Best sports bra: Custom fit
Nike Revolutionary Bra, $70; NikeWomen.com
All of these bras have a lot of science behind them. Nike spent six years developing this bra. It’s very techno-looking, but also attractive and comfortable. It uses heat-molded technology that shapes the cups without any seams or darts. It’s adjustable three ways — not only on the straps and rib band, but also the neckline (in between the breasts). This unique strap in front adjusts the cup size, so it’s customized to your body. Only available online now, in stores July.

You lost me on the title, until I read it I was thinking why a bar? I'm cheap I would not pay that much for a sports bra, I don't have much on top so maybe thats why I like to go to nordstram rack or Ross and get 30.00 one for 6.00

Well, how good would I look in it?? LOL


To be honest, I have returned a LOT of sports bras because they were uncomfortable.

I'd only buy it, if I've tried almost everythign on the market and they didn't help at all. I'd think for more endowed women, this may be good, but for those that are C or less, maybe not even C, I'm not sure, most on the market are good. I mean, Title Nine has some really great ones....for over half the price....although their's are expensive too. KWIM?


$70! Only Nike.

-LOL- glad I opened the discussion Gretchen, wasn't sure if it was going to be about bars to drink in, or bars to eat, lol!!


Personally I don't like ANY sports bras! I find them extremely uncomfortable, and a pain in the neck (pun intended) to put on and take off.


No....don't think I'd fork over $70 for one, even if I did like to wear them!

Moderation IS Key!

Have you tried Title Nine. I hear those are supposed to be really good. They have barbells that rate how supportive each bra is. www.titlenine.com It's usually $30 or so, but that's better than $70, no?


My problem is usually, wide shoulders, can't get the sucker off. Buy a zip-up one, the zipper irritates me cuz it's cutting into the skin. Bleah.


ETA: this is cool, you can shop by size. lol. http://www.titlenine.com/jump.jsp?itemID=246&itemType=CATEGORY&path=1%2C3&KickerID=1280&KICKER

I am way to cheap to pay that much for a bra... Although I probably should.

That's a good idea, the sports bra and built in tank top. Might give that a try with my DD.
