Custom Control Sports Bra

As with other Glamorise sports bras I sized up from a 34H to a 38G. I also purchased this bra in the wonderwire version which is called something to the effect of "full figure wonderwire bounce free." They are one in the same. 1) the wirefree version provides the same exact support and has the same non-stretch straps (slide adjustable in back and hooks in the front. 2) with a Glamorise wirefree bra you want to look at the internal structure. If you have the two moons with one band strap, you're not going to get anything out of it. This bra has a seamless, non-stretch cup that features a criss-cross internal structure with a "magic lift" band that you can find in many of their bras even wired. That "magic lift" does just that. 3) there are 5 hook colums without too much padding so it's still easy enough to hook them yourself. The hooks are secure and do not pop out easily even with the struggle of trying to figure out what to do with 5 hooks. 4) The band is supportive without being too tight. My bra bands always roll and this one does a pretty good job and doesn't dig much (I'm fleshy). The band also appears as though it won't stretch out much. The Glamorise high impact bra will stretch to no end. 5) The mesh front will pull down so you can wear this safely in a seatbelt if you're out driving. It can also provide modesty if you're wearing a lower top. The "no bounce" feature doesn't prevent all bounce but it does one heck of a job. I can bounce without discomfort. If you're highly against wires, this could be a great everyday bra especially if you want to wear button down tops. The wired version that I mentioned, is equally good and comfortable but again is labelled with another name. I'd steer away from any camisole bras as they are either unsupportive or have a lot of extra fabric under the arms which is painful and they made me feel like I was being suffocated.

There's lots of reviews here regarding size and so forth - if I'd followed the directions apparently given by the bra designer, I would have ended up with a terrible fit. I got this bra in the same size as all my other bras (which have perfect fit) - I measured around my ribcage for the band size (being sure to look in the mirror to the side to make sure that it was parallel with the floor, DO NOT add any inches, that is a myth and you will end up with a too-big band size! for odd numbers, add an inch) and then in my best fitting bra, measured around the bustline. The difference between the two numbers accounts for cup size - 1" is A cup, 2" is B cup, and so on. This method worked perfectly for this bra. YES IT IS TIGHT but it loosens a bit over time, and tight is what you want with a sports bra like this one. Now, if you have implants the method might be a little different, I don't know. In this thing, I can run, jump, do jumping jacks, I could be a trampoline artist with this thing. I wear a G cup. Can you understand how life-changing a bra like this is? In this thing, my breasts do not shake or move at all. Seriously. I usually keep it on the tightest setting, but sometimes will let it out a bit if I'm not doing a high-impact exercise. This is not a bra to be wearing to lounge around the house or just hang out. It is a SERIOUS sports bra for serious activity. It's designed to hold your breasts immobile no matter how much your body is bouncing around. I find it really comfortable, after the initial 'gah! this is tight!' To reiterate: Best Sports Bra Ever. I wish I could afford to buy another one or give them to all my female friends who do high impact sports. So great.

I actually quite love this bra, I only took away a star because of the sizing. First up: I chose 2 band sizes up and a cup size down, after reading multiple reviews here that said the band sizes run small, and the support may be medium-impact if you choose a larger cup. I measured for a 34 F, and ordered a 38DD. The good news is that the back hook closure has a relatively large adjustment range for a sport bra (3 rows) and the shoulder straps can adjust a couple inches as well. Not quite enough for me to give me high-impact support, but medium support. (however, it would be easy to simply shorten the strap a half-inch myself with a stitch, and it wouldn't show at all.) The adjustable front is brilliant and simple, the panel unhooks from the shoulder straps, and you can hook it higher up the strap to pull the bra in more firmly to compress and lift more, and give different levels of support. So you can adjust the support and relax in between different type of training, or on your way home. Nice comfy material, soft & smooth where it touches skin. Firm wide elastic. Chest band width was ok for me, but I am petite (so I wouldn't want much wider, but one reviewer found it rolled up). The inner part is a cupped bra, so doesn't just smash the girls together to (they won't rub & chafe). The front panel also hides the cupped bra bit, so it didn't print out under my sport shirt. The height of the sides was ok for me, I didn't find that restrictive or rubbing. (petite person) I did some brief hopping in it, but didn't do distance running. I found it was actually fine while sprinting up and down flights of stairs without flinging lady-parts wildly. I wore this for archery, and it gave me decent support without restricting my arm, shoulder, chest and back movement, and was comfy all day for a long day. I would buy it again just to wear as an everyday bra, it's comfy enough & gives good support, although if wearing a low-neck top or deep v-neck the front panel may show as it's high. For a high-impact support bra, I would probably go down another cup size (although I thought the cups fit me ok). If I had bought my usual cup, it definitely would not have fit. I could probably go down a band size and would fit comfortably, but be able to adjust more snugly (it's on the smallest right now.) Great for the price!

