They’re not based in South Yorkshire, but they are well worth a trip to Leeds, or at least a look on their website – Bravissimo. They specialise in bras in larger sizes. I bought an excellent sports bra from them a while back, which was an F cup. Check the website to see if they do your size, you can buy online, but it’s well worth going for a fitting as you may find you need a completely different size (they don’t measure – my sports bra fitting consisted of trying on the size I thought I was and then narrowing it down from there. Each new size I jumped up and down while the assistant checked for movement!).

Have u tried marks and spencers?? they have do alot more larger cup things now and i always get my sports bras from there. I would try the large meadowhall one!
Other than that braissimo is Nottingham, or department stores!

I have to say that when I shopped around for a sports bra a while back, that none of the high street stores did one in larger cups sizes that provided anywhere near enough support. Bravissimo was the only place that was any good.
M & S definitely do them - have a look at their website - there are several sports bras in the DD-G section - and delivery is very quick for internet orders

Try Lessbounce.com http://www.lessbounce.com/
They have lots of choice and you can read recommendations - they usually deliver in a couple of days too.
No more black eyes when running on the treadmill for me!
Yes ive used less bounce too. They are good

They’re fab aren’t they? They’re the only shop who have sold me a sports bra that actually stops virtually all bounce! As I said, I find that none of the high street stores sell sports bras in bigger sizes that provide anywhere near enough support. Did you have to do the jump test as well?

As a male runner it's not an area that I'm familiar with personally, although I appreciate the need for comfortable clothing for the female runner.
I subscribe to Runners World magazine and have noticed an advert aimed at what you 're after.

and let me know how you go on.
Good luck.
