Shock AbsorberChampion Classic Support Bra

Quite good fit. First impression was that the straps are too short but I was wrong. Quite firm hold for a larger size (40D). Very comfortable for workouts.

A good all round bra. I have used this for running (before it was stated not suitable for running). It held everything in place very well, hardly any movement (I have small chest size). I have three of these bras, and they have lasted me for years. I also wear then during the day as well and not just for sport.Very important to get exactly the right size, for maximum benefit.Now need to get some new bras for running, as mine are worn out, so I am moving onto the 'Run' design.Bra gives slightly unusual 'rugby ball effect.' It looks like you have two rugby balls stuffed up your t-shirt. Also you can see nipples, if worn under very tight t-shirts or jumpers.Not the most attractive bra for someone else to see you in, especially the white version, it looks like a granny bra!! But the black is OK.What I don't like about this bra, is that it separates the breasts. I have only small breasts, so I notice that the bra moves the nipples away (to the left and right respectively) from where my nipples started to grow and where they would be if my breasts could support themselves totally naturally.As we age breasts fall down the chest wall and to the left and right respectively. Bras need to not just hold the breasts up but together as well!!Like wise, when we run, the breast moves from left to right (and stretches in this direction too) as well as up and down.I don't notice any side-ward movement of the breast in this bra when I run, but the bra does not hold the breasts close together enough for my liking. Also I feel that as a consequence it causes slightly too much breast tissue to be felt under arms.Having tried the 'run bra' (get the tightest you can fit if in doubt, as supposed to be tight fitting), I much prefer that. The run bra securely holds breasts up and together, as a racer back, the back takes the weight of the breasts, not the shoulders. Also it looks fashionable (sexy) as well.

I bought this (in black) for the gym and, on my first chance of wearing it, it performed perfectly.It's not as unattractive as some sports bras can be and was easy to put on. I choose the classic bra because I wanted a bra that didn't have the hassles I've seen other people get into pulling them over their heads. Sometimes they look like they're contortionists when they struggle to get into or out of their bras. And this one was really simple to get on and off.I tend to do a bit of everything - some stretching, some jogging on the treadmill, some spinning, weights and rowing etc. I am a 38C and this bra holds everything in place while also making sure your breasts don't become unsightly solid mono-bumps.There was hardly any movement and the bra itself never felt too tight.And, although it says this bra is for support level 3 and thus not meant to be for running, it was fine for short bursts on the treadmill. If you're doing a lot more running, I'd advise getting a bra with more support.

I have bought this brand before this one wasn’t as good a fit

Bought this for work (I work outdoors). Fits nice, cup size accurate, comfortable to wear all day in a physical job. Not sure you could jog in it mind, but I don't run much so couldn't say for sure.Price good. Has survived been washed many times - i.e. it's not frayed at the seams or come apart or lost its colour. Would buy another. More colour variations other than white would be nice.

Good price for the product as this brand is very popular! Good for those with a bigger bust.

recommended a sports bra by my pharmacy. so tried it.amazon were the only company I found that did this bra inmy size (42C).pharmacy was correct bra stopped under bust sweat plusfitted well and held bust in place rather than the usual shaking.all in all an excellent buy so much so I bought a second Shock Absorber Max Sports Bra Top White  one

I would say its sizing is snug, compared to others in this size, but it has quality stitching and supportive cups, with comfortable shoulder straps. I would have welcomed not having to wear it on the last fastening in the back, but perhaps it will soften and loosen after a wash or two. It would have gained 5 stars had it been a bit cheaper.