Glamorise custom control double layer sports bra is my dream come true! A woman must have designed them. I could kiss the design team! Let me count the ways I love thee! I have 8 of these in 32 I. Yes I. I am 5’3” and 135 pounds and size 8 jeans. I wear medium t-shirts. My upper chest arm-pit to arm pit measurement is 32 inches. My underbust measurement is 27.5 inches and my fullest bust measurement is 37 inches. These measurements are for when I wear the 32 I. I followed the directions for size finding based off the company directions. But I found that you need to take the fullest part of your bust measurement minus the underbust rib cage measurement to give the correct difference in inches. If I’d used the Glamorise above bust minus fullest bust I would be a 32 B like boy. However, taking the largest center bust minus the under bust gave me the correct size 32 I, like igloo cup. So I ordered the 32I and it fit perfectly! The band I need is a 28 to fit super snug against my ribcage. But this band has enough hooks that I can tighten it down enough that I get support. I do wish it was tighter but it is the best option I have found. If you are a 32 band or a 30 band the 32 should be fine. They have a lot of adjustment hooks. I ordered every brand of sports bra available in 32 I or equivalent from Amazon and I did a 5 minute jump in place or my bounce test at home. I sent back all the other brand I tried except for GLAMORISE because they were extremely painful and left deep red marks in my shoulders! I hate sports bras made by lingerie companies: Syrokan, Freya, Panache, Shock Absorber, and Enell (all of which caused extreme shoulder and neck pain and had zero support. In short they are torture devices!). I really wanted the Syrokan 30G cup to work but the band was even looser than the Glamorise 32G. So Glamorise double layer I love you! I hate ENELL’s flagship sports bras because they kill my shoulders. I could not wear it more than 5 minutes. But the. ENELL’s racer back style is a million times worse! It was hands down the most painful on my neck and shoulders. I returned them both. I absolutely LOVE LOVE, LOVe my GLAMORISE custom control double layer sports bra and I will be a faithful customer for life! Brooks Moving Comfort used to make a 32 G (European cup) Embody (model) sports bra but they’ve discontinued them. And it’s too small. The new Brooks models that say 32 G aren’t not a European G but a US size G Which is considerably smaller by two cup sizes! And Brooks no longer makes cups as large as I need. I want to lose 35 pounds. Once I lose weight I will still BUY GLAMORISE sports bras as they are the most comfortable, supportive sports bra I have ever owned! I can and do wear them all day, every day. I do 30-40 minutes of HITT and TABATA cardio 5-6 times a week and lift heavy weight 3 times a week in the GLAMORISE. I do layer my old too small Brooks Jubralee 32 F over the top of my Glamorise sports bra when I am on my cycle because my breasts are super, super, super sensitive but the other 3 weeks of the month I don’t need to have the extra compression from a smaller sports bra over the top. This is my holy grail sports bra and if my house was on fire I would run back in to get my Glamorise sports bra. I am a customer for life baby! I hope my measurements helps. Buy some. Figure out your size.

This sports bra is a great value and ranks better than most of the far more expensive styles I've tried. It is comfortable, supportive, and feels good. It also looks really nice under a fitted shirt; while there is some compression, everything is perky, shapely, and where it should be. Fair warning: I've gotten more boob-stares while on the elliptical in this bra than I have in my other sports bras, despite having no bounce whatsoever in this one. The major problem is the sizing, as other reviewers have mentioned. I used the Glamorise website's size calculator, which determined that I should wear a 34F, which is my normal universal cup size/European bra size. I ordered that size, and while it fits, the band is very, very tight. My below-the-bust measurement actually comes to 33", which typically puts me on the middle hook set of a 34F bra. This one is incredibly difficult to get on when I'm using the loosest hook set. I actually managed to re-injure my wrist in the process, which is kind of amazing because the injury initially came from a fall while curling. You know, the sport-that's-not-a-sport on ice? I really need to fabricate a better story than "I hurt my wrist while curling and then while putting on a bra". The cups are very slightly (maybe a quarter cup-size) large, but I like the fit. I've found the best way to put the bra on is to unhook the overlayer so I can adjust things better in the underlayer, then once I'm all swooped and scooped I re-hook the overlayer. I really love this bra, especially for the price, and I plan to order more, but I'm going to try the next band size up and the commensurate cup size down. So, in sum, my plan is to go with one band size up and one cup size down (as a larger band size requires a smaller cup size for the cup to remain the same). So, as a standard universal cup size/European size 34F, I'm going with a 36DD. Hope that's helpful! EDIT: The 36DD is a perfect fit! It is so comfortable and so supportive. I absolutely love this bra and highly recommend it. I also can't believe that it's less than half the price of most of the sports bras I've found of comparable quality (and this one is actually the most comfortable of all). This bra has earned a 5-star rating for sure.

