Excellent bra for large breast!
In case you don’t read my long review – great bra; works perfect. I finally have a proper sports bra. If you have large breast this is the bra for you. And yes, the other reviews are correct in that you may wear this as a regular bra. However, my review is based on it being categorized as a sports bra. My typical issues with bras come from the fact that I am relatively smaller around but with extremely large cups - 34HH. So, see detailed review below from that perspective.Comfort A+I bought both sizes, 34HH and 36HH just in case – based on sizing recommendations. Both were extremely comfortable. As anyone with large breasts can attest to, underwire bras can feel like the enemy at times. Lots of digging and sticking and scratching. And, even if it fits perfectly the first time, after a few days of daily wear is starts to become uncomfortable. Not this bra. After about a month it has retained is comfort. The material is smooth reducing itching and lacks that side underwire (while retaining support) which typically digs me.Fitness AI workout daily. So, once I realized this would stand up to my workouts, I had to go out and buy a few more. One or two won't be enough if you are working out more than 3 times a week. I have worn it for running (5k max), Zumba, strength training and yoga. During yoga was the only time I found myself constantly adjusting - and this was due to some of the poses we went into. I was pleased to see how well it held up. I was comfortable, with lots of support - no bouncing all over the place. I have been used to sports bras for larger breast that give you one giant uniboob, where everything is sucked completely in and does not move. Somehow, we have defined this as support and this bra dispels that. The bra separates the breasts and has some give so you can breathe but still provides support so your breast isn’t bouncing around and hurting. The tag would move in Zumba and end up showing but that was about it. The smaller (true to fit) size worked better for workouts. See below regarding racer back.Cups A+The cups were perfect. Like many of you, one of my girls is bigger than the other and in my case, significantly bigger. As a result, the smaller one had a small gap in the front which made that breast look more pointy than the other. Which is why I think if your breasts are looking pointy, I would suggest going a cup size down and filling out the cup. The material is very sturdy and strong so it will only change shapes if your breasts are full enough to change the shape and give it a curved look. Otherwise, it will just be the shape of the bra. A few years back I went to bra fitting specialty store and I learned the art of “filling” the bra cup and doing this properly really does make a difference in the shape of your breast – particularly with large breasts that are natural. Note: this is technically a sports bra so the coverage is more than full coverage – if you can imagine. So you will not be able to wear any lower cut or v-neck shirts as it comes pretty high up. No cleavage what-so-ever so keep in mind if you opt to use this for everyday wear. In some of my summer dresses it does come higher than the dress’s neckline.Straps/Racer back BThe straps are board, strong and soft. Lots of support without digging and scaring. If you chose not to hand wash, you may inhibit its ability to not loosen during running so throw in the washer at your own risk. Many of us looked to this bra because of its ability to convert to a racer back. Because, for whatever reason most fitness tops are racer back. This bra does work and retains its comfort in racer back but there are a few drawbacks which is the only reason I removed a star (Note; if this were not categorized as a sports bra I would not have removed a star for the racer back feature). The first is you will need to adjust (lengthen) the straps so you have enough to properly make it a racer back. Doing so prevents the back strap that goes across your back from rising up and weakening support. This means you can’t just throw it on then hook or unhook as you need. You’ll need to decide how you’ll be wearing it and adjust with each wear. Second, you will need to lower the clips/hooks 1) so it is hidden behind most racer back tops which aren’t as high and 2) to keep your posture and support. Once you do those two things, you can successfully wear this is a racer back, be comfortable and retain support. However – you may need a second set of hands to do this successfully the first few times which is a bit inconvenient.Overall, this is the best option I have seen/tried for large breasts. I can’t stress enough that compared to others I have tried, this option is fantastic!

