Shock Absorber Active Multi Sports Support Bra Dark Grey / 40H

After years of searching for the right sports bra I finally struck gold with this one. I only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because I think the cups run just a bit too small. I typically wear a 28HH or 30H so I went with a 30H in this bra. The band is very snug, which is good, but i have just a little but of spillage/cutting in at the top which I think sizing up a cup would totally fix. I love that it is full coverage and comes up higher on the chest. I also love that the straps are closer set into the shoulders in the back and the front. I have very narrow shoulders and with most bras the straps cut in under my armpits and start to slip off my shoulders, but not the case with this one. And of course it provides great support even while jogging and bouncing ... MoreAfter years of searching for the right sports bra I finally struck gold with this one.

Disappointed as the sizing was completely off. Bought in size 38D; have subsequently used bra extenders on all fastenings and can say the absorber works. However, the brand is Champion sport and not shock absorber (the original). I am not a slight build and maybe that was the reason for my difficulty in correct size/fitting.

I have a number of Shock Absorber bras, haven't bought one for a while because they are great quality and last forever. I wanted something for HIIT as well as callisthenics and thought I'd give this a try. Doing it up does take a little bit of practice (Shock Absorber are good with their sizing but the first time you put it on you think it is too small because it is like a second skin) however now that is nailed and the bra is brilliant, I can even do some of my runs in it. It allows full range of movement, doesn't chafe and keeps things separate (I'm 34D)! Chose the Blue/Grey one which looks much better against my skin (I'm dark blonde) than I thought it might. So an excellent buy.

This is my very first sports bra which I needed for horseback riding. My regular bra was just not cutting it! Horseback riding is a very high impact activity and this bra completely enables me to concentrate on my riding and not worry about my bra moving or slipping or having to constantly readjust myself. I ordered my regular size, which is 38DD, and it fit perfectly. Another fabulous side effect of wearing this bra is that it minimizes, so I look smaller in the chest, which is great! I am very happy with this bra and I will be ordering several more. Very highly recommend to any woman looking for solid support and comfort!
All I can say is if I could give this bra a zero star I would! The sizing is utterly horrendous, when I pulled it out of the packaging it looked like it wouldn’t even fit a teenage girl never mind a woman who’s normally a 28ins around the back. This bra was by no means a 30f when I put it on there was literally two inches of material missing I mean I might be carrying a little Christmas weight but I have not jumped from a 28in to a 36in in a matter of two weeks! when I measured the bra it came to 58cm, I’m not lingerie measuring expert but I think we’re missing a good 10-12cms here. I also ordered another sports bra in the same size and it was exactly the same problem. I wish companies would be a little more consistent with the sizing of the products they stock. ... MoreAll I can say is if I could give this bra a zero star I would!

I’ve wasted so much time over the years ordering from figleaves only to have to send most products back because the fit is so poor and so far off the mark.
It does limit bounce so from a very basic sports bra perspective, it does what it says on the tin.BUT it doesn’t completely stop movement,so my boobs do still move around and overall I hate the squashed up squashed together mono boob look. In short I wouldn’t recommend this bra, and I wouldn’t buy again. The trouble with these sports brasis that you don’t know until first work out - and then (If you don’t like it) you can’t return it. But as to what I would buy I don’t know! I currently have a Panache wired sports bra on order so let’s see ...
I will only buy shock absorber and I will always recommend this company. Being a small back and large boobs girl, this bra does the job as it supports and feels comfy. It also has the bonus of looking good on, so you feel fab. I wear the bra for Zumba but is great in the gym and jogging. The pink colour is fun and it washes and drys well. It might be a bit pricy than other makes but well worth it. Shock absorber bras hold their shape and will only don't fit if you change sizes! I would add that I normally wear a 28GG but I did order a 30GG and this fits fine.
Good support, great price on sale. Bought 34G, but unfortunately, I double over the top of it. I would have loved a smooth line like my regular bra. Any recommendations for a sports bra with a smooth line, please?
Such good compression, I actually feel safe and secure. Love the white detailing, very cute design. Initially found it quite hard to do up the back strap, but with a bit of practice I'm used to it.
This is absolutely ridiculous now. I paid for the bra and then 1 week later they tell me it’s not in stock and if I wanted a refund to contact them. They did offer an extra $20 to buy another bra but I wasn’t happy with the other bras.I asked for a refund, it’s now been nearly 3 weeks!!!!! And I haven’t received my money nor a response to two emails. This is beyond ridiculous. I hope this review lights a fire under the team to contact me.
