Finding quality and affordable workout tops for women can be a challenge. Today, I’m sharing the best workout tops for large breasts that are budget-friendly, good quality, and performance-minded. Let’s discuss some of the best large bust outfit options including workout tank tops, long sleeve workout tops, running tops for large busts, cute workout tops for athleisure, and the best bras for large busts.

I love athleisure fashion. The best thing about life post-2020 in my opinion is the trend toward more athleisure fashion. I find that at work, at parties and events, and even just in everyday living, workout fashion is highly accepted and even considered stylish and cute these days!
The ’90s baby in me that experienced the breakthrough of leggings as a fashion for the first time in 8th grade is squealing (do we remember when people did not consider leggings as pants because I am not here for that).
Let’s discuss some big bust friendly athleisure outfits that are cute, functional, and affordable.

Workout Tops for Large Breasts
1. Workout Tank Tops
Workout tank tops are the best. They’re practical for everyday wear, functional in the gym, and cute for athleisure workout fashion.
I find that workout tank tops for large breasts are one of those clothing items that you can actually spend a little less on and still be totally okay in terms of quality and functionality.
The Gap, Old Navy, and Athleta are awesome brands that I go to first for workout tops because they always have sales. The Gap’s Brushed Jersey Tank Top and Old Navy UltraLite Sleeveless Tunic Top for Women are similar in quality and price and a great workout top option.
I also think Gymshark sells really high-quality clothing for the price and I love their matching sets. The Gymshark Sweat Seamless Midi Tank and the Elevate Asymmetric Tank are both great options for bigger-busted women because of their athletic materials and thick straps.
When I’m shopping for workout tank tops, here are 5 things I look for in an athleisure tank top:
Workout Tank Tops Must-haves
1.) Thick straps (ideally 1 inch or more. This helps with shoulder discomfort + sideboob)
2.) Quality materials (ideally performance materials such as nylon, spandex, polyester, etc.)
3.) Price (anywhere from $10-$35 is what I’d spend on a tank top)
4. Sales (I find that you can snag a quality tank top on sale and get a lot of bang for your buck)
5.) Fit (It’s important to look for full coverage, athletic tank tops, espeicially if you’re shopping for performance!)
2. Long Sleeve Workout Tops
I really think Gymshark steals the show when it comes to affordable and high-quality long sleeve workout tops for women.
I love that they offer their workout pieces in so many colors and styles. They also have really affordable prices for activewear. If you can get in early, and snag your size on a sale, I don’t think it gets better than that!
Gymshark’s workout tops are high quality, attractive, and big-bust friendly.
If you’re an American gal like me and not quite ready to take the plunge on a U.K. brand because #WeHatePayingForShipping then I think Target’s All in Motion activewear line has some super cute and affordable workout tops.
I especially love Target’s Women’s Active Long Sleeve Top – All in Motion™ for running. It’s cute, functional, and made from a soft, moisture-wicking, quick-drying fabric.
I’d personally stay away from the All in Motion’s sports bras for big busts. I tried them out, you can check out this YouTube video here of my review of a few of their bras. I personally just didn’t find them to be functional for big busts and I’d rather spend an extra $20-$30 on a Lululemon bra that will last.
3. Running Tops for Large Bust
I think Gymsharks long sleeve workout tops could be awesome running tops for running as well. But, it’s important to have variety in your workout wardrobe, so let’s chat about a few of my favorite running tops for large bust.
I’ll be honest – in the summertime, I don’t bother to put a running top on. I stick with just a sports bra because it’s so hot and humid where I’m from. But, sometimes, we’re in public and we prefer to look a little more fashionable or have a modest activewear appearance.
When I’m searching for running tops, unless it’s negative degrees outside, I’m always looking for performance materials that are lightweight and breathable.
If a classic, fitted t-shirt is your jam, Old Navy has some awesome pieces. Their Fitted Seamless Performance T-Shirt for Women is affordable, cute, and big-bust friendly.
I also love just a classic, long-sleeve performance tee. Aside from Old Navy, I think DSG has some awesome deals on workout clothes. Check out this DSG Women’s Run Long Sleeve Shirt which is perfect for fall and spring outdoor runs.
If you can snag a Lululemon long-sleeve workout top on sale, the Swiftly Tech Long Sleeve Shirt 2.0 Race Length would be another awesome option to add to your wardrobe.
When I’m feeling a bit bloated, I like to stay away from tighter tops just because they don’t make me feel super confident, especially with having larger breasts. That’s when a nice, loose-fitting t-shirt comes into play.
Under Armours’s Women’s UA Tech™ Vent Short Sleeve is the perfect combination of cute workout tops and functional running tops for everyday wear. I love that it’s looser fitting, big-bust friendly, and goes with just about any outfit.
When it doubt, throwing a longline sports bra like Old Navy’s Light Support PowerChill Longline Sports Bra Tank for Women over a supportive sports bra for big bust never fails to be fashionable and big bust friendly.
4. Cute Workout Tops – Workout Fashion
My favorite thing about cute workout tops is that they’re so versatile. You can pair a workout top with nearly any outfit and put together a cute outfit for big busts that is fashionable, comfortable, and functional.
I’m a big fan of Old Navy’s Oversized UltraLite All-Day Performance T-Shirt for Women simply because I think the oversized t-shirt looks can balance out a tighter pair of leggings very seamlessly.
I also think a more tasteful, v-neck shirt like Athleta’s Shanti Lace Top can look really feminine and athletic, especially if you’re not planning to exercise in this workout top.
Ribbed fabrics are in style. I love that you can pass a ribbed crop top as a sports bra or a tank top for everyday wear. This can help make your wardrobe go further. Athleta’s Aurora Seamless Crop Rib Tank is the perfect workout top to pair with leggings or a loose-fitting jogger for days when you’re just looking to lay around and have a chill day.
Here are a few other cute workout tops ideas that would go great with these outfits for big busted women:
5. Best Bras For Large Bust
If you’re like me, if it’s hot outside and I’m exercising, the idea of a workout top goes out the window and I’m only here to shop for a high quality, supportive sports bra for big busts I’m not afraid for my neighbors to see me running in.
I am a huge fan of Lululemon’s sports bras. They’re soooo expensive, but they’re high quality and they last. Here are a few that you’ll see me raving about on the blog.
If you’re bigger than a E (DD) cup, and you struggle with breast pain during exercise, check out SheFit’s Ultimate Sports bra for big busts – you won’t be disappointed.
You can also watch a full, inp-depth review of this sports bra on my YouTube channel.
There you have it ladies, workout tops for large breasts that are cute, functional, and affordable. My favorite thing about workout tops is you really don’t have to spend an arm and a leg (unlike sports bras for big busts) to get a good-quality workout top.
