Shock Absorber Women's Ultimate Run Bra

I love running and exercising, and a good sports bra is one of the most important things for a woman to have, especially if she is large on top. It is VERY challenging to find one that keeps "my girls" from bouncing around. I've tried many different sports bras, and this one is hands-down the best - it is so effective that I have purchased 7 of them! Here are some of the points I considered when purchasing the bra:PROS:It almost eliminates bouncing. You will still move a little bit but not uncomfortably so.It fits true to size, though it's a bit snug. (I think this is why it works so well)The clip at the back makes it possible to wear any kind of shirt, including racerback tank tops.I think it pushes my chest up a little and makes me look a bit "perkier." The "uniboob" effect is minimal.The blue color is very pretty.If you wear a heart rate monitor to train, this bra has no under wire so you don't have to worry about interference.CONS:The stitching is heavy duty so if you wear a tighter t-shirt or tank top you will be able to see the stitches through the shirt. It isn't too noticeable, but it is there.The clip on the back takes some practice. It is easy for me to clip now but the first few attempts were tricky! If you have shoulder issues you may need to have a friend clip it.On runs longer than 9 miles the shoulder straps cut into my shoulders. I attribute this to the bra's superb functioning (it means it's holding me up) so I just wear a band-aid under the shoulder straps on long runs. If you run 5 miles or less you won't have a problem with this.For some reason the white bra isn't as effective as the black and blue ones.

As a woman with a large cup size, but small band size, finding a sports bra that is worth a dam is like finding a unicorn. I've seen rave reviews across the web claiming that this bra is the answer. I'd say it was almost right. Firstly, I ordered my true size which is a 34G and there was definite spillage (through herroom.com's massive selection and fantastic return policy I now finally know the right size for me, but this bra was cheaper here on Amazon.com). They didn't offer a higher cup size so I went up another band size to the 36G. I don't quite have the same separation as the model shown (so a swipe of deodorant though the cleavage is helpful) but I definitely did NOT have uni-boob! I was so excited to show my sister who’s in a similar situation (thanks genes) and she couldn’t believe I was even wearing a sports bra. Secondly, I love the material as it's soft and smooth. Thirdly, there is no underwire in this model which seemed really counter-intuitive to me because in regular bras I need the wire. I found the Shock Absorber to have enough separation and lift despite not having the wire. Getting it on was a little challenging, but nothing a few practice tries won’t resolve. I've recently started rock climbing and it definitely helped keep the girls out of my way while I was going up the wall. I've also been able to do jumping jacks for the first time without injury. I used to subscribe to the class of large-chested women who wore a regular bra with 2 sports bras over it and that did not give me the same level of control as this bra did and this bra allowed me to breathe a little easier than that subpar solution. So in sum, it does run small, but it's worth going up in band or cup sizes to get the right fit. Also, at the time I ordered this one, I ordered the Glamorise Women's Adjustable Bounce Control Sports Bra which I think has more control, less comfort, but is cheaper. See my review there if interested. Finally, unfortunately because of the design of the "harness" as I like to refer to this one, it does create a noticeable amount of back bulge in the opening between the top and bottom clasps. Not noticeable with a t-shirt on but if you intended to wear it alone this is your heads up about that situation.

So, I have gone on the long, arduous quest most active women undertake: finding a sports bra that is (1) comfortable, (2) supportive, (3) doesn't chafe you, and (4) allows for breathability. I can honestly say I've tried almost all bras on the market (besides Enell) and this is the only one I'm keeping. Here's why:When I first received this bra in the mail, it looked a lot like UA Moxie Sports bra and I was quite disheartened (see my review of that bra for why). I was overjoyed when I tried it on and realized that it is made up of two thin layers of fabric which, surprisingly, give support together. The thinness allows for breathability, which is hard to come by in supportive bras in D sizes. I am sized at Victoria's Secret as a 34D, but I fit in a 32D here perfectly. I'm not sure why some people are complaining that it's too small; I suggest you get yourself resized. Also, this bra is NOT difficult to put on: you keep the between-the-shoulders thing together, pull it over your heat, and clip the underbust. If you need to re-adjust the shoulder straps, take it off and adjust them. This isn't rocket science, people.The bra seems to be nicely padded in the straps and underbust, without being overly cushy. I also have yet to have problems with chafing (which is my prominent problem with bras that actually support). The straps are also adjustable in a way that doesn't allow the bra to become loose. And this bra is incredibly light and breathable; this is what gives it a huge leg up above UA's new, overly publicized 'Armour Bra'.There are, however some drawbacks to this bra: it does not stop all bounce. It does stop more bounce than every other bra I've tried on though. I firmly believe this bra could benefit from underwire and better encapsulation.All in all: this is a very good bra, but I hope there is better out there. This'll be good enough for now though.Also: I wouldn't recommend this bra for a cup size much higher than a D. I don't think the bra would be supportive enough.

