Hello everyone.
While it's not painful yet, I've been noticing more and more how my growing breasts move about when I'm exercising.
I would like to get some suggestions on sports bras or undershirts that are affordable, comfortable and breathable. I'm asking this because I've observed how some members seem to be exceptionally good at picking comfortable/stylish bras.

I get mine at Kohl's. My favorite brand is Fila -- I can usually get them for $20 using a coupon. My wife wears them too (but I wear large, she wears medium)

LOL!
I was just posting in another thread about how my breasts are sore right now, and they hurt when they bounce around even the slightest bit when I'm on a treadmill. =__=
I should try a sports bra as well (my friend and I were waiting until we're hot and skinny in the summer, and just wear sports bras and yoga pants to the gym xD) But I may have to try one soon.
I had a Victoria's Secret one before that was really nice, and very cute, but it was the only one on sale and all they had was a 32A. Since my shoulders are so large, the bra was nearly impossible to get on. The fact that the cup was one size too small at the time didn't even bother me, it was just the band cutting into my shoulders that killed me. But if you wear a larger underband like a 36 or something, it might not be such a problem getting it on if you want to try theirs.
Wal-Mart has some pretty cute ones right now on sale, so I think I might buy one and see how it works out (they're zebra striped and neon! Too perfect!) Can't find them on their website, though, otherwise I was gonna put up a link...I mostly do weight training, and only about ten minutes a day on the aerobics machines, so it isn't too big a worry for me. But the little bit of time I do spend on those machines, I do definitely wish I had something else to hold me down.

I see a few of these are also on sale at Amazon. Unfortunately, I'm looking to spend no more than $20 per bra until I find one that I really like.

I haven't gotten to this stage yet. For me it's more of the feeling that my breasts are just moving about rather than feeling soreness or pain.

A 38 band or a large size should be a good fit for me. Walmart does sound like a good place to start to see what works for me and what doesn't. Zebra striped and neon sports bra certainly sound stylish though! Comfort and fit though take more of a priority for me though than getting the most colorful sports bra.
It's been a while since I've been here and even longer since I've purchased a bra. I just checked walmart.com and they do seem to have quite a few pretty sports bras around $10. A website I've purchased from is
http://www.nylingerie.com which had a extensive selection of larger sizes.
The Bally sports bra 2-pack at Sam's club is good for comfortable and keeping things restrained. Less than $20 for the 2-pack.
Long time no hear EricaB. How are you doing?
Since I mentioned that sports bra and don't have a link where people can check it out, here it is modeled by yours truly. Fair warning, it does squash things fairly tightly.
Other than colour, the first two appear to be the same bra as the one I mentioned. The package did say high impact on it. I no longer have the packaging to check, sorry.
If I may inject a note here, I have found one thing that I look for in a bra that is not mentioned here and that is a low cut in the center. I had a real nice bra that fit great but had a very high center. It even showed above my tshirt and caused an embarrassing moment. End of bra. Now that is the first thing along with size that I look for. Problem is that most low cut bras have wires and I prefer wire free.
