In my capacity as "Runner 5" (Zombies, Run!), I pick up a lot of sports bras - just today I collected at least 3 during my missions (along with several pairs of underpants!). In my capacity as a runner on a budget, and back in reality, I was looking for something comfortable, functional and not bank breaking! I have 2 sports bras, which I have owned for around 10 months. They are both manufactured by La Isla (who I think have changed their name to Syrokan since I made my purchases). SYROKAN Women's Racerback Lift Comfort Support Underwire Padded Push Up Sports BraWhat they say:
My Review This is currently retailing at £16.49 on Amazon, including delivery. This is a very pretty sports bra, available in a range of colours. I have the light blue. I am a 34/36B and own this in 36B. It is a little on the large size cup-wise, although I'm not sure that the next size down might not be a little too small. It has a racer back and hook and eye fastening - it pulls on over the head. Through trial and error, I have learned not to wear this for running! Although the support is fine, and generally it is comfortable, it rubs my sternum, causing a small and very sore blister if I wear it to run. However, it's fine for weights, cycling etc. Comfort: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Fit: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Value: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Control: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Appearance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would I recommend: Not for running, but for non-running sports. SYROKAN Women's Med Impact Racerback Contour Padded Underwire Support Sports BraWhat they say:
My Review This is currently retailing at £14.99 on Amazon, including delivery. I have to say, I love this sports bra. It pulls on over the head (which I've seen other reviewers say is awkward to do, but I've never found that), then hooks and eyes on the back. Really comfortable, with plenty of padding and great coverage at the front. The (racer) back has nice wide straps and sits comfortably right across the middle of my back. Doesn't ride up or move around whilst running. Size wise, I'm a 34/36B. I have this in a 36B and it fits beautifully. I've washed this at 30 and 40 degrees and have tumble dried it multiple times and it's still in perfect condition. I will definitely repurchase this - in fact I expect I'll buy another fairly soon since I'm doing so much running. At this price, you couldn't do much better! Comfort: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fit: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Value: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Control: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durability: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Appearance: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would I recommend: DEFINITELY!
