Okay, I'll admit it - I'm a sports bra fanatic. I've tried what feels like a million of them, always searching for the perfect fit and support. As someone with, shall we say, ample assets, finding a sports bra that keeps everything in place without feeling like a medieval torture device is a real struggle. But my friends, my search is OVER.
Enter the Wacoal Sport Underwire Bra:
This bra is seriously a game-changer. I'm a 38FF, and after trying on what felt like a million other bras (7 or 8 to be exact!), I finally found this one. Even though the first one I ordered was too small, I was so impressed that I immediately exchanged it for a larger size (with Alisa's fitting help!)
Here's why I'm obsessed:
-
Unparalleled Support: This bra has underwire (essential for us busty ladies!), tall cups for maximum containment, and wide, supportive straps. It passed the bounce test, run test, and even the dreaded burpee test with flying colors! No more painful bouncing or awkward shifting during my workouts.
-
Comfortable Fit: As someone with soft, pendulous tissue, I often struggle with bras that crush or pinch. This Wacoal bra is the first one I've found that doesn't cause me any pain, even in the wrong size! The underwires are positioned on the outsides of the cups, which is surprisingly comfortable and provides excellent support.
- High-Quality Construction: This bra feels incredibly well-made. It has four rows of hooks for extra support and a secure fit. I also love that it feels like an encapsulation sports bra, which I find much more comfortable than compression styles.
A few things to keep in mind:
-
Strap Adjustment: The straps are adjustable, but only just barely long enough for me. If you have a larger frame, this might be something to consider.
-
Getting it On: It can be a little tricky to get on, especially if you have larger upper arms like me. I can't hook it behind my back, so I have to put it on like a regular bra and then rotate it.
- Not the Most Glamorous: Let's be honest, this bra isn't going to win any fashion awards. It's pretty plain and utilitarian. But hey, who cares when it's this comfortable and functional?
The Verdict:
I'm absolutely in love with this bra. I've already bought two in my correct size (thanks Alisa) and I can confidently say that my sports bra search is finally over. If you're looking for a supportive, comfortable, and high-quality sports bra, look no further than the Wacoal Sport Underwire Bra. You won't regret it!
