Read Shock Absorber Reviews

Designed specifically for runners, the award-winning Ultimate RUN bra reduces bounce by up to 78%* and provides ultimate friction-free comfort.
Infinity-8 support system counteracts the breasts figure-of-eight movement during running
Soft, seamless inner reduces rubbing or chafing
Non-slip, wide padded adjustable straps
Reflective tape across cups for high visibility
Full back opening for easy on and off
Made from moisture-wicking, breathable fabric, sports performance fabrics
*University of Portsmouth 2009 (Scurr et al); testing carried out against "no bra" conditions.
REASON WHY & BENEFITS:
Extreme bounce control thanks to the Infinity 8 support system (or “combination”: compression + encapsulation) based on 3 layers:
Inner one-piece front panel to compress both breast together.
Middle part with Simplex to encapsulate each breast separately.
Outer cut & sewn construction to compress both breast together.
Up to 78.6% of bounce reduction*.
Full adjustment: double back fastening with a back clasp positioned at an ergonomic point of the body to full the cups towards the back & thus fix the breasts.
Winner 5 years in a row at The Running Awards and highly recommended in the 2021 Health & Wellbeing Awards
Bra Features: Regular Back, Non-padded, Comfort, Easy On/Off
 
Sizing Tip: This style can come up small. We find it best to try a band size up from your normal size. This means if you normally wear a 34D, we recommend trying a 36D.
 
Item code: S5044

Best thing is the adjustable band at the back, it’s the only sports bra that with my size can’t get secure enough over my shoulders

I love these bras, they are honestly the best on the market. But they no longer come in larger sizes. Ironic, because larger-size women need to exercise. A great sadness. Now I'm gonna have to shop around inferior sports bra manufacturers to find something as good as shock Absorber Ultimate Run Bra.

When tightened up and standing still, it’s great, but as soon as I run, every time I run, the clips on the shoulder straps pop out meaning that you are no longer supported. Don’t buy this style, get one that isn’t adjustable! I bought two of them (pricey!) but wish I’d gone with a different bra. I have never had this experience with Shock Absorber before, they’re normally brilliant! I don’t think it’s the right style for ladies with a larger bust (38E)
