Victoria’s Secret Sports Bras

By Laura Moncur @ 5:00 pm — Filed under:

Sports Bras aren’t supposed to be sexy. They’re supposed to hold things down and prevent chafing.

Considering that all Victoria’s models are so obviously fake, why would they even need sports bras? Fake boobs stay aloft on their own. It’s us girls with the real thing that need sports bras.

I have all this anger at this move by Victoria’s Secret, but I do love their bras. Their underwire bras are the first I’ve ever enjoyed wearing. Why do I feel like they are completely unprepared to take care of me when I’m running 6 mph?

I guess it’s the advertising. I see those models and they don’t look fit and strong to me. They look fake and emaciated.

Try again Victoria…

    In the pic with this article the model has string bean arms. She doesn’t even need boxing gloves, I bet she couldn’t know out a fly.

    We buy Victoria’s Secret products because they are comfortable, because we look beautiful in them, because we feel sexy in them and because we feel a little naughty in them.

    Victoria’s Secret Sports Bras: Sexy, comfortable, compressing, trendy colors, eight versions, including one with a padded plunge and convertible racer back………..I’ll take two please with a pair of matching sweat pants.

    The model may or may not be athletic, but the picture definitely sales the garment.

    I got thin now I want to be athletic. I think they’d do better getting real women in sports to be the models.

    I wear a size 36 C and everytime I run I have to wear 2 sports bras to avoid the dreaded “bounce”. I bought a VS sports bra and it honestly holds me in and I don’t have to wear 2 for the first time. I love this bra and would swear by it! The only reason I bought it though was because it was on the sale rack for $9.99! Now I would pay full price!

    It s funny how the first person comments about Victoria Secret models being fake. Yes the glitz and glamour is there don’t get me wrong, the extensions, body make-up and angles, but Victoria Secret models don’t have fake boobs. There is only one model that has them that’s been in the fashion show. They are just gorgeous women who look fantastic. These people do exist, and there is no need to be jealous. She obviously works out as well, and is probably in great condition!

    Actually, if you visit one of the new Victoria Secret Sport (VSX) stores, you will find that the entire store is built around female athletes from the local area. They took REAL women, asked for REAL feedback on the items and then highlighted the women in the stores. How do I know? I am one. I am 40 years old and a single mom of four kids…believe me ~ you can’t get more real than that!

    Hi, I was just reading through some of the comments that were being made and was just looking for some insight from women that are shopping for VSX athletic wear. From a consumer perspective when you go into the store what are you looking for?! What catches your eye? What would make your VSX shopping experience better?! The products are great! I’m just wondering what else on a more personal shopping level are people looking for. I’d appreciate any feedback, thanks!

    It a shame victora secret thinks all woman are a model. I found one large vsx bra in the store and love it. The store and the catalog do not have anymore. Is their any one who knows where to find a large atheltic bra.

    I had perky full boobs before I choose to get them augmented- yes, “fake tits” although they feel very much mine to me. I needed support before, and I still need support now. Not all boob jobs are the super-fake-perky-without-a-bra type. That’s just what most people are exposed to. Take a look at Dita Von Tease topless if you want a good example.

    There are VS that are augmented. It is what it is- most women (but not all!) that thin don’t have much tissue. They tend to use smaller implants, though, as do run-way models. There are fake small B cups out there.

    you are an IDIOT. MOST women dont just NOT wear a bra if they have fake boobs. such a statement is foolish and clearly ignorant. I have implants (which NO ONE ever guesses) im 5’10, 126 lbs and NEED a sports bra. thank you very much. you must be angry b/c you have fat real giggly gross boobs.

    Victoria’s secret models are serious athletes. Did you ever see Adriana Lima box. Well you should because she boxes like a professional. I know people have been saying that Adriana, and Gisele have fake boobs, but the fact is that they are now mothers. And when you’re pregnant your boobs get bigger. My friend’s mom was a B before her baby and now is a D. just saying
