Shock Absorber Infinity Sports Bra b5044 Reviews

I almost gave up on running until I found this sports bra. Its amazing. There's barely any bounce and its actually comfortable. I would highly recommend it if you have had trouble finding a supportive sports bra. Amber from Texas

I am very pleased with this bra. It was a little tricky to get on at first with the two fasteners (one at the top at the shoulders and the other usual clasps) but once you've got it, it's good. No discernible movement while running. I would definitely buy a second. Diane from Massachusetts

I love this bra! I have looked for years to find something for my38DDD REAL breasts. Ladies, do not waste your time on anything else!!It is comfortable, it does NOT create a uni-boob and there is hardly any bounce. It is a miracle!! The fabric is breathable and non irritating. It does NOT give you madonna boobs like some other heavy duty sports bras I have tried. I am a mountain biker and I am so glad I found a bra that is comfortable and keeps my boobs steady!!!

This bra is fantastic and I have 36Ds. The first day I wore it, I ran 10 miles and it kept everything in place. I normally have to wear a shirt under my CW-X running bras to prevent them from rubbing my skin raw. My only regret is not ordering it sooner, during the real summer heat. Just ordered a second one.

I think it's a well made sports bra. It fit tighter then I would of liked in the upper midriff area but I decided to wear it anyway and it works for me. However I'm only 115lbs. wonder how it would work for someone with more weight. I appreciate your thank you's for my business and continued interest in the product.

I've worn this bra for a couple of road races and an Olympic-distance triathlon, and it has performed perfectly. The band definitely runs small, so I had to adjust accordingly. I'm usually a 34D, but my size in this bra is 36C. I've been very happy with it, and I will probably order more. Kathleen from Baltimore, MD USA

This is the best sports bra I've ever tried! It's comfortable and supportive - and not in the uniboob way! I wear it for running and don't even think about jiggle. How nice! Jan

Normally a 30DDD, reviewing the 32DD. I love this bra. I run about 40-50 miles/week and this bra is absolutely excellent fantastic when it comes to comfort and support. There is still some bounce that I can observe if I bounce around in front of a mirror...it is not going to totally obliterate any bounce, but for this active, larger breasted runner, I actually find it perfect. I don't feel any bounce while I am in running motion, which is different than bouncing up and down in front of the mirror motion. It is the only sports bra I will wear now (I have two of these ones). It does flatten you out, so probably overkill if you are just walking something for easygoing walking and do not need to smash down your curves! It is also nice and light, surprising given the support it offers. I really cannot recommend it enough. Love love love. I had no problems with the clasp at the top from the get go. I just looked at how it worked before I put the bra on, then moved the "top" clasp down over the "bottom" clasp and snap, it was together. A note for those who normally wear bras very close to their true measured ribcage size - the band is definitely tighter fitting. If you are in your "true size" (as in you do not add 4-5" to your ribcage measurement), you may need to look at whether you need to go up a size or not. For example, my ribcage measures at 29" snugly and I normally wear a 30 or alter 32's to fit snugger. The way the Run bra is built is that right underneath the breasts (at the seam between the main body of the bra and the elastic) there is little to no stretch. For comparison, at a full stretch, the band of my 32 Run bra only goes to about 31/32", whereas I can usually stretch a "normal" 32 band to about 35-36" (which is way too big for me). I find the 32 Run is nicely snug on me even on the loosest hook, and is the only 32 I can wear that I do not have to alter. I am not sure why Shock Absorber did this, but perhaps it is because they realize a lot of women normally size up for regular bras and accounted for this. If you are someone who sizes up in their bra significantly from what their measurement is, you probably are fine in your "regular size" or even down one. If you are very close in measurement to your band size, or go down a bit for your band, you may need to go up a band size in the run (I did adjust my cup size going up a band size so from 30E to 32DD). Hope the above little bit about sizing helps, as I know ordering online I really struggle with finding out what size to order in bras as many women report different things about how bands or bras fit, but I know not everyone is in a band size close to their ribcage measurement, or the right bra size, so it makes it hard to know!

