Effective bounce reduction, very comfortable when on.

Reviewed in Australia on 1 January 2019

Great fit (a tiny bit tight around chest but cup size is accurate), and very effective in reducing bounce when jogging. Love these colours too. I find it tricky to do up the top back part but will probably get used to it.

I'm glad I didn't listen to them

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 November 2016

Size: 32CColour: WhiteVerified Purchase

I've read loads of reviews saying to go up a back size ect. I'm glad I didn't listen to them. I was measured at marks and Spencer's when I was 13 and I was a 32c. I'm now 31 so I thought just in case my size had changed ( it didn't appear so ) I would get measured again. I got measured again and I'm still a 32c howevever in Victoria secrets I am 32dd two other places said 32c ( so I assume Victoria secret cup sizes are smaller ) Anyhow they all agreed on the 32 back. I brought this bra and did I totally have difficulty getting it on. Once you figure this out its something you don't forget. The bra fit me perfectly. It's amazing, I'd given up on gym in teenage years as all the movement with my breasts just felt uncomfortable. Prior to this I loved sports I was on all the trans hockey rugby ect. I really wish somebody had told me of these bras sooner. They are amazing, I actually want to get another one to sleep in they are really comfortable. My chest doesn't feel heavy. I would recommend these for all women even if just for sleep ! Maybe some women are having issues with the sizeing because they are currently wearing the wrong size ? I don't know but for me, this bra is a keeper.

Tiny but excellent if you go up a band size, down a cup size.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 January 2019

Verified Purchase

This is fantastic. I bought my last shock absorber bra 20 years ago in the days of the Anna kournicova ads and it lasted all that time. Admittedly, some of those years it stayed in the draw. But it lasted really well. This bra is great. I bought my usual size initially and returned it for one size up on band, one size down on cup, I.e. the cup size is accurate but the band is tiny. 70% say fits as expected? I think it depends on whether you are wearing a bra size you fitted yourself and like a loose band in which case buy that size - it will be tight tho - or whether you have gone to John Lewis and they have given you the right size already - in which case definitely buy a bigger band size. Really comfortable to run in and I can just about breathe in the bigger size. Another thing to mention is that I am really tall and it fits. You need to adjust the length of the bra on the back of it. And there is no bouncing anywhere 🤣

32C not True to sizing...waaay too small.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 July 2020

Size: 32CColour: BlackVerified Purchase

I don't usually write reviews, but regarding this product in terms of sizing, the item sizing seems totally off the mark! Ordered 32C and I would say sizing was more like a 28B! Way way too small! The band does not even fit across the chest, impossible for clasp to meet. The cup size is way too small and narrow. My boobs were literally squished in all over the place and spilling out at the sides and top. Not enough fabric to protect and cup the whole breadth of the breast. Not comfortable or fit for purpose. I have always used 'shock absorbers' for running and they have always been be brilliant. Support in the right places, good contact, comfortable no bounce and pain free especially near monthly cycle where Betty Boo feels a little on the sore and tender side. Description advises order your regular normal size which I did and it's fair to say 'shock absorber' sizing is way off the mark. Very disappointed. I usually buy bras from M&S, JL and my usual 32c no matter where I buy have always fit. I hope the images supplied will help with your decision about purchasing this product. I did read reviews before purchasing and positive seemed to out weigh the negatives. Maybe, I got a faulty garment that slipped through quality control? It was promptly returned!

Für mich der Beste unter den Sport-BHs

Reviewed in Germany on 17 January 2018

Size: 38DDColour: Black/SilverVerified Purchase

Bisher habe ich Sport-BHs immer im Fachhandel gekauft, gerade weil ich große Brüste habe und davon ausgegangen bin, dort die beste Auswahl und Beratung zu bekommen. Und ich habe schon viele davon ausprobiert. Dann stieß ich beim Stöbern nach Sport-Bekleidung hier im Netz auf diesen BH und die vielen positiven Bewertungen und dachte, ich probiere es mal aus. Das Ergebnis: Dies ist der beste Sport-BH, den ich je hatte, und zwar mit Abstand!

Verunsichert hatten mich die widersprüchlichen Aussagen zu Größe und Passform. Nach langen Überlegungen habe ich mich für die Größe entschieden, die ich sonst auch trage, das ist 85 E. Die Unterbrustweite ist erstmal eng, aber weiter sitzt der vor wenigen Wochen im Fachhandel gekaufte Sport-BH auch nicht, und sie geben ja alle noch etwas nach. Die Körbchengröße ist bei mir genau richtig, die Brüste werden voll umschlossen und gut komprimiert.

Ein bisschen Übung braucht man, um mit dem Schließmechanismus klar zu kommen, aber wenn man es einmal raus hat, geht es eigentlich ganz leicht. Der Sitz dieses BHs ist einfach perfekt, nichts wackelt, drückt, scheuert oder rutscht, selbst beim Laufen nicht! Durch die zwei Verschlüsse entsteht Zug in verschiedenen Richtungen mit einem hervorragenden Halt, den ich so noch bei keinem anderen BH hatte (weshalb ich bisher beim Laufen zum Beispiel über dem Sport-BH immer noch ein Sport-Bustier trug - das ist jetzt überflüssig geworden).

Das alles noch dazu zu einem aus meiner Sicht sehr günstigen Preis, ich habe für Sport-BHs sonst deutlich mehr ausgeben müssen. Ich bin total begeistert, gebe sehr gern die volle Punktzahl und bestelle gleich noch einen.

Terrible

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 January 2021

Size: 34DDColour: BlackVerified Purchase

1.) Sizing is way off. As you can see, it is barely across my back. I ordered the correct size for me, 34 DD. I double checked my own measurements initially in case I'd changed sizes (I hadn't), and then I measured the product itself. The band is just under 25inches, with next to no stretch. This is roughly 4 inches wider than my 2 year olds chest, and would actually be one of the smallest UK band sizes.
2.) Even if it had fit, there's several issues with the cups themselves. They're far too large. While pregnant, I had to wear an F cup. I would say the cups on this sports bra were a similar size to the cups on my maternity bra. The centre 'V' thats supposed to sit snug to your chest (note, I am a runner, hence why I even bought this product) is nothing more than a sewn on decorative line, meaning that this isn't actually a shock absorbing sports bra as it doesn't sit against your chest. If you were to run using this, I expect it wouldn't support your movement at all, and for a chesty women like me I 100% need that support.

All in all, I've had significantly cheaper sports bras that offer far better support than this one. And for beginners looking for start up equipment, I can imagine that having the sizing be this far off could be really demoralising.
