Glamorise Women's Double-Layer Custom-Control Sport Bra

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.

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.

UPDATE at bottom of initial review: After several purchases on here, I finally got a bra that almost fits. The band does run small, but the cup size seems accurate. I originally ordered Glamorise #1006 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000VK3TW0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage in a 36G, and it was WAY too small. Both the band and cups were way way off. So, I ordered a 40 H in this one, as H is as high as it will go, and depending on the brand, I wear anywhere from a G to J. I had a very hard time getting any of the hooks to connect because it is that small, but I finally was able to get the bottom hook to connect so I could see if the cup size was right. After wearing it for a few minutes, I think it might work. The band might stretch more, or I might just get a bra extender instead of sending this one back. Hopefully, I'll lose some weight anyway, and this will fit better. I love that it has the adjustable front part too, because it creates an even better "lift" if you need/want that. It looks like you could even fold it down and tuck it under the band if you really wanted to wear it with a regular shirt. The straps are pretty comfortable for a sports bra, and for the weight they are carrying. The straps do adjust easily, and seem to hold where you put them. The bra even without the front part pulled up, has a normal shape to my breasts. Not conical, or pointy at all. They look like they should look. I wish I could find this bra without the front part to use for every day wear.....well, and also added side boning to support them a bit more. Not sure why such a huge size difference in Glamorise bras, but so far in my experience, they vary greatly in cup and band sizes. I just might be able to get away with a 42G in this one. The H fits, but seems it might just be a tad roomy. Hard to tell because the fabric is stretchy. For me, in this brand, measuring under my bust, and adding 5" will give me the closest band size. Not my actual measurement. I don't know why some brands are actual measurement, and others add 5". I'll have to remember that. It wouldn't work for my cup size though, because when you measure that way, you subtract your bust from your band size. That would make me an F for this bra, and that would be too small. Weird! I'm tempted to try this in a 42G, and see if it fits even better. UPDATE: Still liking this bra, BUT man is the band ever hard to hook! 38H and it has 5 rows of hooks! I can only ever do 2 hooks, and that is BEFORE I even put the bra over my boobs. I have to hook it, then shove my boobs up in it, lol. So crazy! Hoping one day it'll stretch enough where I can hook them all. I may have to try to get an extender since I am going to keep it. Definitely needed a 42 in this one, even though I am a 38 (34" measurement, but need to add 5 inches which would be a 39, but they don't make it in 39. My fault for not ordering a 40 but I thought I'd be able to use it on the last set of hooks) I wear this bra in all kinds of tops, and it looks fine.

I love to run, but I'm a busty girl. Half the time I wear two bras, just to feel like my boobs are at least vaguely attached to my body, and won't go flying off in all directions like a pair of spooked birds. I also work as a vet tech, and I'm often placed in uncomfortable and weird positions while holding animals. Many a time I've stared down my bubbling open scrub top at my bra while balancing on my head, thinking, "It'd be really nice to wear a bra that's comfortable, provides coverage, and also lets me run after work without changing. Oh, and it has to be in my size. Yeah, right, like THAT'LL ever happen." Suffice to say my only complaint is this doesn't come in a billion colors, because I would buy all billion. Though really, I'd settle for a solid black. Note on sizing: Sizing is true to size, however, when I first put it on the first time I was like, "Oh GOD it's snug." I even had my hubby help close the clasps in back. But after a few days wear it broke in perfectly, and now it's my favorite bra to wear to work and to the gym. And I can even get it on by myself! Fancy that. Now look ladies, if you want a bra that will cause all motion of your chest to cease (and you're beyond a cup size C) then I suggest a roll of duct tape, 'cause it ain't happening any other way. However, in this bra I can run and not feel like my boobs might punch me in the face, or give me a nice one-two hit to the solar plexis. Rather, they move, but they move with me, in the way most of my body moves and jiggles a little when I run. It's very comfortable, and don't feel like my boobs are strapped on so tight they wouldn't move if I was taking off in the Space Shuttle. They're also not pushed together like the Uniboob of Death, so I like to wear it under my regular tops. The bra is somewhat reducing, too, so I don't look QUITE as busty as I actually am. A plus for me, I have to say. Two thumbs up, five stars, and for heaven's sake MAKE IT IN BLACK ALREADY!

I ordered a 42I and This no way fit me. I know I measured myself and wasn't wrong about my size so I measured the bra and low and behold it is about 32-34 inches. And not 42. This is 10 inches off! If you're going to sell something make sure its labeled correctly. I will try to order other bras to see if it was a one time mistake, but I have little faith. Will update later. You will have to do the Prime wardrobe and try it to make sure they are actually selling the right size. Edit: So I exchanged for a bigger size. This was frustrating because the sizes on their chart does NOT cover all the sizes they sell so I had to guess and go off what other reviewers posted. I am a 42I I ordered a 42I (it is actually 32DDD) I hate how they measure above the breast and over bust, but regardless their sizes are STILL wrong. I went with 46I based on the fact someone said going up a band size or two you may need to go down a cup. Because like I said, their size chart doesn't on the page does not go up to this size I STILL had to guess. Well I got it quickly and it is still it is weird. I went up 2 band sizes and it is 8 inches. As you can see you will have to totally guess and try to get the right bra. Cup is better, but still no I cup and only 7 inch difference making it more a G or H. I still stand by review and star rating. I will never buy another bra from them. Ever. I do plan on keeping this second bra and hope to lose weight into this size, but after that and at this price I'd rather buy SheFit bras. It's similar prices and more accurate sizes and more more durable and more adjustable. I have one of each. Only the stretchy part of this bra is good material, the non stretchy part is the cheap nylon that is stiff and starched feeling. SheFit is a nice fabric blend for a couple of dollars more.

I'm 5' 8", 255, and typically wear a 16 on top, 16/18 on bottom, and a 38/40 G in bras. I bought the 42H. Hats off to the people brave enough to post pictures, but that ain't me. The bra is extremely supportive, so I'm sure it would be great for runners/dancers/bouncers in any way. I am simply trying to find new everyday kind of bras at the behest of my orthopedic, so this was just not it. I also personally really dislike stitching/seams that cuts across the boob, but that's just my preference. As far as fit, I found the 42H to be pretty tight around my ribcage (which is the thinnest part of my torso) and very tight on the shoulders with the straps about halfway tightened. The cup was a good size.

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.

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.

I've tried many running bras over the years, but never found one that was spacious, comfortable and fully supportive. For women who are slightly more well endowed than average like I am (I wear a 36C), I highly recommend this.

This bra doesn't have soft cups or underwire. The different slots provided for lifting the cup, doesn't make much difference. It doen't nullify bounce-effect, though reduces it. Material is good and comfortable. I would suggest the designers to work more on the 'bounce reduction' as such bras are specially meant for plus size women. I would expect a better design soon.

es un sujetador deportivo comodo, proporciona una buena sujecion, y sin aros. el diseño me parece feo, pero cumple la funcion dar mas opciones para poder ajustar a tu gusto el sujetador

cup size is good, but too small around by about 3 inches. very disappointed.

It has taken me 40 years to get my first decent running bra that is comfortable and 'stops the bounce'. Have also bought one for my daughter (14 D) and she agrees - ises for netball. Have also used on multi day hikes. So nice not to be battered and bruised!!! Only complaint is the sizing of backstrap- seems to run small to the size - it is inconsistent with other wire free sports bras by the same brand - much tighter and I am hoping the hooks hold out long term.
