How was it for you?: Finally a sports bra that not only claims to be supportive but also looks attractive. On one side the bra is white, with a central black inlay. When you reverse it you have an all-black bra. So no matter what you’re wearing this bra will fit in.
The support is not one of Shock Absorber’s highest levels but I always wear a sports top with built-in bra over my sports bras so I felt no bounce at all. I’m also small-chested (34A), so for larger ladies I’d suggest finding an alternative Shock Absorber that has a support level of three or four.
The bra was completely comfy: I felt no rubs and the wick-away fabric worked exactly as it should. Ideal.
Technical stuff
Easy-on reversible bra. Meryl Actisystem high performance fibres for comfort. Lightweight, quick drying performance fabric.
