I have had enough of underwire bras and lingerie and want to start wearing sports bras regularly. I have known a few people do to it and they found it comfy. I have big boobs 36GG- can anyone recommend some good super comfy sports bras? Need good support cos of big boobness but doesn't need to be super rock solid as if I was using for actual exercise.

I'm only an E (so nowhere close to you) but i adore New Balance sports bras. I wear a small and they're really comfy and I wear them under lots of my casual tops. They do a few different styles.

I got a pack of those of the type you get from Wilko but they gave no support really. I use them when Im dossing about the house only.

I've got 4 of these from Tesco. I think £8 each (?). Reversible - one side black, one side white. Racer back over the head crop top sports bra. I use for actual exercise (running) but they are so comfy I also wear for every day sometimes.

You have to be careful of "uniboob" with sports bras. There your boobs are pushed together and end up looking like a solid ledge rather than two separate entities. I definitely have a better shape with a proper bra so would wear an under wired one horse evenings or formal wear. But these sports bras are not that bad and are quite acceptable for every day wear, I would say. Much better than those "do nothing at all" seamless monstrosities.

I'm on the lookout too and actually bought that Tesco bra last week - I wouldn't recommend it for GG boobs. I'm an H and it's way too small for me (I got an XL). I bought one online that said it was for big boobs and got a 2XL size and it barely comes up over my nipples. I saw some a while back advertised on Facebook I think that are sort of structured like a wrap dress but I can't for the life of me remember the make and I haven't been able to track them down again.

I've been losing a lot of weight this year, so have been many different sizes while wearing these.

I'm currently 32E and wearing the medium. I may fit in the small but medium fits perfectly well. I fit the large when I was 36/38 E/F/G and fit the medium when I went down to a 34E/34F.

I couldn't fit in the XL when I was in the 40" plus chest (I started at 46" and have gone down from there). I did try at the time but I suspect it's because the stretch is less in a sports bra, so it holds you more securely.
