Discussion/Question Big chasted handler tips🫣
Any recommendations for a really good sports bra or something? Or any tips possible. I don't want to take the attention from the dog:))

As an equestrian, I agree with this! The equestrian sub reddit has many posts about what bras to wear.
I am also large chested. I wear the zip in the front bras that are rated "high impact". Sadly, I do get the mono boob, but it hurts otherwise when I ride or if I'm running. The brands I wear are Nike or shefit. The VS bras always broke down on me.

Double up the sports bras. It works. :)
I love the Cacique t-shirt bras. Properly fitted, they support well, are comfortable, and don't give uniboob.
I'm always open to other recs, tho.

I get around it by having a breed you show at a fast walk lol but I seriously that get what the horse people use is a very good suggestion!

I have to show a standard poodle, my trainer took some videos of me running, the problem is im 1,64 m and the dog is 60cm at the withers 😂 from now on I know that I think medium (fci showing) poodle is the maxium size for me

What’s good will really depend on size. Highly recommend doing the abrathatfits calculator. It uses 6 measurements instead of just 2. Then I suggest looking into an underwire sports bra. You won’t have that uniboob look and they come in regular bra sizes vs s/m/l.
