Did you know we don't use tape measures at Bravissimo? Instead we fit by eye as knowing how a bra should look and feel is the best way to find your most comfortable fit - here's how…
How do you know if your bra fits right?
1
How should your band fit?
Most of the support comes from the underband. It should be horizontal around your body without riding up or digging in. We recommend fastening a new bra on its loosest hooks so that you can tighten it if it stretches over time.
2
Where should the underwire of a bra sit?
The underwires in your bra should sit flat on your ribcage (not your boob!) all the way round to your armpits. The wires between your boobs should lie flat against your chest without digging in, rubbing or poking out.
3
How should a bra cup fit?
Make sure your boobs are fully in the cups – a bit of a scoop, wiggle and jiggle usually does the trick! You should fill the cups without any bulging or wrinkling even in a lower-cut style and there should be a smooth line, with no ridge, where the top and the side of the fabric ends.
Not sure what size you are, or feeling uncomfortable in your current size? Don’t worry, we’re here to help! A whopping 92% of women change bra size after their first fitting with us, so you’re not alone! We promise we can find you the uplifting fit that you deserve.

I run half marathon distance and have completed a triathlon and never wear any other sports bra as none of them offer same comfort and support as the Shock Absorber Max.

Really good support bra, I run in it and it holds me perfectly. I like the colour . I do get slight rubbing, however, I have this with all sports bras, tend to put a sock in between, this helps. Fits really well. Happy with my purchase.

It is the best running bra that I have, and I have several different styles, but not perfect. The shoulder straps are too long. It is not comfortable for all day wear and as an ultra runner I suffer from rub a bit.

Review by Joan L on
Comfortable even in extreme heat, lasts well, bought several in black and white and have lasted through many washes and years of wearing daily for sailing and skiing as well as gym. Does a fabulous job of supporting too. I like the thicker padded straps and multi hook back strap and good coverage for the more modest among us.
