Sports Bras

Get ready for your next workout or activity with your perfect sports bra. A well-fitted, supremely supportive style will let you stay focused on what you’re doing, not what your boobs are up to. 

The best sports bra for you, of course, depends on your exercise of choice. For high impact workout sessions like running or cycling, a bra designed with optimal support—with or without an underwire—is key. For low impact workouts like yoga, Pilates or hiking, a lightweight, wire-free sports bra will keep everything comfortably in place while you put it through its paces. To avoid show-through, opt for a padded sports bra that will afford you shaping coverage. At Bare Necessities, it’s always game on.

Sports Bras for Extra Support While You Work Out

Why settle for a good sports bra when you could have a great sports bra? The right bra can make all the difference when it comes to getting the most from your workout. In fact, just about every activity that requires more than a little physical exertion is more enjoyable in a sports bra that keeps your breasts exactly where they should be. Here at Bare Necessities, we have the best sports bras that won't hold you back from achieving your personal best.

Advantages of Different Sports Bra Styles

Boost your workout with a supportive sports bra built to carry you through whatever workout gets your heart rate up. Whether it’s yoga, cardio, Zumba or kickboxing, the versatile high impact sports bras we carry are ready for your most intense workouts. Underwire sports bras, racerback sports bras and padded sports bras have their fans; each style supports you in a way no regular bra can, at every  impact level.

Like a regular bra, sports bras can be wire-free or contain an underwire. There are advantages to both styles, so considering your body shape and preferred exercise can help you choose the right option for your workout wardrobe. Sports bras with underwire are usually what's known as encapsulation bras. These bras have individual cups that separate the breasts and lift breasts up, which can relieve pressure on your back and shoulders. They're different from compression bras, which support the breasts by holding them against the body. Read the product descriptions closely to make sure your preferred bra has the features that matter to you.

Your bra's fabric also impacts your comfort level. Women’s sports bras are always made from moisture-wicking materials, but natural fibers don't handle sweat away as well as synthetic options can. Soft cotton will serve you well during light workouts, but if you're pushing your body to the limit, consider polyester or a blend. And don't forget the importance of fabric when it comes to your underwear! Explore our top picks for the best underwear for working out.

If you need extra support for high-impact workouts, you'll love a racerback. Their tank straps are customizable, so you can create the perfect fit every time.
