I'm in need of some new sports bras but I'm running into two issues: either it's very expensive or I feel like everything is being crushed.

Where does everyone get their bras? I've tried Walmart, TJMaxx, Marshalls. I was going to check out Old Navy and Target.

I get mine at Burlington Coat factory usually. At least they're not expensive there, though "they" do get crushed �� I have a friend who just wears regular ones but I find those uncomfortable for running /higher intensity aerobics

I've been looking for some myself. I tried some on at Kohl's (Nike & Fila), but I couldn't get them on. I have one that hooks n the back, and Target has the Champion brand sports bras for $19.99 that hook in the back, so I'm going try them on soon. If they fit, I'll wait for them to go on sale, and buy one of every color.

Yuck, I could never wear regular bras!

I like the racerback ones as I have narrow shoulders, but those seem to be the bras that feel the most uncomfortable.

If you want a good sports bra you will have to spend a few bucks. But if you take good care of them (not putting them in the dryer) they will last a long time.
Try a sports store and not a discount store - most of the stuff at the discount stores are there for a reason.
My favorite bras that I own are Under Armor. I bought them for $50 5 years ago and they are still going strong. They zip in the front, give great support and do not squish anything.

My 2 faves are Nike and Addidas. Both are racerback style and really good with support as well as comfortable.

I picked them up at Ross on separate occasions. They were both $15.

I have the same issue, I've just been wearing my old ones & doubling up if I know I'm going to be running or jumping.


I just purchased a new nike one so I'll see how it goes (I didn't try it on yet).

Fortunately I'm not far from a Nike outlet store. I find their bras hold up very well. They definitely do hold everything down, but I'm a fan of that since I hate bounce. Moving Comfort usually has a bit more give, also holds up well, and I can find their odd colors on sale at REI from time to time.

Title 9 has a good variety. If you want a decent bra, be prepared to pay for it, or get lucky in off-price outlets.
