Sports Bras? Cheap but decent quality?

rainbowfairydust

can anyone recommend somewhere that sells cheap-ish sports bras? I will be needing it for running , and my boobs will need strapping down ( i am a dd cup) .

I dont want to spend a fortune , as i will need to replace the bra once boobs start shrinking , and i dont have much money to spare at the moment as i have just moved.

ETA - High Street ideally - i prefer to try them on before i buy.

Difficult one if you want to try them on, although I don't think it's quite as critical when you are wearing some tight fitting, possibly compression top. I use high-impact ones as I play footie and they squeeze me a bit and can sometimes be a devil to get on and off. My selection includes some from M&S and also Aldi (or was it Lidl?). Decathlon do them and there you could try them on I imagine.

Anyway, good luck with the running: I've done nothing since the end of my season and thanks, you've reminded me I need to start again as I'm feeling so sluggish.

H&M have a good bunch, from low support to high support. I bought mine for £12ish and it's very comfy, but I do have smaller boobs than you but they don't giggle with the bra on at all. You've also got Sports Direct for all sports brand - both H&M and Sports Direct you can try on.

If you like I am happy to inspect pictures of you in them to see if they are suitable.

I've got a couple of Lonsdale branded ones - I like them because they do them in actual bra sizes rather than as "support tops" (S,M,L sizing). I do reasonably high impact exercise and find they provide a pretty good level of support.

Sports Direct usually have them included in the sales and I've paid a variation on £3 - £8 for one.

Also, I hate to be that woman - but why do you think this sort of sleazy comment is ok?

Love the thought of it stopping your boobs giggling! :rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks for the replies. Have just measured myself again using this website . According to the calculator i am a 38 C/D (rather than DD)

Will check out sports direct , and H & M as well as M & S (incase they have any on sale), and also possibly Primani. I have some of their sports wear which was fairly decent quality (for the cost) -probably got lucky there though tbh.

Mrs G wears those too... and she got them on offer in Sports Direct.

I think I have the same ones, they're described as 'crop-tops' and sold in little boxes, but they're sized like actual bras. I swear by mine, the best sports bra I've ever had. Comfortable and decently supportive. Love them.

I'm a D cup and use athletic works bras from asda for yoga and lifting. Not as bouncy as running but they are good quality with wide straps which really help.


ETA: they are about £6-7
