End the painful bouncing and too-tight feeling once and for all!

Sports bras are comfy and amazing—except when they’re not. Think: when they’re actually not supporting anything, and you’re 10 minutes into a workout and already adjusting your straps and experiencing chafing. I mean, it’s an accomplishment in itself that you got out of your warm bed and made it to that morning Pilates class, so the last thing you want is to be uncomfortable the entire time. There are tons of sports bras out there you can choose from depending on your cup and band size, workout type (e.g., low or high intensity), or style preferences (racerback, longline, underwire, etc.), but to make your life easier, we rounded up ones with the best customer reviews. (Even better? Pair them with cute leggings from these brands.)

This list has designs from Lululemon to Amazon brands in almost all sizes and colors for every kind of activity, so you can feel supported in one that fits you perfectly. Wear these styles when you’re running (here’s a playlist for ya), working on your abs (try this 30-day challenge!), or simply doing some much-needed morning stretches.

PS: If you want more sports bra content, we've got a boatload for ya! From the best zip-front sports bras to the ones that you absolutely need for high-impact, you're sure to find what you like and need. Ahead, check out some of the best sports bras to shop right now. There's def a sweat-ready style (or two, or three...) you'll want to slip into ASAP!

Sometimes, you just don’t want to wrestle with a sports bra by pulling the tight fabric over your head and around your boobs. That’s where a hook-and-eye closure can make a major difference. This style features that handy (pun intended) feature, along with a cute, strappy back design. It's great for medium- and low-impact workouts, like hiking and yoga. Plus, it goes up to size 5XL.

If you’re looking for something to give you a little lift:

I absolutely love this bra! I am a 32 DD and have one in a size 6 for workouts and then two in a size 8 for lounging around. They are so comfortable while still providing lots of support. I would definitely recommend this!

Boxing, sprinting, dancing, and other high-impact sports are a breeze in this super supportive bra that works just as well as wearing two at the same time. It comes in a ton of cute colors and goes up to size XXL (40DD).

If you’re looking for medium-intensity support:

For medium-impact workouts like jogging and hiking, this simple, but still stylish ombré piece seems to do the job. It comes in a variety of colors and goes from S to XL.

If you're looking for something durable and chic:

Especially on women with larger busts, sports bras can create a lot of unwanted cleavage action. If that’s not your go-to gym look, you’ll want a bra like this one with a built-in modesty panel that still looks cute. Bonus: This bra is super supportive, even in higher-intensity workouts, and promises no bouncing. Goes up to size 50J.

In my opinion, everything should be adjustable. This bra has a hook-and-eye closure at the back and comes with straps that you can adjust to make it tighter across your chest. It also goes up in size to 46I.

Love this bra! My boobs stay in place and this style is so beautiful. I love all the colors; I bought the other 6 colors and 2 different styles. Definitely worth buying! It doesn't even feel like you're wearing anything!

Function doesn’t always have to be top of mind when buying a sports bra, especially if you’re more into lower-intensity workouts, like yoga. This T-back style is super cute and comes in 14 different colors and in sizes XS through XXL.

Mesh paneling and lots of cleavage are what this bra is about, so if that sounds like you, step right up. This style also comes in three cute colors and goes from XS to XL.

Putting on a sports bra and taking it off are some of the most frustrating parts about wearing one at all. A zipper-front closure solves that problem for you and this one comes in a cute patterned style and goes up to size 5XL. It also has tons of support.

Listen, if you’ve already got a ton of sports bras and you’re not looking to buy more but you want something that will improve their performance, this band is the product for you. Secure it so it lays across the upper part of your chest and around your back—it will provide extra support.

We all know how integral our sports bras are when it comes to working out. To ensure you look and feel your best, here's what you should keep an eye out for:

Say it with me: "moisture-wicking material is our friend." Sweat stains and bacteria be gone! Make sure you wash after every use, BTW. Breathable fabrics are also a win. Though cotton is known for their breezy feel, it'll cling to ya when you sweat. Instead, go for nylon or polyester.

If you wanna move freely, then adjustable straps are key. Some days you may want the strap to hang a lil tighter (HIIT workouts, we're lookin' at you) and you're gonna need the flexibility to fix your straps to best support you. It's a plus if the bra band is adjustable, too!

Ultimately, you know what you like. Whether you want a funky design, something chic, or minimalistic, go towards what you're most drawn to. And don't forget to have fun with it!
