During my journey to find a bra that fits, I also decided to find a sports bra that fits. I decided to compare the top 3 companies for sports bras recommended on r/ABraThatFits: Panache, Freya, and Shock Absorber. My main goal was to find a sports bra suitable for running. For reference, I'm projected, FOB, center full, narrow roots, petite (4'11"), and normal bra size UK 28F.

I love the fit and shape of this bra! I found the band and cups very true to size. I was worried the lack of underwire would mean the bra wouldn't give my breasts any shape, but the cups are molded and provided a very nice uplifting shape! The wireless bra is more comfortable and preferable to me compared to the underwire Panache sports bra which put more pressure on my ribs.

I tested it by running in Texas 90F heat, and it wicked away sweat very well. I actually ran my fastest time, since I didn't have to stifle my movements to keep my boobs from bouncing like I was doing previously. Though I did have veeery slight movement in my slightly smaller breast. Regardless, this is way better than the compression sports bras I used previously, and I ended up purchasing a second one for running.

I've posted links to my reviews of the other sports bras below for easier reference:

  The panache sports bras are awesome!! The only thing that holds me down better is the knix catalyst.
