Sports Bras

To find the perfect sports bra, it's important to consider the sports intensity you will be engaged in. For high intensity workouts (think HIIT, running, netball etc.)- look for bras designed to minimise bounce as you move around the gym, track or court! If you like to stretch out during a yoga or pilates class, a bra choice with support for low- or medium-intensity bra will be a great pick, like our sloggi Basic Sporty Padded Bra, which offers the perfect support for low intensity activities, there will be no bulky clips or textures to distract you when lying in Shavasana.

There is no hard-and-fast rule on how tight a sports bra should feel, but while you try out a design you should check for the support to your bust when in movement. Fitting advices for any bra should apply to a sports bra too.

Running is considered as a medium to high intensity sport so you will need a good bra that provides sufficient support while giving you the comfort - both the design and fabrics are important. Look for high impact bras designed to minimise bounce as you move, like our sloggi Basic Sport Padded Bra .

When you work out (whether it is during yoga or a HIIT class), extra pressure is placed on breasts ligaments. Straining these breasts ligaments can, well, lead to the much dreaded 'S' word…sagging. That is why it is important to support breasts ligaments by wearing a sports bra when exercising.
