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.

Started the couch 2 5k and this is a life saver to stop the girls on their independant jogging.

This fits very well. A little tight around the curve under my arm for the first few wears- but if it is comfy now- it will give a little too much later on.

Love the shock absorber - just got my new one - have been wearing them for years and have never found one that does a better job as far as I’m concerned!

Review by Judith M on
This is a great bra which offers both comfort and support. My only issue related to the back size - I usually wear 36 but ordered this in a 38 but it was still too small and I have to use a bra extender inset piece to fasten it up. Really good support under pressure though and find it comfortable to wear.
So small!1 out of 5 stars

These are absolutely the best bras for running, but the sizing is really small, and even between shock absorber styles the sizing is not consistent, which makes it tricky to order online. Once you find the right size though it’s a game-changer

It’s the most comfortable and supportive sports bra I’ve tried! I do hiit workouts and whilst there is some movements it’s not like my boobs are bouncing up and down!
