I'm not that big busted (average I'd say) but still they either ride up the back, I fall out when I bend over or the band rolls up under my chest when I sit. Yeah, I see ya'll nodding. :lol:

I have been fitted too by a pro and it still doesn't help. I like to breath too, especially because I have asthma which a tight fitting bra doesn't help that! :roll:

So if anyone finds one LET ME KNOW

My guess is maybe it's the wrong pro?
Breezies aren't comfortable for me. I do like the all nylon ones, but are not too supportive and they roll. :thumbdown:

Who ever decided we needed to wear bras anyway? I save mine for going out in public with DH or in thin tops. At home comfort is mine. Plus with the fibro, my skin is extra sensitive and things like fasteners, straps and elastics drive me crazy!!!!!!!!!!
It's just not worth it!!

I do not were a bra, I have faced breast cancer 2 times and the second time I decided I could live longer and safer with no boobs. I do not have implants and the fake boobs sit on my closet shelf. I just throw on a t shirt and i am good to go, at 60 and overweight no one is checking out my form anyway. And comfort is the name of the game. But I do remember when I had boobs to put in a bra and it was always a stuggle. Wish there was an easy answer.

The ones I like the most and are most reasonable priced, but everyone is shaped differently - but i"m a bit oversized, and love the JCPenneys brand name bra that the last time I bought one was 3 years ago -wear like iron - keep their shape, and are comfortable, adjustable and did I say the price is right- was at that time about $ 7.99 +/-. I don't like the rounded or molded look - a bit more protruding, but not overly - just sort of the perfect look since I have a bigger front - it still makes me "look like I have a waist, but don't!" lol

Haven't found any comfortable bras here yet but keep trying. Marks and Spencers in the Uk was always my best bet and very pretty too. Oh well, just have to keep shopping :)

I can't do wires either, I will never wear another bra except for the Ahh bra. I can't believe more people on here hasn't tried them. I have 4 so far but I'm going to order more of them.

Finally I just knew someone else would have tried & loved these too! I have six of them & I wear them 2 at a time ( for more support) but I LOVE them! I am a 42DD & CAN'T do underwires! LOVE them I HIGHLY reccomend them!

Go to www.HerRoom.com There is a really good tute on how to measure for the correct size.... just a good way to figure out what your size really is.
They also have good prices on their products. I bought pajamas for $22.50 that are $32 in stores.
Good luck. I am looking for a good one myself. You can change sizes. I had wire bras..uncomfortable. good luck
