Customer Reviews Shock Absorber Max Sports Bra B4490

: This is a great bra that holds you in but it has a few drawbacks. One is that the clasps are hard to reach so you need to nearly be a contortionist to fasten them. Another drawback is the seams - they show through everything! My least favorite thing is there is not enough padding to hide the nipple area so if you are cold, everyone knows it.. I really wish manufacturers of sports bras would understand that there needs to be padding there stitched in (so it doesn't curl or bunch)so we have some coverage when it's cold. The bra however, does an excellent job of holding things tightly which is a plus when you are doing box jumps and other high impact activity. So what i end up doing is wearing my regular bra underneath so I get the coverage I need. Sure it's a little tighter than I want with 2 bras but at least I don't have to worry about things poking out.

Okay -- it is not pretty, but this bra definitely does its job. I did not find it hard to put on -- it is not easy either, but I can get it on and off without help. Admittedly, I am 8 months pregnant, so I am not doing any high-impact activity. I cannot comment on how well this bra really absorbs the shocks. But I will look forward to putting it to the test in a few months after baby arrives and I get back to a more rigorous workout routine. Overall, I like it. I bought 2 of these and am satisfied so far. Only issue is that I cannot leave it on all day. I need to take it off after 2-4 hours.

I love the support this sports bra provides! I am a nursing mom who wears a 34G. This bra is provides more than adequate support for me to run in. I also like that the straps pull together in the back so I can wear racerback tanks with it. I felt that it runs true to size unlike some other reviews I read. My only complaint, which is why I gave it 4 stars, is that the upper clasp on the back is difficult to hook. That said, I would recommend this to any large chested runner or athlete.

I ordered this one and the running bra and they both work well. The running bra is a little more comfortable but I wear this one just as often as the other. As a 32F I have always avoided running but this bra prevents bouncing of any kind. The slight padding on the straps is great because it adds comfort but doesn't look bad or bulky under tank tops. I would recommend this to my curvy and well-endowed friends!

This is completely not true to size. I am usually 32D, but I ordered 32DD. The bra cups are way too small. To be returned. However, the rest of the construction looked pretty good.

Disappointed. Another sports bra that just flattens the girls rather than supporting them (38HH). It is quite bulky, but the straps are comfortable. Kept it only because I have no other options for Zumba at this point.

This was almost a good fit for me but like so many sports bras when it compresses it squeezes extra flesh into unsightly areas - making it look like the girls have migrated to under my arm and the minimal back fat I have oozes out above the back strap. Too bad.

Very disappointed. The style has great potential: adjustable straps AND two sets of hooks to customize the back to fit your particular body shape. However, the size E must mean something different to this manufacturer. With some help, and lots of laughter, I was able to flatten one breast enough to squeeze it into both cups. Perhaps this style is better suited to women with smaller breasts and wider backs. Thank goodness Zappos offers such great customer service.