I agree with other reviewers that the band is slightly small. I'm not exchanging mine, just because I'm losing weight, so I'd rather deal with a tighter-than-I'd-like band right now than a too loose one in a month. It's expensive but if you are rocking big knockers like me and running, it does a great job. It also looks like a sports bra, which probably shouldn't be important to me but is. Jade from TX

First sports bra I have bought in years. Great purchase and worth the money. I got it in two colors. The top hook was a little challenging at first, but now that I have learned to contort my body appropriately, it's a breeze. Virginia from Houston

Great Bra! It is so difficult to find a decent sports bra these days. I am a 32FF in a regular underwire bra, but I ordered a 34F in the shock absorber after reading that it does run a little small in the band. It is tight, but holds the girls in great! no more wearing 3 bras to run and jump anymore! Although some bounce is expected, it has made exercising so much more enjoyable! Worth the money!

This is a wonderful bra! As others have said, it can be tricky getting on the first time, but it is totally worth it! This is by far the best sports bra I have ever owned. Even without underwire, it doesn't give me a uni-boob and the girls barely jiggle. There's still some, but for the first time ever I can do jumping jacks or jog for a bit without my shoulders killing me! GET THIS BRA! Vanessa from United States

Great sports bra. I had been holding out for months (if not years) to find a a replacement for the one I loved. This one is great... The only thing I don't love is that the clasp at the top is kind of tricky to clasp. Overall, no bounce. Pleasantly surprised! Virginia from Houston, Texas

Love love love this bra! I am training for my first marathon and all my other bras have been chafing my skin during long runs. I tried tape, body glide, two bras..nothing helped. This is the only bra that doesn't hurt my skin. It is also very supportive, comfortable, and easy to put on (I leave the top closure closed, pull the bra over my head, and just close the hook-and-eye one). The bounce is minimal, which is great because I can get away with using just one bra instead of two. I will be ordering another one shortly. Joanna

This is by far the best sports bra I have ever purchased! No bounce whatsoever! The hook at the neck is a little tricky at first, but I think it definitely helps provide that completely held-in feeling. My normal 30 band size is a tad uncomfortably snug. However, i know as often as i will be wearing this bra, its going to loosen up. Kristen from New Jersey

Specialty size sports bras are expensive, few, and far between. At 5'0" 34DD, a soccer player and runner, I can settle for little. This bra holds surprisingly well for the thin feeling material. It was actually comfortable hours after I was done exercising! Definitely recommend this one. little rib cage big boobs from colorado

This bra is very supportive. I use it while running, and it's the first sports bra I've had that actually holds up during intense physical activity. Amanda from Cincinnati, OH

I usually wear 36; however, this particular bra seems to run a bit small. One of the best anti-bounce bras that I have purchased. Carolyn from Bristow, Ok

I'm a marathon runner with implants and was looking for a bra with tons of support. I was sick of wearing two sports bras. This bra is AWESOME! no bounce at all. I wear a DD and bought a D and haven't any issues with it or any pain in my neck/shoulder area. Great bra!! Heather from Michigan

I was in desperate need of new sports bras as my old ones were no longer very supportive. As I had used the Shock Absorber brand before I ordered three different styles to see which suited my body best. Hands down the SA B5044 Infinity was the best for me. I'll add that I love to run, go to the gym 2-3 times a week and have a 36DD/38D chest to keep under control! This bra is very comfortable, with soft seams and the racer back created by the additional clip keeps bounce to the bare minimum. I had not realized how much energy I was expending with all the bouncing and feel that my running has also improved as a result! The clip was a little tricky the first time but easy to get used to. Importantly the bra washed well and line dried quickly. Since purchasing the first I have bought two more, one in black and one in white, so I guess that is a very good endorsement!

Love this bra....it is a little tough to reach the top closure, but I knew that before I bought it. It does a nice job of separating and is pretty comfortable for a sports bra. LP from Oro Valley, AZ

I just got this and wore it horse back riding last weekend. This thing is freaking awesome! It was the most comfortable I have been on a horse (jiggle wise) in 25 years. I truly wish I would have had one of these when I was playing polo. This would be great for large busted runners. Mary from Richland, WA USA
