It has been a long time since I wore one, so my old bra doesn't fit. I am a 20E, what is good these days?

I like the Berlei (sp?) brand. Harris Scarf had my favourite on sale the other day I think it is called 'Electrify' It is recommended by the AIS and is really supportive. They were on sale for about $35 each. They only go up to an 18E but that could work with an extension.

I've been buying Hestia at Big W. Really cheap (about $25) and quite decent. I buy 16E. They would go to 18 but not sure 20...as PP said - could work with an extension.

Enell. They are not cheap, but so worth it.

i used to love berlei but they got rid of my fave last time i was fitted for this one, it's very comfortable, only problem is that i wear mine for every day wear, not just at the gym, and it's pretty big for that lol http://www.triumph.com/au/en/612.html

QUOTE (Retro_Mumma @ 27/04/2012, 01:15 PM) I have this one, its gold http://www.bellaforma.com.au/shop/Energise...a-pr-17325.html I concur! In fact I'm wearing one right now (they're the comfiest, most supportive and best cup-shape bras i own so I wear them a lot not just at the gym)

Do you have a Dimmey's near by? I used to buy most of mine from Myers. My favorite brand has been Berlei for sports ones. However there is no Myers where I live now and I discovered Dimmey's sells them for a FRACTION of the price! You can't always get your size and you will most likely have to spend some time going through the racks trying to find your size but its really worth it when you do and you walk out with a $50-$60 bra for around $10-$15. Definatley worth checking it out. At the moment they have a Berlei sports one that crosses over at the back and its super comfortable. Paid $15 I think.
