I'm a shopping expert and this $20 Amazon sports bra for large busts is my fave

·4-min read

If you're someone with a bigger chest, finding a good sports bra is practically impossible. I know, because I've tried them all — wire-free, underwire, extra-supportive, racer-back, criss-cross, you name it. And in addition to the fact that these undergarments tend to be extremely uncomfortable (something akin to a panini press for the boobs), they also happen to skew super expensive. The icing on the cake is that they're generally ugly too. But there is one sports bra, the Lemedy Padded Sports Bra, that a friend (who's shaped like me) raves about. She found it, believe it or not, at Amazon. And she's not the only fan. The Lemedy Sports Bra has been going viral on TikTok, solving problems for busty exercisers everywhere. Though I was skeptical (how can thin straps like that hold up during a workout?), I finally ordered one. Depending on the color, it costs between $13 and $20, so I figured it was a worthy gamble. Spoiler alert: I'm in love with this bra.

Dear reader, let me tell you: The moment I tried it on, I was intrigued. The Lemedy Sports Bra not only holds you in and supports you like a hug, but it actually makes the girls look good, too. It's lightly padded, so even if you're not packing too much, it'll give you a bit of a lift (and you can remove the pads if you like). It's soft and breathable.

And about those straps? I was thrilled to discover they don't dig in to the shoulders or leave red marks. After working out in it, I immediately bought another color. One note: Consider going up a size, especially if you have a larger bust.

The bra is available in 20 colors ranging from neutrals to pastels, and it's amassed quite the following. Not only has it been trending on TikTok for how supportive and cute it is, but it's also amassed 38,000+ five-star reviews on Amazon.

"This is the perfect workout tank!" one shopper raved. "Good support...It’s super flattering and a perfect length for anything high-waisted. I’d even wear this as a going-out top!"

Another agreed: "I absolutely love this sports bra/crop tank. It's perfect for bigger boobs! I can never find sports bras that support me fully, and this one does."

If you're self-conscious about your upper back or armpit area, this sports bra has earned the curvy-girl stamp of approval. Shares one: "I’m 5’5, around 150 lbs and have big boobs, and some back and armpit fat, so I usually struggle finding bras that I like. One of my biggest peeves is when the bra elastic cuts right through the armpit/back fat. These don’t do that. They’re perfect for curvy girls! I wear them with high-waisted leggings and the length, coverage and support are honestly great. I’ve tried all the brands out there and this bra is up there if not better than some of them. Do yourself a favor and just buy it. I’m obsessed and ordering it in three more colors."

While I wouldn't recommend this bra for running or any high impact sports, it's great for yoga, pilates, or weight training. Plus, you can wear it out or around the house; it's such a relief to have great support without that squashed sports bra feeling.

The ultimate praise comes from this reviewer, who says she prefers the Lemedy Sports Bra to her pricey Lululemon styles: "Hands down best crop ever! I usually buy Lululemon and this beats anything I’ve bought there. Quality is amazing.... I will be buying it in every color."

  • The Mega Tsunami that Smashed Western Australia & Drowned Perth

    5000 years ago, a comet broke apart into three pieces upon entry into Earth. The largest piece, smashed into the indian ocean, with the other two smaller pieces landing in different areas of the Pacific Ocean. The Indian Ocean impact, was incredibly disastrous. It landed in a very deep part of the ocean, and, as a result, it released a truly monstrous mega tsunami during impact. This tsunami was so disastrous, that 600 foot high mountains were built in Madagascar in the blink of an eye, when massive amount of churned up sediment that was carried by it, got deposited in truly vast quantities here, and everywhere else that this tsunami stuck, too, including very, very far places, such as Tasmania. When this Mega tsunami struck, it did so with such force, that it severely eroded entire cliff faces, and left deep gashing scars in the land, which document the direction the flow. Along with this, it also deposited something known as seismic chevrons. Which are arrow shaped hills of deposition, that were left after the wave had slammed into Australia. When it began to recede, all the material it carried was just dropped where it landed, and the water move out, but the sediment remained. Because of this, massive layers of sand were deposited, and even though 5000 years have passed, you can still see many places where this tsunami impacted. The entire western coast of Western Australia, and the southern coast of it, had towns that are built ontop of the sediment released by the mega tsunami, as this entire section of land was deeply affected by the 180 odd meter waves that struck here with savage force. Stretching inland as far as 30km in some places, and even further in others. In this video we take a look at how this massive tidal wave acted when it struck the land where the present day capital city of Western Australia, Perth, is built. Unfortunately, it's not good news. If this happened today... well... You know where I'm going with this. This is episode one of a large series I have planned that covers the mega tsunami chevron deposition left over following the mega tsunami. And I intend on travelling to all the affected continents to note the damage, and to cover the massive deluge that occurred later on, which is dated to have coincided with the onset of the biblical flood stories which are documented by over 150 different cultures worldwide.
