You know your sport bra needs to be replaced if....
-It is more than 1yr old, and it no longer maintains its shape
-You wear 2 at one time to control the bounce
-You struggle with a style that pulls over your head
In general Sport bras work on compression. The well- engineered ones have cups, adjustable straps, and close in the back. The fabric is moisture wicking, so they are more comfortable and supportive than your everyday bra. They are also can be sized like regular bras for a more customized fit.
Here are some examples of styles we think work very well.
Wacoal has a style that is unique. It is sized in regular bra sizes 32-40 bands, and C-H cups. It has a underwire, so your breasts separate however, the wire is on the outside for comfort! The inside is smooth seam free and moisture wicking.
Anita makes several excellent sports bras. This one is for high impact control with seams not wires. The inside of the bra is lined with seamless moisture wicking fabric. It is also sized in regular bra sizes 30-46 bands, and B-H cups.
The Enell sports bra is a hybrid specialty sport bra, it is sized a bit differently in ranges 32-52 bands and C- DDD cups, incorporated into sizes 00-8 it is best to be fitted for this bra, if need be they can custom make a bra for you.
Moving Comfort also makes several excellent hi-impact sport bras. The one- pictured " Rebound Racer" a more traditional racer-back style, also comes in Bra sizes B-DD cup, 30-38 bands. Even though it is a racer-back, it offers a customized fit with front adjustable straps and an adjustable keyhole back closure.
In my next blog I will discuss some of the lower impact and smaller cup size options.
