20 Best Supportive Sports Bra For Large Bust (2023 Updated)

There are pros and cons with these bras, so I’ll start with the good. The quality is excellent, the adjustability is absolutely fantastic, and they definitely keep the girls in place with minimal bounce, better than any bra I’ve ever worn.

I ride horses and have large breasts, so that is important to me. I can certainly understand why so many women rave about Shefit. However, not only does the Shefit Ultimate produce a uniboob, it gives the appearance of an actual third boob in the middle that is even bigger than the other two, with a unicorn horn thanks to the zipper! It’s awful! The zipper (which is great functionaly) pokes out at the top and is completely visible under clothing, even under a shirt and light jacket.

I’m guessing this may not be a big problem for smaller breasted women, but, there are also a lot of better, more flattering options out there in that category as well. It’s disappointing to say the least.

And the zipper is not the only visible part, the seams along the front are also very visible, except under a heavy sweater or hoodie. I tried one of these bras a couple years ago and sent it back because it was so unflattering.

But the sports bra I wore for years was discontinued, and I have not been able to find a better option, so went back to Shefit. This time, I ordered two and kept them. They do the job, which is most important to me at this point, and they are reasonably comfortable.

But, they are VERY unflattering. I would think adding underwire might at least help this problem and possibly make them a little more comfortable, so I don’t understand why it’s not incorporated, at least in the bigger sizes? Or as an option? I can’t be the only one to have this complaint.

Who likes uniboob? Shefit did a really great job with innovation in this category, but it’s not quite there for those of us with a large, natural (no implants) chest, if you also expect it to be reasonably flattering.

Maybe it’s better for women with implants? I don’t know. For reference, I normally wear a 34 or 36 DD, and went with size 2 Lux on Shefit sizing, which I think was correct for me, thanks to the excellent adjustability.

I spent weeks searching for bras suitable to wear after my lumpectomy and reconstruction surgery. My pre-surgery bra size was a 40 L (yes, you read that correctly). Finding dedicated mastectomy or surgery recovery bras higher than a D-cup was virtually impossible.

I called every specialty mastectomy/surgery recovery bra store in a 100 mile radius, and every call ended with me in tears. “Sorry, the brands don’t carry anything that large. ” Finally, I decided to visit SHEFIT’s website, after seeing ads on Facebook.

Based on the band and cup sizing, I wasn’t sure if it would work for me. I used the “Text a Fit Expert” feature and a real human (Rosie!); she was kind, compassionate, and very helpful. she suggested the Flex Bra and the Lounge Bra, I got two of each in size 6 Luxe.

I was floored there was such a huge selection of size ranges. finally, as a plus size woman, I wasn’t left out! The day of my procedures, my doctors wanted to see what bras I’d be using for recovery (they sent me home in a very basic, non-supportive surgical bra), and my breast oncology surgeon was thrilled, said she loves the SHEFIT bras.

I’ve been wearing the Flex Bra for a few days. I practiced putting it on before my surgery day, to be sure I could get the hang of it before being sore. The material is super high quality, nothing flimsy about it.

Even with my current limited movement, I’m able to easily access the strap in the back to gently tighten the band, and tighten or loosen the shoulder straps as necessary. The support is amazing! These will be staples in my wardrobe for life, and once I’m all clear to participate in vigorous exercise again (i.

e. Zumba) it will be perfect to keep me supported.

I spent a lot of time and money trying to find a bra that supported me without hurting me. I came across one of these bras in a store and tried it. It works well for me. The biggest downfall for me is that they are very hard to find in my size.

The material is comfortable and seems to last well. I still have the first one I purchased almost two years ago and I do not feel that it is anywhere near “worn out”. This bra doesn’t pull on my shoulders like the majority of others.

Something about the style keeps it from doing that and I am very grateful. Overall I think it is a great bra.

I have had this bra for 2 months now. I strength train 5 days a week and play softball on the weekends. This bra is GREAT for the gym. I am a 34D and feel snug and supported while wearing it. It’s super flattering too if you’re tryna look cute while putting in your work.

I’m personally a huge fan of strappy backs on sports bras and the fact that it’s a crop top sort of style instead of a traditional bra. My only reservation is the sizing. Based on the reviews when I bought it I bought the size I usually buy for sports bras which is medium.

