I gave up on cuteness a long time ago.
However, I do not like regular bras that look like they are to be worn only by really prissy and uptight women.
Sports bras are all about function while still looking cool. My style is more Artemis than Aphrodite anyway

The back closure ones I own have thick straps, a thick band, and just 2 rows of hooks in the back. I buy them 36D rather than 36C because I prefer the way they fit (more like my other sports bras instead of a regular bra)- but in most other brands I'm certainly 36C, since that is my objective size using the measurement test.
