    Hello ladies.  I have recently purchased a really nice treadmill and am awaiting its arrival.  I need a few new sports bras but have yet to find any I really love.  I am a C/D cup size and am looking for a good bra to run in.  Anyone found a winner?

    You need to be prepared to spend... The likes of Triumph, maybe Freya, all the top end really. Running's prob the most demanding thing you can do in one too!

    @miss.skinner:  I'm also a C/D and I found that the Champion "Double Dry Seamless - Reversible" sports bra is the best for me. I run 3-5 miles, 5x a week, and they definitely keep me secure ;-)

    I swear by a champion bra that I've worn so much I can't even see the brand anymore.  I buy them in the less popular colours from the outlet store whenever I get a chance... but it looks pretty much like this one:

    I'm a C cup and love the Nike bras for high impact exercise like running, I've got 3 in different colours. They're not cheap but not super expensive either, shop around online and you can find a good price.

    My favourites is the Nike Updated Strength model, it's does the trick for me.

    The Juno by Moving Comfort is AMAZING. I am a DD and I do NOT bounce in this thing. It also has some padding in the front (not excessive) so you don't get any show-through if you start running when it's cold out. It looks like a little bit of a pain because it clips together in the back and the straps velcro together, but it's great because it doesn't stretch out then and you can make it tighter as it does. They sell it at Athleta and lots of places. I spent about $50-$60 for it, but my breasts don't hurt after I work out (I was running when I wore this and now I'm doing stuff like Turbo kick which is a lot of jumping, kicking, jumping jacks, bobbing, stuff like that). Now that i know my size (for me, true to fit, same as my bra size), I will be buying them in the ugly colors for the cheaper price =]

    It's seriously amazing. I want to sell them to all the ladies in my gym classes who bounce too much.

    @miss.skinner: I have pretty small breasts, so I can't speak from personal experience, but I know that Title Nine has a huge selection (and they are an awesome company to support).

    I absolutely love the Victoria's Secret sports bras that latch on the sides.

    I don't have that problem! But, I also have heard great things about VS.   Also, I have a friend that swears its easier (and cheaper!) to just wear two!

    I second Title Nine! The Hallelujah bra, and the triple threat bra are great.

    I've used them both for riding and running and they keep things under control very well.

    Moving comfort bras are AWESOME.  I am usually a 34D and have 3 Fiona bras. I have run several half-marathons in them - they really minimize the bounce factor.  The girls are really squished in there (even though I need to go up a size to 34DD), but they are comfortable.

    I have some of the victorias secret high impact bras already and i will often wear another bra underneath due to lack of support.  I am hoping for a sports bra that I dont' have to do this with. 

    Thank you ladies for all the advice.  I am googling them all now.  Smile

    @Miss.skinner, i wore two sports bras for YEARS before i switched to the Juno. those straps allow you adjustible support. I usually stretched out most high impact bras pretty quickly but this one holds its shape stellarly

    My Moving Comfort Sports Bra is the only bra that has ever done anything for my 34 DDs/Fs.  If I go running, that is the only bra for me.

    You ladies are awesome.  I just placed an order off amazon.com for moving comfort bras.  (1 fiona and 1 juno).  I figured this way I could decide what style worked best for me and the prices were so much cheaper on amazon than anywhere else.

    I am a 32/34 C and jog - so I need a sports bra that holds the girls in.  My sports bra was way too old (about 2 years) and it has taken me 5 stores & 2 days to find a bra that works.  I ended up buying a Champion t-back (think it's model #1050) at Sports Authority last night, but had to also buy a Nike workout shirt with a bra liner thing so my boobs wouldn't bouce around.  The tops move (the stuff on top that all squished together/up), but my actual boobs don't.  I bought a similar combination a few years back and that worked.  BUT.  I read reviews on here and other websites about Moving Comfort bras.  I went to a shop yesterday (different one than the one I bought my Champion at) and tried on several Moving Comfort styles.  The Juno rocks.  Seriously.  I did the cool jump in place thing and there was no movement.  The store only had white in stock, I don't like white workout stuff, so I just ordered a blue one off amazon this morning.  I am seriously excited for this sports bra.  It was $47 online, but I think worth it (plus I spent $60 yesterday for the Champion bra & Nike shirt, so the Moving Comfort bra isn't really that expensive considering).  I am all about Moving Comfort's Juno. I'm pretty sure I found my go-to sports bra!
