Serial Underwire Snapping

I always have problems with my large breasts (currently measured about 42DDD, although that's probably wrong since the bras I have don't fit very well) snapping the underwires on my bras when I move. I'm a very active person, and it's gotten to the point where I can't afford to just buy a new one every time I snap one so I tend to just push the broken wire back in and duct tape the little hole shut. But I can't really live like that anymore. What do I do?

  • I'm not quite sure what to do, other than get you in a properly sized bra, which we can certainly help with. You also can sew the wire on both sides to keep it from sliding around, often the wire channel is is longer than the wire so perhaps sewing it smaller would help?

  • It could be the size, the brand, or both. The bras that I wear now that I'm in the right size are much sturdier than my previous ones anyway.
