Good bra
Really good looking sports bra with padding that gives a flattering shape. I'm a 32F and although this bra is very supportive, for high impact or very bouncy exercise (running/rebounding) I stick to the security of my Shock Absorber Ultimate Run bras - they're not as pretty but they reduce bounce to virtually nothing whereas I still have some movement when I wear this bra (I'd give this a 7/10 for reducing bounce wheareas the Ultimate Run gets a 9.5/10).

Really good bra, keeps everything where it should be.
I am a size 32D, this bra fits but is slightly tight. I would have sent it back and bought a larger size but I needed to wear it the next day. It is very well made and once you get used to the tightness it's good. I would recommend buying this product but don't leave it to the last minute just incase you need a different size!

Good support for gym/floorwork/bodyweight work. Not for running.
Nice and supportive - not as supportive as the Ultimate Run Bra and the Active Zipped Plunge so more for floor work, bodyweight work etc.Very happy with this because it does give you some shape so you can wear it under day clothes before heading to exercise - unlike the bras that, well, squidge everything into a monoboob in order to give the ultimate support.Will buy a second of these because they are comfortable, supportive and look good. Easy to wash (30 degrees) and even the foam cups dry quickly.

I got the 34 E and it fits perfect! It’s very supported and I used it in ...
This sports bra is gorgeous! I’m big busted but skinny. I got the 34 E and it fits perfect! It’s very supported and keeps them in check! I was really worried it wouldn’t be enough support, but it’s perfect! I love how many sizes they do! The price I find is very good as usually they are about £40 and up for big busted women. Even ones like Nike, Adidas etc are expensive. This is such good quality and my favourite sports bra I’ve ever owned. I have about 10, Nike ones included and this is the best.

Possibly the Best all round Shock Absorber Bra!
I am a big fan of Shock Absorber sports bras and I have loved the look of this bra ever since I first saw it - but I found it was difficult to find it in the larger sizes. Well I am very pleased to now be able to buy it in a size that actually fits!STYLE: It seems that a lot of sports bras that actually LOOK nice (good shape, cool colours etc) are only made for people with small chests!! Most of the bras for high impact sports in larger sizes offer varying amounts of functional bounce reduction but usually zero elements of style (and sometimes not that much on the comfort factor either!). They either flatten your chest and are so tight that you can't breathe, or they create a very weird shape that makes you feel like an alien when exercising. Not so with this bra!! The cut and shape are very stylish and flattering and it even has funky neon trim! The blue inner band both encapsulates the chest for support and gives it a rounded uplifted shape as well. Not as much as a regular 'push up' bra would, but about as good a shape as you are ever going to get in a sports bra!! The v shaped neckline actually gives a flattering cleavage as well rather than a separated/pointy look or a weird monoboob appearance that so many other sports bras create.FUNCTION: I found this bra to be supportive but not to the point of being so tight or restrictive that you feel you cannot move or breathe. I have worn shock absorbers for years and with a small frame but a larger chest (32 G in regular bra size) I do need something that will hold everything in place. I would say on a scale of 1- 10 (with 10 being absolutely zero bounce) this bra scores about an 8. My other shock absorber (D+ max support bra) is probably slightly stronger in terms of support than this one (around a 9 on my bounce reduction scale) so I may still wear that one if I am doing something extremely high impact, but for regular gym use, pole fitness and for general jumping around I find this bra is perfectly supportive enough. I haven't tried running in it yet, but I will usually wear a compression crop top over the top of any sports bra for running anyway so it shouldn't be an issue. The band at the back closes with 3 hook & eye fastenings and the straps are sturdy and adjustable. I find it easy to get on and off.COMFORT: This bra is very comfortable!! Because it gives a flattering shape you immediately feel good wearing it. The under band fits snugly and lies flat (no riding up) and I feel my whole chest is very well contained in the bra. No irritating side chafing at all. I can easily wear this for 2 hours at a time and I am not even conscious that I have got it on. Because of the two layers (the inner band and the outer mesh) there is no rubbing and no nipple show through either. There is also no chance of anything falling out whilst you are upside down (which I frequently am during pole class!)SIZING: As mentioned above, I take a 32 G cup in a regular bra size and I usually go down a cup size for sports bras for a tighter fit. I initially tried this bra in a 32 F however it was quite a bit too small (both round the band and certainly in the cup). So I re-ordered going up one band size (34 F) wondering if that might also be too small but it fits perfectly. I notice at time of writing that an F cup is the largest sized offered in this bra but there are larger band sizes (e.g. 36F, 38F) and the cup size does increase with the band size as it should so hopefully most people should be able to find a size that fits good.Overall, taking into consideration the primary factors when ordering a sports bra (level of comfort and control it offers and how good the fit is) with the secondary factors of how it looks when on and how you feel when wearing it, I would say this active shaped support bra comes pretty close to being perfect! I feel safe and secure in it during active sports, yet confident and comfortable that it looks good too. Can't really say better than that!! :)

Great sports bra that is true to size
This is a great sports bra! Fits true to size and is very supportive. It also looks great!I don't recommend to go a size up in the band or cup as sports bra has to be tight especially when it's new. I have previously bought this bra in size 34C due to reviews and it was too big (my normal bra size is 30E or 32D)

perfect for the job
I love this bra, in fact, i wear them all of the time. They give the breasts a lovely round shape, which i would imagine would be a nice lift for women with dropping boob issues. It also has a nice area where the cup material is quite thick, without being padded, and therefore covers any nipples that may poke through on standard bras. The support which theyre designed for is also spot on ... i do mountain biking and over bumps etc i have very little movement.The price on amazon is also alot cheaper in the shops !This bra also does up at the lower back, as a standard bra, so easy to get on and off unlike some other sports bras.Yes i would buy this product again, and have purchased several of these !!

Pretty bra, little low in front
Shock absorber has a fit chart and going by that and the reviews I went up a size in band but not cup. It is the perfect fit.This rides a little low on the bust but it's ok, it still covers what it needs to. I am usually a 34D and took the 36D which is a bit loose on but I wouldn't have fit into the 34 without feeling like I couldn't breathe! Love the colours and the material.
