sports bra for the larger norked lady?

14 replies

I have finally decided to register for the Race for Life which I guess means I have to go running...

Current bra size is 36G due to DS3's apparent inability to go more than about 2 hours without a breastfeed but can't find a sports bra in G cup anywhere!

Any ideas? TIA

Bravissimo?

I am not a larger norked lady but due to being at the other end of the scale and not able to find lots of bras in my size, I recently started using Marks and Spencer Website.
Was ordering some more of my 38 A bras to you Tommy and they seemed to have a really good range of sports bras.
The on line bras seem to have every bra in every size which is more than you find in the shops. They also have a special section for DD+

duh - yes - have just looked online and found some. Don't have a shop near me but I will try and order online. Thanks - current tatty saggy feeding bras are just not going to be up to job

Shock absorber. Avoid M&S bras if you have big norks - they are crap

pukkapatch · 11/03/2008 12:26

all in 36G. they have larger szes as well.
use themn link to get ten percent off

I am only a C normally and would love these norks if I had a decent bra!

M&S don't go up to G cup - obviously we are not supposed to go running just in case we hit ourselves in the eye...

stay far away from m&s bras.
i love figleaves. dh hates how there isalways something from them on his credit card bill. but if you have larger norks, then a decent bra is more important than clothes.

I am a 34HH and I find this site good:

Same as EffiePerrin... Shockabsorber, level 4. Avoid M&S like the plague. Also avoid anything with wire if running is your exercise of choice.

flatmouse · 11/03/2008 12:41

Me too - got level4 shockabsorber. It does what it says - they go nowhere!! I initially ordered from lessbounce (as i liked the name!) but they didn't have it in stock so i brought from figleaves. I can't fault the customer service at lessbounce tho - they apologised, they've given me 10% off next order, and they rang me when it came into stock!

Tommy · 11/03/2008 12:58

thanks all - I'll give them all a look

My cousin is large of nork and plays rugby, she swears by wearing 2 sports bras at the same time, one with a racer type back and one with 'normal' straps.
