there's a few things we need to talk about with this bra. all comments from other shoppers are true. when choosing this bra you have to go 2 sizes up and it's not the best at reducing the jiggle. another thing is that i seem to be at the loosest setting for the straps to get the back right. i'm 1.62 so that puzzles me. why did i buy it? because it's very quick drying... i use a sportsbra every day of the week for a mat class with lots of upside down work so it suits my needs but if you're thinking of running in it, perhaps choose something different.

Back straps have hooks - I didn’t even get out of the house on my first wear before it pinged open 4 times. Absolutely no way it would survive a run. Hooks angled downward so came undone immediately. I returned and as usual Bravissimo Guildford were amazing. Exchanged for the Shock Absorber Multi bra - infinitely superior

Very comfy and pretty !

Love this bra. I run and play rugby and its holding everything in place ❤ The two colour makes it look like a top so I can strip off with confidence in the changing rooms.

Agree with comments on sizing - normally a 30 back and couldn’t fasten the 32. Felt convincing on trying out a bounce or two in the shop but on first run it was obviously not going to perform. Will be okay for weights, yoga, bike so not a total waste but bought it for running so disappointed by poor support.

This is the third Shockabsorber running bra. Very good quality - just find the fasterners eventually go - but I've had the old ones for about 3 years!

Straps keep pinging off at the back. The hook bits. Only worn once and not sure if I can return! :(

Don’t even understand how this bra had 4 stars average in the ratings! Everything you’d hate was present in this bra. The band is at least 1-2 sizes too tight (normally I’m a 32 in band, read reviews and bought 34 and it was still a struggle to get it on loosest clasp). Once you get it on, it’s a total uniboob effect, no separation whatsoever. Then the worst part is that despite the uniboob squish and the super-tight band, I felt it did not give me enough support or bounce control. I wore it to do cross fit in and was very frustrated with the amount of bounce I still felt. Huge disappointment and I wish I could send it back at this point, but I had taken the tags off and washed it, so I guess I’m stuck. Hopefully this review will help others avoid the same mistake! In the same order, I also bought the other shock absorber bra style. I did like that better. Better separation, band not as tight (still go up a size though). Still not a ton of support, but ok for moderate bounce activity (wouldn’t run in it).
