Interesting enough

Many women assume (incorrectly) that because they have small breasts or they’re only casual joggers that they don’t need to be professionally fitted for a sports bra. The truth is that 86% of women are wearing the wrong bra size. That means that 86% of women are wearing sports bras that don’t support them properly.

 THE BAND 

There are so many factors to consider when finding YOUR perfect sport support. A bra size the same or bigger than your pants size is the first sign that your sports bra is not a good fit and not giving you the proper support you need. A band that is too big is also often the culprit behind painful chafe! The band of your sports bra should fit snugly around your body. The right band size should support your breasts from below, not the shoulder straps. Our Croft Bra adjustable straps uplift the breast!

 The Cup

Don’t waste your money on bras that only come in small, med or large. They only compress breast tissue into one heavier mass, making proper support impossible. A good quality, supportive sports bras will only be available in cup sizes. That’s because they are designed to separate the breasts – encapsulating and supporting each one independently – ensuring that any ‘bounce’ is effectively managed. Proper sports bra support should feel like your breasts are being held, not squashed, against the body.