It fits, but it is a bit tight where the back fat usually shows up. So basically my Lats poke out of it a bit as you can see in my video! BUT as I’ve continued to wear it, wash it, and lose weight I’ve found that it fits a lot better now.

Not sure if it’s because it’s become more worn/stretched out or it’s the little weight loss but I’m not complaining. I think that if you want it nice and snug get your normal size. But it is stretchy enough that if you want comfort you could maybe size up.

I know I could’ve!.

I am very disappointed in what happened to this bra when it was washed! I have bought bras from you for years,mostly when you had actually stores I could go into and see in person what I’m buying! The way I prefer to shop,especially for clothes.

I have always washed them in the washer and dryer them in the dryer. I never had a problem until now. The hook end literally melted and twisted into a mess. I have bought two sweaters and a top and theses bras from you since you closed your stores and the only thing I was happy with was the bars.

I found the sweaters to be way different than what I expected from looking at them on line,very thin and the material is too clingy! Also loved the style of the top I bought but again the stretchy Clingy material was horrible.

I kept the sweaters but so far have never worn them and I returned the top. So I decided I would only order bras from you because I really like the way they fit and look. After I returned the top I ordered three more bras.

And I was about to order a few more when this happened! Just so you know some of the bras I bought from your stores when they were around actually said “hand wash” however I always put them in the washer and dryer and NEVER had a problem.

I sent a message about this problem quite a while ago and the only response I got was the message was received and someone would get back to me but no one ever did. Lynne.

I’m not used to bras that don’t have individual cups. It’s a comfortable bra but I prefer bras with individual cups. I was surprised at the amount of support it gave me. I was pleased with that but I prefer the shaping I get with individual cups.

I will wear it but probably under loose fitting tops like sweatshirts.

I’ve stopped wearing wire bras! Wire-free bras are the way to go! I have tried many brands from other plus-sized stores & Amazon and Im really liking this one. Loved the wide bands and the soft feel of this bra.

Its like a silky elastic bra that i even fell asleep in. It gives a lot of support. The only thing is when u hook it closed, the other hooks may come unhooked so u have to hook the top and bottom hook first and then hook the others in between.

At 68, I have tried a lot of sports bras, and only a couple of them have fulfilled my needs. What I need is a bra that supports my D-cup breasts in a way that feels secure without smushing me and making me feel like I’m wearing a straightjacket.

Essentially, I want a sports bra to do its job so well that I am able to forget I am wearing it. I also want a sports bra to be easy to get on and off — no contortion required. This sports bra fulfills all of these requirements.

Looking for a replacement for my discontinued Juno. This isn’t it. Too much bounce. Could really use adjustable straps.

The color is amazing. I like the option for a longer band because it’s what I prefer however I am a med but this band is a little to tight if I wear it for to long. I wish the band was either not as thick of an elastic or had different options for the band size, if I was to go L then it would not fit my top half(breast size).

The adjustable straps are also a great touch!.

Again super soft and the stretch is great! If all the Vitality bras fit like this I’m going to try other styles too! This one is more longline and while I could def wear under a shirt to the gym, I will need to wear out in the wild under an open sweater.

The color is so cute!.

This is my favorite bra. The color is so beautiful. It’s comfy yet holds the girlie pops in place. The changes that were added to this are 100/10. Simple changes but made the bra even better than before!.

Normally I only wear the zip front sports bras but this bra is incredibly comfortable and supportive! I used this for medium/high impact workouts (running/jumping jacks/lifting) and also to run errands and felt supported and comfortable the entire time.

I am a 34D and the medium fits perfect- not too tight/ not too loose. There are extra pads in the front that can be removed if you’d like. I kept mine in because I felt like they provided more support and don’t give you weird shape outlines in your shirt! The color/shape/style are all awesome.

Would absolutely recommend!.

I bought this exact sports bra and black a year ago and absolutely loved it. The fit and style and functionality were great. As a result, I decided to purchase another one in white. Unfortunately, as soon as it arrived and I took it out of the package there was an overwhelmingly strong chemical smell.

I tried washing it multiple times and the smell has persisted and even permeates to other items that are with it. Unfortunately since I took the tags off and put it through the wash I am not able to return it yet I also don’t feel confident wearing it because the smell is so awful.

Something really needs to be done about this but unfortunately for me it’s $45 wasted. This would make me very hesitant to buy this product again in the future.

