Lululemon's TaTa Tamer II
This bra is the one. I tried the BounceBreaker X years ago, and while it was comfortable, it didn’t break my bounce. The designers at Lululemon kept after it, though. No more bras that just smash and call it support (which doesn’t work for us big-chested girls anyways).
I can’t decide whether I like best the flat seams, the cool, stretchy fabric that never overheats, or the removable cups best (another way to stay cool on those long runs.) The magic really comes from the wide padded straps, which are adjustable and crossable. They provide the support that lets me run for miles and not come home with welts or chafe marks either.
The price is a little high for what I might normally want to pay for a sports bra, but they are a socially conscious company and the TaTa Tamer earns its keep. I’ll be buying more.
About Susan
I am a runner. I love to run. I hate that my butt jiggles when I do so. I run to inspire my daughter and stay svelte for my husband - but mostly I run for myself. I reluctantly and obsessively weigh myself five times a day. I insist my L & R iPod headphones are in their respective ears. I blog to keep myself on track physically, mentally, and to ensure I do not spend all my money on shoes.

Nice review, Susan. I think I might have to make a trip to Lululemon to check them out. I *love* them for my yoga apparal but wondered if they could truly support my running needs. The TaTa’s, as you mentioned, do not need a mammogram-like squishing sort of support. No. That just won’t do. Thanks for your product review, Susan and thanks Complete Running for not letting this cool site go dormant.
Love my TaTa Tamer II. It is the most comfortable sports bra I have ever worn. It definetly keeps the girls in place (36C) while making them look nice too.
