Customer Reviews Shock Absorber D+ Max Support Sports Bra N109

Great bra for medium to high impact sports for larger chested women. Straps are padded and comfortable on the shoulders, there is also padding behind the hook closure in the back to avoid chafing. Great support and separation. Nice breathability. On the slightly negative side, I don't think I could wear this bra for hours on end. While I am wearing it, however, I feel very secure and locked into place.

This bra is great for running, spin class, road biking, yoga, hiking, skiing. It's supportive and comfortable. Highly recommended.

This is the greatest running bra ever! I had avoided running all together prior to this bra and now I'm training for my first race. A half marathon! No bounce, comfortable straps. Looks good under clothes.

This was my third and final try for this bra. I started with my regular size, 34G, and within the same order got a 36FF as well just in case. I couldn't even clasp the 34, not even close. The 36 I had to clasp it around the front and then twist it back to the back like an 11 year old. Once I had it on correctly, the coverage was nuts. I felt like I was wearing a chest plate and I needed to joust with someone in one of those old school horsefight things. It was up too close to my armpits, higher than any tank or tee I would wear while working out, and the uni-boob was off the charts! Maybe if I was running a marathon this thing would be great, but for even rigorous gym workout and heavy cardio, I think it's just to much to deal with. I even ordered in a 38F and the band was still snug, and the coverage was the same. All 3, goodbye. May the search continue.

A very supportive bra but the seam runs right through the cup! It's itchy. I thought washing it would soften it up, but it did not. I also bought the Maia and love that one. The straps and structure for both bras are very supportive.

This isn't my favorite bra. I ordered 4 different sizes ranging from 32E, 32F, 32FF, 34F. The one that fitted the best was the 34F. Though below the bra, there is a flap that supposed to go smoothly against the skin. This was not true. It kept flapping up. I have a slim body with huge assets. You would think the flap would stay against my skin, though it did not. The only thing I did like about this sport bra was the shoulder straps. The thickness and comfortable padding was wonderful. I would say stick with the Shock Absorber Run Sport Bra B5044. It works better than any running sport bra I've ever tried!

Like it. The sizing is accurate and it fits nicely. Not so great when worn for long periods, but works well for medium impact workouts.

This is a great sports bra. It lives up to its name. I'm a DD and have no bounce even on a high impact workout.

This bra is true to size, fits extremely snug like it's supposed to. It keeps me in place. I'm a 36G and didn't realize there was a bra that could allow me to run and jump with being all over the place.

Not as much support as some of the other shock absorber models (this company is fantastic), but also a little less like a girdle. Definitely a must for any woman with a bigger than D cup!

This is my FAVORITE sports bra of all time, and I've been through a lot. It provides great support for tennis, aerobics, biking, whatever I do. I'm 34 F-G, and I get a minimum of bouncing with this bra.

Although this bra isn't in any way sexy, it does its job. The girls do not bounce ever. I've never worn a sports bra where The Girls were immobile. It does squash you so that you appear several cup sizes smaller but I don't care. (When your bust size is as large as mine it, it is refreshing to be smaller.) I can do yoga, run, walk, etc. without feeling like I was going to bounce out. I'll be sure to buy more of these.

I've been wearing this as I've begun running (well, jogging). I've always hated jogging because it was too difficult to stay comfortable, but this bra does a great job at keeping anything from bouncing as I'm going. It cuts in towards my shoulders, so some of the breast tissue that's more around my underarms gets squished, but I haven't noticed that bothering me.

Does what it's supposed to do, without underwire! Very nice! Comfortable to wear, good support.

This bra has changed my life. I have a huge investment in VS Bras size 36DDD. I ordered this bra in a 36DD and I am buying another one today. It's the first bra that makes me forget I have boobs - not really, but you get what I mean. No bouncing, no double boob. Really awesome.

I purchased this bra in size 34DD after a breast enlargement (and the clearance to begin working out again!) This bra is AMAZING. I work out intensely doing Cross Fit with a splash of some T25 BeachBody workouts here and there. This bra doesn't allow for any bouncing or slamming of my breasts, yet doesn't flatten them into pancakes or make a uni-boob. I only wish it came in some bright fun colors instead of just black and white! Aside from the limited color options, I highly recommend this bra for large breasted active women!

I love this bra. It's the first time I don't need to wear two bras to jog. I am 8 weeks postpartum and my breasts are still sore. I am breast feeding so I got the bra size I am when nursing. It is snug but I wouldn't want it loose. The material breathes extremely well and I like the support of the straps mid way between the shoulder and neck. If these were not so expensive, I would purchase a few. But it's the best investment I have made!

This bra does the job - I use it for Zumba and unlike other advertised "sports bras" this one really supports a large breasted woman. It does come up high on the chest but I don't mind because overall, it provides the right support.

This is the best bra I've ever had! It's very comfortable in the shoulders and in the back and has a great shape. The support is excellent and I don't have to wear 2 bras one on top of the other to work out. I highly recommend it!

Pros - it is comfortable enough to wear all day; holds me in a natural shape with no 'spillage' and supports my DD well enough to keep me from bouncing too much in Jazzercise. Cons - the neckline is a bit high - the full coverage could still be there with the front 2" lower and I'd be able to wear it with a lot more tops; not seamless so it might be a tiny bit noticeable under very thin material. Con? Not a con for me but if you are embarrassed by hard nipples this won't hide them.

Love this bra! Super supportive - I'm nursing and larger than usual - this bra offers the best support of any I've tried. I still need to wear two bras when running or jumping but can pair this one with a cheaper compression only bra for the perfect support! Worth the money!

I've had this sports bra for about a year now, and there's nothing like it! I wouldn't have ordered it had I realized there was no underwire, but now I'm ordering a second! I need a lot of support for the ladies, and this has done a better job than any other sports bra I've ever worn, and with far more comfort too!

I'm a 38D and I've been on a hunt for a comfortable, supportive bra ever since I swore off underwires. This is a good one. I don't run in it but I do wear it to the gym and it holds up fine to the treadmill and weight training, it stays in place. It's a serious bra!

This bra does the trick! Things stay in place. It's not the most comfortable bra, but I'm using it for high impact workouts. That being said, it's not necessarily uncomfortable, just binding. Feels good to wear when working out, feels great to take it off after.

This is now my best fitting and favorite bra that I also use for daily wear! I'm ordering another in a different color today.
