Well, we’re here to tell you that’s not the case.
We think you’ll find at least onebut probably morethat suit your needs.
Jump up and down, do a few jumping jacks, twist side to side, run in place.
Pay attention to the bra’s neckline (V-neck, high-neck, scoop neck, etc.
), strap width and placement (racerback, cross-back, etc.
), and hemline (longline, regular bra length, etc.
), which will all play into how comfortable, secure, and functional the bra is.
Medium-impact support bras are great forstrength trainingor other workouts that might contain cardio without inducing lots of breast movement.
In a high-impact support bra, you should have almost no breast movement.
In addition to varying levels of impact support, bras also come in a wide range of sizes.
It should fit, not squish.
We love to judge sports bras by how easy they are to take off and put on too.
Does it feel like it’s cutting off your circulation when you slide it over your head?
Does it have a traditional hook-and-loop closure at the back?
Or does it have a convenient zip front?
Maybe you dislike zip frontsthat’s important to know too!
you could check the fabric of the bra to see how well it might manage sweat.
In addition to setting parameters around when items launched, we also introduced an inclusive-sizing eligibility requirement.