Excellent sports bra
I didn't have success with this bra in the past, but it's funny how sometimes when your size changes, a bra that didn't work in your previous size will work in your new size! I currently wear 38H in Elomi bras with the exception of the wire-free Caitlyn in which I wear 40G. This sports bra also fits me in 40G. The cup in this runs large and the side support is lacking UNTIL you hook the j-hook in the back. I hook it first and just put the bra on over my head. Have to scoop everything in as I always do. I feel supported and secure in this bra. I actually like that the bra goes up pretty high in the front because it looks like a cami. When I lean over there is just a little pushing out at the top but the next cup size up is way too large. The front view when wearing this bra is attractive and streamlined (my breasts are forward, not in my armpits) but from the side the cups do appear very pointy. When you put a shirt on over it, it's better but still pointy. I'm hoping in time with repeated washings the point will soften. One GREAT feature is that the j-hook in the back can be moved up or down. I've tried other sports bras where it had to be in a certain spot and it wasn't a good spot for me; it hurt my back. In contrast, THIS bra makes my back feel supported. Also, of course, the separation is important. I have a short torso and my breasts are close-set at the top but the wire is ok; a little high but in almost every bra the wire is high for me unless it's a short little triangle gore. The fabric continues above the wires so they lie flat instead of pushing out when I lean over or sit down. The only thing with this bra is that you may need to play around with the sizing. I had to size up to a 40 band in this bra not only for it to be less tight but to have the cups be in the right place. I'm sure that would depend on your frame and body type which is why online bra shopping can be difficult even when you read everyone's reviews for fit information! Good luck!

GREAT BRA WHEN FITTED CORRECTLY
I highly recommend this bra primarily because Elomi offers a full selection of sizes that is not available in most stores. It is, also, very well made and gives a smooth look under even thin materials. It provides good support that give the midriff a longer and better look. I bought the bra for sports and found it so outstanding, it's my all-the-time choice. Most women with large breasts don't wear the right size because of the lack of choice. I didn't recognize that I'd had the wrong size until I was fitted in a specialty store. A proper-sized cup should lie against the breast bone with no overflow at the top or sides; the shoulder straps should not be tight and there should be no indentation across the back because the bra is too narrow or small. If you've had this experience, I'd encourage ordering at least two cup sizes up and another size up in the strap to start. You might want to order two different sizes since getting a good fit sometimes takes a few tries but it's worth the effort. Amazon will accept returns on this; I suggest leaving the tags on until you're sure it fits correctly.

Good fit, good bra
I am usually a size 40 double J. But for this one I got the 40 J (double J wasn’t available) and it fits well, has good support. The only thing I can complain about is it does push my boobs together and I hate that. I want them as far apart from each other as possible to prevent sweating. But it’s a great bra for my workouts/house cleaning and generally keeps me in place so it does it’s job.

Love this bra!
I love this bra. It’s very supportive, it holds my breasts up high like they’ve never been held before because I’m large chested. They might be a little pointy in the cups but I’ve never had a bra support me as well as this one. I don’t want to take it off.

Fits and comfortable
Have been wearing this brand for years now. It fits the best, true to size, and is the most comfortable one that I have found.

Best sports bra for large breasts
This bra is the best sports bra I have ever owned. Supportive and comfortable, full coverage. Almost no stretch so there’s no bouncing around. Highly recommend. For ladies with “extended size” chest measurements, who’ve spent their life wearing two bras to work out - this bra eliminates that need. Supportive enough to run in, even with L cups.

Fabuloso!
Sinceramente es una de las mejores compras que he hecho, el bra es muy cómodo, queda como si fuera a medida cuando sabes cuál es tu talla correcta. El J hook es un plus ya que hace que se mantengan mucho mejor en su lugar! Verdaderamente que son los mejores bras deportivos que he usado, cada costura e incluso la tela con la que están fabricados están muy bien pensados. Feliz de poder hacer cualquier ejercicio en el gym sin preocupaciones

Für den besten Halt und gegen das Schwitzen
Also zuerst mal, schwitzen tut man logischerweise mit größeren Oberweite weiterhin, aber dieser Sport Bra trennt die Brüste perfekt und hält sie auch. Es ist bereits mein 2. BH und es sitzt perfekt, umschließt die Brust und was ich besonders praktisch finde, es ist genug hochgeschnitten, dass es bei Oberteilen mit weiten Ausschnitten kein Unterhemd braucht, denn mit dem Bra sieht es schon so aus als hätte man etwas drunter (sehr praktisch für heiße Tage). Ich würde und werde weiterhin dieses Produkt für mich wählen.