This bra is great for larger cup sizes. I bought a 36DD and 38DD to compare. I usually wear the 36. The 38 is more comfortable around, but the 36 cup fit better. That being said, the way the cups are designed, even if the cup is a little large it doesn't seem to matter because of the cover that is adjustable over the front. The cups are pretty perky and it looks like an old fashioned playtex cross your heart bra, which was disconcerting at first. But really the design is great, because once you pull up the front and adjust it as tight as you need, you have a really nice perky look, instead of being smooshed! And, the girls stay where they grew, instead of migrating! I am keeping both sizes. I will say that I have very sensitive skin, so the band felt a bit irritating. But the solution to that is deoderant under the band. Just like you can use it on your feet to keep down blisters, it works great! This bra also seems very well made and I am sure will last for years

Was looking for a new bra to use for running, to control bounce and allow for strap adjustment. I usually wear the Shock Absorber Ultimate, but when I saw this one, I thought I'd branch out, as I wear Glamorise as my " daily bra" brand. I ordered the size i wear in other Glamorise styles- 34DD. Was nervous about band size after reading other reviews but it was exactly right, in the size i usually wear. The liner, however, had a little too much material, so it had small "folds" when the outside layer got attached, although they did not really make lumps, since the liner material is thin and silky. The outside layer is adjustable (hooks just below the shoulder in front, like a bib covering over the liner ) and was snug enough.. The tiny folds in the thin liner material were probably not that critical, but since the reduction of bounce factor was not as great as I'd hoped, I decided to just send back and not order in a smaller cup size. I liked the standard back hook on this bra and the adjustable front "netting" would probably give sufficient hold for most. Not sure why the inner lining is sized roomier, but if I were to order this bra again, I'd go one cup size down. If I didn't already have several Shock Absorber Ultras , I'd probably give this bra another try. This bra is the 2nd best of any sports bras I have tried...which have been many. The bounce reduction is much better with the Shock Absorber Women's Ultimate Run sports bra (34E is their equivalent size) , although that one is definitely harder to adjust and hook (and i have had an occasional problem with those back adjusting straps fasteners sliding out during exercise on one bra , of the 3 of these I have owned). BTW, IMHO and the Glamorise model that is simply called Glamorise Sports bra is the BEST everyday bounce control I've found, but not enough control for actually RUNNING, with a large chest Good luck, buxom gals that wanna move!!!

I haven’t had a good sports bras since high school. Nothing in the stores comes in my size. I’m now a 44F, though I was closer to a 44DD in high school. I recently got a few sports bras from Amazon to try. They all fit, but one was one of those “comfy” bras that can’t actually offer support during a workout, another gave me cone shaped boobs that were very noticeable under shirts (think bullet bra), and then there was this one. Seeing the reviews, I decided to buy a cup size up (44G). I can get it on and it holds everything in place. Literally no bounce. However, the straps really dig in and it is a struggle to hook and get the straps over my shoulders. So I decided to size up even more in both band and cup size to a 46H. This one is much easier to get on and more comfortable to wear, though there is a little bounce. I’m going to keep both and will use the smaller one for more high impact workouts while the larger one will be for more laid back stuff. This is the only sports bras I’ve found that will actually hold boobs larger than a D cup and doesn’t look strange. I also like that the front panel (grey in the ones I got) is adjustable to add just a bit more support or coverage. My two complaints are sizing and the straps. If you don’t want to stick with 2 bras like me, I recommend going up at least a band and cup size. Sizing is very small. I think the straps are also dependent on cup size, and therefore small. I have them extended all the way on both bras. On the 44G bra, it’s difficult to get my arms through the straps and they can leave red marks from digging into my shoulders. I haven’t worn the 46H for an extended period of time, but it was already much easier to get on. However, beauty (and working out) is pain and this bras actually supports me while holding my chest in place, which is very rare for my size.
