Has anyone found a good-quality sports / athletic bra that you actually like? I need one with adjustable straps and one that holds "me" fully in place (no bopping around)....I am a 36C for reference.  No underwires and.....I hate to say it, but price is NOT a factor if I can find a great sports bra. Any suggestions?

Girlfriend Collective dot com has a good selection of different styles, sizes and colors.  Just checked there and 30-50% sale is going on.  Good luck.

@Bella8888 @thank you for the suggestion. I checked out this site and, unfortunately, their sports bras do not have adjustable straps, which is a requirement for me (I tend to be short in the relevant body length if you understand). Buying a good sports bra is incredibly challenging.....for such an essential item.

I agree.  Took me months to find the right fit but did find one or two that fit on that site.  

Regarding straps, I am the opposite and long from the shoulder to 'under' area, so the girls tended to escape out of the coop because the straps are too short.  

 Life is SOOO HARD!   😂

Glamorise

Women's Double-Layer Custom-Control Sport Bra.  It  has the bottom area that flips up and has 3 different slots to hook into and really does keep you in and comfy.,

I've worn the Glamorise Full-Figure No-Bounce Camisole Wireless Sports Bra #1066 for years and love it. I wear a 42C and have bought it at Her Room, Amazon and Kohl's over the years. Prices vary, but I don't think I've spent more than $35 or $40 for them. I tried to copy a picture from the Kohl's website, but I couldn't get it to paste here. 

I've worn this bra while walking at a good pace in the neighborhood, on a treadmill and while using weight machines at the gym. It provides good coverage and great support without feeling like a binder. It washes well on the delicate cycle and hung up to air dry. Best of all - I don't bounce when I'm wearing it!

@Eileen in Virginia @Pook Thanks for the recommendation. I will look that one up.

@Goldengate8361   I'm a "D" cup. The absolute best sports bra for me is Glamorise.  I have different styles, including racer back which has the added benefit of back support.

They feel great, look great, and have wonderful support.

My cup size is large in relation to my chest and the only way to control the situation is underwire.  I know, I know .... but it is fact of life.  Some brands have lovely padding for the underwire.  Worth looking in to.

@Caaareful Shopper I actually just ordered a glamorize bra on Amazon a little earlier today based on the recs others posted here in this thread. It's going to be delivered by 10 pm today (gotta love Amazon quick deliveries!). I hope it works...sizing is hard enough with regular bras.... side note: "Glamorize" sure seems like an odd name for a sports bra that will be routinely sweaty, etc during workouts... haha