I really wanted to love this bra. It is so soft and the straps are extremely smooth and stretchy. Colors are very beautiful too. It is comfortable but I don’t see how this bra is classified as a sports bra.

There is not much support provided. I am a C cup (36C) and my boobs hang over folding the lower band. This would maybe indicate that I could size down. However, some of my chest is also pushed out the sides towards my arm pit so that would indicate its not large enough.

Also, the photo of the model gave the impression that this bra would give some separation. That is not the case. My main goal was to find a bra that would provided support without a uniboob. Unfortunately this one fails on both counts.

It’s a bummer because the fabric so nice. I am not looking forward to even using it as an all day bra because, living in Arizona, a sweaty uniboob is the not fun.

This Bliss Breathe Racerback Sport Bra is just a perfect and comfortable bra. The name absolutely fits this bra because it is very breathable and it feels so soft and comfortable. The fabric is of high quality and feels so soft and silky against my skin.

It provides full coverage, and the pads give a natural lift. The bra gives great support without any binding wires. The straps feel soft against the skin. I really like how it smooths out the back and sides of my body and I can wear this bra without showing any bulges.

This bra gives great support while exercising and feels very comfortable. I highly recommend this bra!.

The bra bills itself as “high support”, but just a cursory glance made me skeptical. Against my better judgement (and because I had super cash that was expiring), I bought the bra. I wore it today to a cardio kickboxing class and it was terrible support! The light and medium support bras I have from Old Navy have way better support.

During jumping and running in place I had to hold my chest down because they were bouncing so much they hurt! DO NOT BUY if you are busty and truly need the extra support.

This fit perfectly in XL. I wear a size 16. The support is really good. I prefer to wear this as a bra during the day as well and it is flattering as a minimizer bra as well. Please make this available in more colours as well as white and nude tones.

Oh and being able to wear the straps straight or criss cross is an added bonus to having the back closure which is so important for ease of putting this bra on. Great job Old Navy. this style is a keeper for a long time to come!!!.

I’ve never reviewed any of my bras before, but I love this one so much I feel compelled to sing its praises. I usually wear non-wired sports bras, but wanted to give wired sports bras a go, as I find compression bras are fine to wear for shorter workouts (ideally up to an hour), but they get uncomfortable for me with extended wearing.

I went into a local Bravissimo branch and tried all the wired sports bras they had in my size, and this one fit perfectly and was was probably the most comfortable, not just of the ones I tried that day, but of any sports bra I’ve ever worn.

The material is nice and soft, and I think there’s extra padding around the underwires because I could barely feel them, even as someone who usually hates the feeling of underwires. The encapsulation style means my boobs didn’t feel squished (plus gave a nice shape); the four hooks on the band are a bit of a faff to do up, but they are worth it as it means the hold of the bra is distributed over a wider surface so it doesn’t feel tight, and I don’t have any red marks when I take it off, even after wearing for several hours.

One other thing I love about it is that, while there are some great cross-back styles offering great hold which are perfect for running, my issue with those styles is that they can be quite restrictive around the shoulders, which makes them less practical for other high-impact activities that require arm mobility, such as HIIT, basketball or martial arts.

Whereas this bra holds my boobs firmly enough to run in but doesn’t compromise any mobility. Definitely my new favourite! Like some other reviewers have already said, I would love to have it in additional designs, including also some plain colours to wear less visibly under work clothes.

Beautiful bra, lovely colour, super soft, bought a 40KK along with two 40K normal daily bras. 40K did up with room on the band. this sports bra in 40KK barely reached past my ribs. Why is it sports bras have no stretch no give and always come up super small.

I maybe a bigger woman and have ridiculous size boobs but I want to exercise and even with a FOUR HOOK back extension it couldn’t reach. I have big boobs in the front getting in the way, I cannot do the swizzle trick.

I put a bra on under it and I nearly managed to get it done up. But really that’s not the way we want to be doing this bra dance 😂 absolutely gutted as I just want to be able to go the gym :(.

Finally a sports bra that isn’t crazy colours in random patches that actually looks and feels fabulous! I love the leopard print and could totally wear it on its own as it has a great crop top style look.

The fit us great, size as I expected and I feel very supported. Excellent lining so it doesn’t rub or itch. Love it, thanks Oti!.
