I’m between a 30 and 32 band right now, and my 34 band Shock Absorbers were feeling tight, so after a lot of searching (why is this brand so hard to find now?) I found this replacement. The 36 band was definitely the right decision. It is actually that tight! Which means if you’re a 26 band in an H cup or smaller in need of a sports bra, you should definitely check out their 30s.
The cup size is about right as 36DD is a distant sister size to the 30FF I’ve been wearing day to day. It’s a little roomy and I could probably do a 36D, but it was really hard to find that size for some reason. The small bit of extra space doesn’t compromise support, anyway.
I appreciate the the red and blue as opposed to the usual boring black.
Bought this for medium-high impact activities during pregnancy. I’ve been wearing mostly 30FF, but they’re starting to get tight in both the bands and cups. My UK size at the moment is probably between 32F and FF.
Knowing that this brand runs really tight in the band, I sized all the way up to 36, but that doesn’t seem to have been necessary in this model. 34DD might have been better as it’s a little wrinkly on top. I got good support from it still, though, and there’s room to grow into it now.
The cups have a kind of support sling on the inside. I don’t get much compression from this bra, which I prefer, but that could be because of the cups are slightly large.
Overall it does its job well and is comfortable. I’ll call it a success.
I received this sport's bra as a gift almost 10 years ago. It was already the wrong cup size as the store didn't carry my size. Nevertheless, this sport bra is top quality as my breast didn't bounce during high impact activities (running, zumba classes) & as it lasted 10 years with machine washing & air drying! I only discarded this bra as with times my cup size growed & I have quad-boob effect when wearing it!
This sport bra is a compressive style one so it isn't comfortable wearing to lounge around! But I bought the same bra in my size thanks to the Internet!
I've always felt that the shock absorbers are tiny!
Srsly, I tried a 30 and it was a 26 for sure.
I wonder if they use the +4 method.
