A good sports bra provides superior breast support, comfort, breathability and moisture control. There are two essential pieces for active women: 1. A Sports Bra 2. Shoes; Women should be fit for a bra at least once a year; The average life span of a sports bra is 6-12 months; and: Not all bras are created equal. A good sports bra minimizes breast movement in one of two ways: By compression, where the breasts are held against the chest wall to limit motion; or encapsulation, in which the bra is engineered to surround and support the breasts. Sometimes one bra uses both techniques. Sports bra fit tips A good sports bra should fit more snugly than a lingerie bra to provide you with support but should not be uncomfortable or restrict movement or breathing. Keep in mind not every bra will fit every woman. Different activities result in different degrees of breast movement. The higher the impact level, the more support you’ll need. A good sports bra should feel comfortable on, stay in place, and not chafe. The straps shouldn’t dig into the shoulders and the band around the lower chest shouldn’t shift or bind. Try on different styles to find out what you like best. Run in place, swing your arms side to side to make sure what feels good on is comfortable and supportive when you’re in motion Fleet Feet Sports is here to help you with sports bra needs. |
