SPORTS BRAS
Exercising without the support you need causes naturally irreparable damage to the breast tissue and ligaments, leading to pain, discomfort and premature sagging. Wearing a sports bra reduces breast movement by a minimum of 75%, making it an essential part of your kit.
Low Impact
Suitable for low intensity activities including pilates, yoga and hiking.
Low Impact
When taking part in low impact activities, such as yoga or pilates, the breast is subject to minimal vertical and lateral movement, however, you will still require a low level of support in order to prevent damage to the breast tissue and ligaments. Women with larger breasts will need the support of a medium or high impact bra irrespective of the activity.
Shop Low ImpactMedium Impact
Suitable for medium intensity activities including cycling, boxing and cardio classes.
Medium Impact
Designed to be worn during activities that produce a moderate degree of vertical and lateral breast movement, a medium impact sports bra delivers the support you need without restricting your range of motion. Compression and/or encapsulation provide support by minimising breast movement and reducing the strain placed on the tissue and ligaments.
Shop Medium ImpactHigh Impact
Suitable for high intensity activities including running, tennis and football.
High Impact
Regardless of cup size, when taking part in high impact activities the breast is subjected to three-dimensional movement, which requires a bra that provides maximum support. Often combining both compression and encapsulation, high impact sports bras reduce both vertical and lateral breast movement without restricting your range of motion.
Shop High ImpactTHE BAND
Often most comfortable when fastened on the middle hook, you’re looking for a snug feel that isn’t too tight. The band should be level front and back and if it rides up or chafes then the bra is too loose.
FITTING GUIDE
THE CUPS
The perfect-fitting sports bra should fully contain your breasts. If there is cleavage on show or breast tissue escaping at the sides then the cup size is probably too small, whereas wrinkled or gaping fabric indicates the bra is too big.
Shop All BrasTHE STRAPS
Adjustable or not, the straps should fit securely on your shoulders without slipping off or digging in. If it feels like the majority of support is coming from the straps, it is a sign you may need a smaller band size.
