I've been looking at the Under Armour Endure High-Impact Bra which has a zipper up the front. My first concern would be chaffing where the zipper is, the second, the actual zipper coming down. Reviews seem to be positive overall with some claiming there are some zipper issues.

What sports bra for running do you recommend?
 
I had a zip up one for a short period of time, but not UA. The zipper never came down, but I did have some chaffing. It was the under part of the zipper where the extra material was.

The one I use now for running is Moving Comfort. It clasps in the back w/ 4hooks and has velcro straps that hold up really well. I larger up top and it holds me in really well and I really like it.
 
I wear two types of Champions, the zip-up and the T-back. I went with the Champion instead of the UA, because the Champion has a strip of material behind the zipper to prevent chaffing. The zipper hasn't ever come down and I have not had a problem with chaffing. I actually like the T-back better for running. I feel like there is less movement. I use the zip-up for step.
 
I wear the Target C9 brand, but I am a small older runner! My daughter just bought a Moving Comfort bra and they seem to get great reviews for more endowed ladies. Try a few different ones until you find the one that works....then stock up! ;)
 

I'm a C, and I've worn the Target C9 ones that hook in the back for riding (if I can sit a trot in them chances are nothing's going anywhere), the lululemon ta ta tamer was a bit of a splurge and I like that one for running. It fits more like a regular bra with straps you can cross or leave uncrossed and I actually wear it sometimes like a regular bra... And I have another good one for running that I got at (of all the places) the Gap, their high impact bra. I've never had any chafing problems with any of them and they've been keeping the girls in line.

I can see where you're coming from with the zipper...
 
I am very large on top and in my Moving comfort bra the girls do not move at all. Before I swear they bounced from my knees to my forehead.

I many times will wear this as my regular bra also. Very comfortable. Matter of fact I am wearing it today and after the powerwalk at Disney this morning and 8 hours in the park I m still very comfortable in it. :love:
 
Another vote for moving comfort
 
I like Moving Comfort as well, though they changed the design slightly so I can only guess what model mine is. The name isn't printed on my current bra.
 
I was on the quest for a good sports bra about a year ago. I tried several brands and types. I've decided the best for me is the Moving Comfort Rebound Racer. Moving Comfort has several styles, but some are only for moderate impact or only sized sm/med/lg. I've also figured out that you really need the proper size or a bra that has the potential to be great is not going to perform well. I wear a 32D (professionally sized) in my everyday bras. At first I tried a 34D in the Moving Comfort because the 32D wasn't big enough. It was okay, but then I tried a 32DD - perfect. It can be a little bit of a struggle to get on, but once everything is in place it feels great. When you get up to a certain size, I don't think you can keep the girls totally immobile. But with this bra I don't notice any movement.
 
I found mine at a local running store. They have different styles so I would recommend trying them on to find the best fit for you.
 
I use the C9 seamless and I LOVE it. I tried another Champion version that has hook and loop and it really bothered my neck. I move a little more freely in the C9, but it's a lot more comfortable and the moving isn't that big of a problem.
 
I also like the C9 from target granted I wear 2 when I run. that goes back to my college soccer days and it works the best for me and I'm a 34D.
 
C9 from Target. Bought them when I was bigger.....oh why do the ta tas have to shrink so much with weight loss :worried:.....they still do fine though. I also have a few old ones that I had put away in the back of the drawer because they were too small. They work just fine now, but I have no idea what brand any are. :lmao:
