Shock Absorber D+Max Support Sports Bra n109 Reviews

Great support with minimal bounce. I am full breasted and tend to be glad when the day is over and I can take off my bra. With this bra I feel comfortable and supported all day. Linda from Dobris

Ran very small. The 30 band felt like a 26 (if there was such a size) and it squashed my boobs flat. Maybe the cup size was too small but I don't feel a bigger size would have fit right either. it was very light material, I would be scared that the bra would fall apart, I think I would prefer i material that was a little more substantial. I think this would be a great supportive bra for average figure women as opposed to full figure. Diana from Long Island United States

Fabulous bra. It really holds me in. I don't bounce at all while running. Excellent for runners and athletes! marilyn from Bayside ny USA

I returned this bra. It did a good job of holding my boobs against my body, but it didn't do much at all for bounce. The material doesn't have any stretch to it either, so it felt like a regular no-underwire bra. I don't find those supportive enough for everyday wear, much less for sport. Megan from Somerville, MA

Definitely has the support I wanted...the cup size runs a little bit smaller then most DD cups I've worn in other sports bras..but overall love the bra. megan from neptune beach florida

I'm pretty pleased with this bra. I think the fit is flattering (for a sports bra) and it's comfortable for running with good coverage (no cleavage) and wide, padded straps. My one issue is that the straps in the back are stretchy, which allows for a little more bounce than I'd like. I had the Shock Absorber Infinity bra before and loooooved. it. Thought I'd save a little money this time around, but I think I'll go back to the Infinity when this one is worn out. Amy from SEATTLE

I wear it to Zumba class. It works really well especially with all the bouncing around we do in Zumba. Best support ever! Marinelli from Michigan

I always have trouble finding a sports bra. I found this one and I love it. Sue from NC

I have been able to wear for full days without any rub marks or back aches. Very impressive as this one has only 3 hooks vs. the usual 4. I'm am very short bodied and often find bras will bind on my ribcage. Debbie from Chehalis

this has become my favorite bra the support for my moderate exercise is excellent . the straps are very comfortable and don't dig into my shoulders. finding a good support bra especially for working out as a large size woman was getting frustrating i was so glad to find HerRoom site and return/exchange is very simple and and timely. robin from queens ny

I'd give it 5 stars, except the very scratchy straps rubbed off some skin during my first run. I hope it softens up after a few washings. I'm not interested in how a sports bra looks (attn mfgrs, some of us don't want "cleavage" when we exercise!) It has to perform while running and jumping. This one does. At my age and size, especially after having lost a few inches and some bodyfat, I have empty skin that I don't want to stretch any further. Finding the right amount of motion control is key. This one has compression and separation, and controls the bounce all over. I agree with previous posters, the band does roll, but it's not uncomfortable and it still holds. This has become my new favorite. I just ordered another one! Sally from Boston Ma

Love the support and still have shape too! Could be improved by putting a non-rolling band on the bottom and extending the padded shoulder straps a little down the back. Jill from Auburn, IN

Love these bras. I bought two (black and white). They do everything they say they will and unlike others, I didn't find it THAT difficult to put the bra on. I feel very supported and I will definitely buy these when I need more sports bras! Erika from NY/NY/US

I bought this bra and the Enell. This one gives much better shape, but not quite as much support. Its easier to get on and off (which matters when you are racing from work to the gym) I would compare this one to the Lululemon "ta-ta tamer" in terms of control and comfort (with a slight edge to the Shock Absorber for control, and a slight edge to the ta-ta tamer for comfort). This one is also easier to wash and quicker to dry than the Enell. I think this one is becoming my "general workout" bra, with the Enell being saved for the really high impact boot camp classes.

With this bra I achieved the least amount of bounce and movement. It is tight so I had to order a size larger than normal. I participate in high impact activities such as running and kickboxing, which includes a lot of jumping jacks, high knees, etc. I think this bra will continue to perform as needed.

Full Coverage, supportive, minimal bounce. The band around the rib cage is slightly elastic and very thin. The band rolls rather than keeping its shape and providing support and it can be uncomfortable. The band also comes up high under the armpit and cuts into my armpit leaving a red mark. It is supportive a good for working out but not comfortable enough to wear all day due to the band issue around the rib cage and under the armpit. Susan from Seattle
