Sports bras continue to make enormous advancements in comfort, support and moisture control. They're made
to give your breasts protection from tissue damage and discomfort as you walk, jog or
jump. Most sports bras today are made with stretch microfiber fabrics such as
Coolmax or Lycra that wick away moisture from your skin to keep you dry and reduce irritation during your workout. There are two basic designs for sports bras: encapsulation or molded cup and compression. Encapsulation bras control movement on two planes because of their molded cup design while compression bras restrict movement on one plane and are made specifically to hug the breasts tightly against the chest.
Although the styles of sports bras greatly differ, they are generally categorized according to their control level. Light control sports bras are for the low-impact workout such as walking, yoga, and gardening. Medium control bras are for moderate impact workouts such as hiking, biking, rollerblading or power walking. Firm control designs are made for the high-impact workout such as jogging, basketball and tennis. And, maximum control sports bras are reserved for extreme impact workouts like running, horseback riding and gymnastics. Whether you’re an athlete or into yoga, for low or high impact
activities, a sports bra is an essential wardrobe item for all women who desire modesty, support, control and comfort during exercise.
