end, like G cups are so huge and rare. Which they're not. Maybe it bugs me because for some brands, going up to a G cup is a big deal, and I feel like it really shouldn't be, because you shouldn't have to embark on a quest to find the right bra size, you should be able to go into most stores and find what you need. But I guess I'm just a dreamer.
From my own personal experience, my biggest bra problem that just makes me want to yell at people is that different brands and countries get all weird right at my size. DDD, E, F... what am I?! I'm right at the start of where things start getting funky. Sometimes a DDD is an E, sometimes it's an F. And sometimes, trying to figure all of this out makes me want to cry. I wish there were just one system...

I find my mesh bras to be more comfortable and breezy than my cotton-lined or satiny ones. Look for Freya Leona, Eleanor, Lyla and Arabella.
Same thing here, mesh bras are great! Don't know what size you are at, but apart from the Freya bras Bravissimo Alana is also great. :)
It's a bit like clothes in function materials for training, cotton isn't always the best as it absorbs the sweat and takes time to dry. Synthetic material that don't cause any extra heat and dryes quickly are usually the best. :)
