When you go out and choose a sports bra there are several things you should consider. Firstly, it is of course important that your sports bra fits correctly when you are out exercising. So it is not enough to stand in front of the mirror and see if it fits nicely - it has to feel right. Swing your arms, run on the spot, jump up and down a little - and notice if there is anything that tightens or bothers you. If there is something that bothers you when you jump or run a little instead, it only gets worse when you have to go out and use your Sports Bra for real. Your sports bra must fit perfectly, hold your bosom firmly and not slide around your body when you move.

When checking a sports bra, pay attention to the circumference. Is the circumference fixed in the natural way, and does not slide around the body when you lift your arms or similar. then you have just the right circumference. The circumference is the one that should support your bust the most, it's not the straps that should support your bust. However, you should also look at the thickness and shape of the straps and see how they sit on your shoulders. You will be able to find a selection of sports bras where you can adjust the straps to a cross on the back. A sports bra with a cross back can have the advantage for you that the pressure on your shoulders is in a different and better place.

Which sports bra is best

It all depends of what size your bust is, as well as which model suits you best. No brand is better than other brands. The different brands will have different models, which of course means that there will be many options for you to choose from. You can find sports bras that are both best for you with a small bust, but also you with a large bosom who needs good support, both for your chest but also for your shoulders and back. For you with a large bosom, you have the option of finding a sports bra 'are with wide stops, which will be distributed over a larger area on your shoulders. Wide straps will be more comfortable for you. If you cross your bras on your back, your chest won't feel nearly as heavy when you do sports.

Proper bust support – Be aware of your support

It is of course your Sports Bra's most important job to provide proper support to the bust. But proper support is not the same as your bust being pressed completely flat. Then you simply run the risk of the breasts bumping into each other in the passageway, and it can become really uncomfortable in the long run. It is important that you get a bra that is the right size in the cup, so your bosom gets enough room to move. The bowl should of course still fit tightly in the bowl and around the circumference, but not so tight that it is uncomfortable. The cup must close naturally around your breasts, so that the bosom does not jump out when you are in motion.

The materials that the brands Triumph, Anita and PrimaDonna uses is of high quality. The materials give you the best efficiency and allow your skin to breathe.

Durability and washing

A sports bra does not last forever. The many stretches and stresses stretch the fabric every time you use it, and eventually all the support in the bra is unfortunately gone. If you have a sports bra that you only use once or twice a week, you should expect it to last approx. a year - maybe 8 months at the most. How often should you wash your sports bra? When you wash your bra often, it actually lasts longer, and that may sound crazy. When the elastic is washed and is clean, it retains its strength much better.

Of course, it also depends on how often you play sports, which sports you play and how much you sweat, but we recommend that you wash your sports bra after 2 workouts, also because your sports bra sits close to the body's skin, where such small bacteria will always form. Here you will get some tips on how to properly wash your sports bra. Always remember to follow the washing instructions carefully.

• Always wash your sports bra in your washing bag, and if you don't have a washing bag, you can buy one from us.
  • If you are going to wash your sports bra in the washing machine, use a washing bag and use a detergent for fine material and a fine washing programme.
  • Do not put your sports bra in the tumble dryer. The elastic in your sports bra cannot withstand the high temperature, and your sports bra will dry quickly anyway.
