    Good Compression Bras ?

    Hi All, My Girlfriend is looking for a good compression bra as she's fairly gifted in the chest region (10DD-10E). Basically she wants to get to a running stage but isn't comfortable because of too much bouncing for lack of better words. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks Girls.
