Sports bra?!?

[krysalyss]

What sports bras do you guys recommend? I have always used the berlei ones with the mesh like material and they have always been fine before for jogging and indoor soccer. Now that I have started playing outdoor soccer they are woefully inadequate and last week I actually had a patch of blood come through on my shirt from my nipple because of the damage done.
So until I get a new one I am going to wear breast pads (funny cos I never had to wear them when I was bf'ing). But what do you guys think? I am a 12C.

I have a Berlei... it is expensive but worth it I think. I have a material one but some of them do have the mesh cups why cause they would chafe me bad all the time. I am a 16D so found I had to go the more exxy brand to get the support for my size.

I love my Lorna Jane crop. The one I have is action backed and made for hight impact sports. It even has removable padding to accentuate your assets Really comfy too.

what sizes do those lorna jane ones go up to? do you know?

BnT have a great in-store-brand sports bra ... can't remember the name of it, but it's ace. And cheaper than Berlei.

I am a 12DD and my LJ crop is a Medium. It's called a 'Comfort sports Bra'. You can buy them online from their store.

*Hollo: Looks like they go to an L, which is an AU14.

Berlie - Definitely worth the price. I have 16DD & will not wear anything else for sport (horse riding especially!!). Specifically style: Y584T (the high performance one). It crosses over at the back (nothing worse when jumping your horse over jumps, or trying to pull up a bolting horse & your bar strap falls off your shoulder!!).

The colours vary for the season, but you can usually always get white & black. I have an awesome green/blue one.

I have one Bendon "Extreme Out Sports Bra", but I did have to get it replaced after the underwire started to really rub (after 2 wears!!) & was nearly popping through. I sent it back to Bendon & they sent me a new one, and then I had no problems. I can strongly recommend that for the amount we pay for bras, send them back to the manufacturer if there are any problems.

I have been known to wear two sports bras at once for the extra support. One soft one and them a good one over the top. Maybe give that a go with your Berlei?

I was recently fitted for one, the brand is 'Freya'. I've never heard of it before but it is a fantastic bra. I got a 10 GG It is super supportive. I wear it to the gym a few times a week and when I get home I don't want to take it off and put my feeding bras back on. I actually feel like I've got boobs again when I wear it

It was exxy, $98 I think but I'd happily pay that again. And it is just like a normal bra, no mesh, crossed over back etc etc which I actually preferred. I tried a few different brands on, Bendon, Berlei and another I can't think of and this was by far the most comfortable, supportive and best fit.
