Whether you’re a triathlete, a yoga enthusiast, or have just started running, you need a supportive sports bra that will allow you to be comfortable no matter the activity. Not every sports bra is built the same, however. They come in different styles, materials, and qualities. If you’re looking for supportive sports bras that are both comfortable and stylish, we have a few excellent suggestions for you here!
Qualities to Look For in Supportive Sports Bras
Not every brand is equal when it comes to sports bras. You need to find a company that truly cares about women’s comfort and performance. Here at Anita Active, we specialize in activewear made specifically for women of body types, ranging in sizes and styles because we know everyone is different when it comes to their shape, activities, and aesthetics.
Our sports bras all have adjustable bra straps. This ensures that the sports bra can be customized for your specific support and comfort level. You can avoid straps digging into your skin or loose areas around your breasts. After months of wearing, straps can lose elasticity and it’s great to be able to adjust the bra straps to keep them effective for longer. Our flat adjustable sliders on the strap are designed to stay put without having to readjust.
All of our Sports Bras come in cup and band sizes. You’ve probably noticed that some other brands just come in alpha sizes, i.e. small, medium, and large. Going for a brand with cup and band sizes ensures a much more personalized fit. We allow women to pick the cup and band size, making sure it fits as accurately as possible.
You also want to get a sports bra that’s made with breathable material that will help you to avoid rashes and chafing. The sports bra should have a sweat management system like our soft micro terry wicking fabric that lines the inside of many of our sports bras and provides quick drying.
