The Runderwear Tempo Running Bra, priced at £55, is being hailed by runners with larger busts as a comfortable and supportive option that reduces chafing and bounce. Shoppers have described the bra as a "game changer" and "absolutely worth every single penny."
The bra combines high-impact support with a chafe-free fit designed to reduce bounce without limiting mobility. Its seamless construction helps avoid digging and friction, allowing runners to focus on their stride.
Design and Features
The Tempo Running Bra includes soft moulded cups that provide structure without feeling cumbersome, plus adjustable straps so runners can tailor the fit. It also features a convertible racer-back style and cushioned shoulder straps, offering freedom of movement with no pressure, digging or pulling.
The bra comes in 13 sizes, accommodating band sizes 32-38 and cup sizes C-E. Runderwear also offers a Perfect Fit Promise, which includes complimentary delivery, free exchanges and specialist fitting guidance. A breathable mesh panel maintains air circulation as body temperature rises, while the moisture-wicking material pulls perspiration away from the skin. A double clasp fastening makes the bra easier to put on and remove after intense workouts.
Materials and Alternatives
The bra is made with 92% recycled polyamide and 8% recycled elastane. The high-stretch material is designed to maintain its shape and elasticity even after repeated use and washing.
Other high-support options include the Lululemon Run Times Bra, available in cups B to G for £58, and the Nike Rival, priced at £79.99. For a lower price point, the Under Armour Women's Infin High 2 Bra is available for £38 at Amazon.
Shopper Feedback
Buyer Charlotte said: "The Bra's are great. For someone with larger breasts, the bras are comfortable and supportive for running without feeling like my chest and ribs are being compressed. I would however, follow the usual sports bra rules and go up a back size as this sports bra like others sits lower on the rib cage than a conventional bra."
Sion added: "Over recent years I have ran multiple long distance races and experienced terrible chafe, I didn't think anything would help after trying so many different bras and anti-chafe creams/ bars. I wore the Runderwear bra for the first time for the race (I know) but it actually worked. Had the least amount of chafing I've ever had after a long distance run. Absolutely worth every single penny and my only regret is not purchasing the bra sooner."
Tracy commented: "Absolutely love this bra; made the switch from Shock Absorber and glad I did. The sizing is spot on, it fits like a dream, feels wonderful and no bounce or roll ups- will buy more and wish I had bought it before. Very pleased and really would recommend."
Kat said: "The only sports bra that just fits right. Every single bra I tried (and there are a lot!) caused chafing near my armpits. This doesn't and it's so easy to get on and off. Absolute game changer and worth every penny!"
Roseanne was less impressed with delivery times, noting: "I bought a bra for running. Took a very long time to arrive which has put me off ordering from Runderwear again. But the running bra is great."