very satisfied

c'est mon 4ème modèle. Très confortable, ventilé. Nombeux points d'attaches, poitrine bien soutenue sans être comprimée (je fais du 90/A). Je recommande vivement. J'avais Odlo auparavant (plus léger/plus ventilé) mais moins de soutien par rapport à ce modèle

Ich habe lange nach einem guten Sport-BH gesucht, der zum einen passt und zum anderen auch wirklich bei intensiveren Trainings (joggen, springen etc.) hält, was er verspricht. Leider waren hier die meisten BHs in irgendeinem Bereich eine Niete.Der Shock Absorber BH ist für mich bisher der beste den ich hatte, er sitzt gut (und auch in meiner etwas ungewöhnlicheren Größe) und hält alles an Ort und Stelle. Auch beim Seilspringen oder ähnlichem sonst sehr Gewebe-beanspruchenden Training gibt es keine Schmerzen. Gleichzeitig schnürt er trotzdem nicht ein.Geschlossen wird er durch 2 getrennte Verschlüsse im Rücken, was dazu führt, dass er auch nicht mal eben verrutscht.Kurz und gut: Ich bin sehr zufrieden und werde auch bei der Marke bleiben, keine Lust mehr auf unangenehme weitere Experimente!

Nachdem ich erst vor kurzem wieder mit dem Sport begonnen habe und feststellte, dass meine Ausstattung noch zu wünschen übrig lässt, habe ich mich entschieden, mir einen BH für intensiveres Fitnesstraining zu kaufen.Normalerweise bin ich hier Anhängerin bestimmter Marken, aber deren Auswahl bzw. Bewertungen ließen zu wünschen übrig, daher habe ich mich für den Shock Absorber Damen Sport-BH entschieden. Aufgrund der Bewertungen war ich zunächst unsicher, welche Größe ich bestellen sollte, gerade auch, weil dies mein erster BH dieser Art war. Ich habe mich dann für meine reguläre Größe entschieden und bestellt. Da ich nicht wusste, was mich erwarten würde, war ich zunächst skeptisch.Wie immer lieferte Amazon unkompliziert und schnell, auch die Bestellung in den Amazon Locker hat gut geklappt.Beim Auspacken hatte ich einen sehr positiven ersten Eindruck. Alle Nähte gut und sauber vernäht, das Produkt roch nicht unangenehm und fühlte sich beim Anfassen gut an - sehr feiner Stoff. Das Anprobieren war zu Beginn eine kleine Herausforderung, da der Verschluss, der den BH in die Ringer-Form bringt, etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig beim Verschließen ist (nach mehrmaligem Anziehen wird frau aber geübter.).Ungewohnt war der BH auch bei der ersten Anprobe, aber nur deshalb, weil ich, wie erwähnt, zum ersten Mal solch ein Modell ausgewählt habe.Er saß aber sehr gut, drückte nicht, spannte nicht und gab an allen wichtigen Stellen einen guten Halt.Sofort ging er in die Waschmaschine (Feinwäsche). Sehr positiv, dass das möglich ist, viele BHs sind ja oft Handwäsche, das mag ich gar nicht.Das erste Lauftraining (Jogging) mit diesem BH war großartig, alles sitzt an der richtigen Stelle, nichts schmerzt, nichts wackelt - einfach super. Ich nutze ihn nicht nur zum Jogging, sondern auch für längere Nordic Walking Strecken und fürs CrossFit. Inzwischen habe ich ihn schon mehrmals getragen und freue mich regelmäßig auf die Trainingseinheiten.Der Preis ist für dieses Produkt sehr gut/angemessen, in den Sportläden muss man häufig für andere Modelle mehr bezahlen. Aber warum?Ich würde dieses Produkt weiterempfehlen und werde mir zum Wechseln vermutlich auch noch ein weiteres Exemplar bestellen.

Ya es el segundo que tengo, pero como se había borrado la talla que lleva impresa en el interior del sujetador, haciendo caso de las opiniones leídas me acerqué a una tienda física a probármelo y asegurarme con la talla. En mi caso coincide con la que llevo habitualmente. Es el mejor sujetador que he tenido, perfecto para correr, sujeta el pecho pero sin oprimir ni molestar.Sin duda lo recomiendo.
