I never thought they'd make a supportive bra in my size, but they did! This bra changed my life. I no longer have to be self conscious of all the bouncing b/c this bra holds the girls in perfectly. However, it does not mash them together. This bra is so comfortable that it can be worn for hours at a time without feeling like I'm dying to rip it off. The best part is, when I do want it off all I have to do is unzip it! Not fussing with pulling it over the head. Definitely worth it and way better than any other bra I've tried (and I've tried them all!)

This is the perfect sports bra for those of us with a larger top. I especially love it for runs on the tred mill. I am no longer self conscience as it does the job of perfectly holding everything where it should be.

With swimsuit season under way I went through the usual torture of attempting to find a bikini top that I didn't bounce out of immediately upon diving into the water. I'm a 32 DD and while one might assume that this would be the ideal figure for those itty bitty bikinis, it is NOT. When you try to swim, dive, or actually interact with the water rather than bask prone on the beach, things simply don't stay where they should.

Matched with some simple black boy shorts this sports bra made it possible for me to enjoy water sports again. No one even guessed that it wasn't made to be a swimsuit. And best of all, rather than throw down $$ for a swimsuit and a sports bra, I was able to get both with just one purchase.

For those of you who are smaller than 36 but still need the extra support, try a smaller cup size and bigger rigger rib cage measurement. The 36 B/C works great for me.

Awesome bra!

Unlike other reviewers, this great bra was running a size smaller than most front hooked bras. I had to return, but am anticipating how great the next band size up will be.

This is a great bra for full figure ladies!! I was able to run on the treadmill with ease!!

The best constructed bra I ever had. I love this thing!

I am a 36DD and ordered the Xtra Support Zip bra in the same size and now wish I had gotten it in a smaller size, maybe even two sizes smaller. I need it to strap me down tight to eliminate bounce and make it comfortable to run, jump, whatever. So I was a bit disappointed to see that the bra was not true to size. I have to wear this one over another sports bra for the effect I wanted.

Also, I wish the straps were adjustable, as I found the bra fit lower on my chest than I'd like. Maybe if the bra had adjustment options to fit each and every individual, it would be so much better.

I did like the front zip. It makes it super easy to put on/take off, even when you're sweaty. There's no wrestling match involved to pry it off your body after a long run.

I would suggest trying this bra on before purchasing.

I also found that the bra sizing ran small. I exchanged it for a larger size and it's been great! Very supportive and the zipper is a great feature. No more wrestling with sports bras after sweaty runs! Also, the customer service for backcountry was very helpful and courteous (a rarity these days)....an added bonus!!

I am a 38 DDD and the 38 DD is perfect on me. I am 5'10" so it was a suprise to find anything that fit. I bought my this bra 1 year ago when I started running. I love it! I can jump on a trampoline, run or flip and nothing moves! I am buying two more today to train for my 1st half marathon! (the first one has not worn out yet with repeated use)
