I have, and they are not great for big boobs. I am the same bra size as you and breastfeed, and I have to wear two to three sports bras for any vigorous exercise. I wouldn't say they are necessarily worse than other brands I've tried, but if you are looking for lots of support, VS is probably not the way to go.

i haven't bought one lately but i recently wore one i have that is very similar [same material, just a slightly different style from a couple of years ago] to the 'body wick' bras i saw in the store the other day. they have a lot of good colors to choose from in the store, an entire rainbow, which is why i noticed them in the first place.

i only wear a B-C so i don't need support like you do but i really love mine.

In all my years playing sports and running I have never found a sports bra that worked as well as two cheap Champions layered on top of one another. DH got me a couple Under Armor bras that look like mini artillery tanks and I still have to put a regular old Champion bra on underneath to keep the bouncing under control.

I have a coupon for a free VS sports bra so I'll get one just for kicks, but I imagine it will still need an extra layer of love to be functional.

I have a larger chest (D-DD) and really like Lane Bryant for bras.  They start at size 36, I think.  The ones I have bought have lasted forever and have much better support than the VS bras I have tried.

ETA:  I just realized you asked about SPORTS bras, sorry.  I normally just buy the running bras at Target and double up.  I often buy a size or two smaller than my shirt size and that seems to help.

I'm a 32-34DD so I too have had a horrible time trying to find a supportive sports bra for higher impact exercise. I think I probably went through 3-4 brands that were horrible before trying Moving Comfort (the Fiona version specifically). Moving Comfort bras are the only bras I can comfortably run in and not have the bouncing motion. They are a bit more expensive (about $40 I think) but it is worth it to be able to run comfortably.

I am the same size as you are and I really like the Shock Absorber brand.  You can find them on amazon.  I don't move at all!!
