4 tips for buying a sports bra

When you buy a bra you want to do this as well as possible. No rush, but plenty of time to look and experience for yourself how your bra feels and fits. For sports bras the same is true. Therefore, in this new blog we have listed some practical tips that you should pay attention to when buying new sports bras. Because let's be honest: there is no such thing as the best sports bra. It is and remains a matter of taste, build, breast size and other preferences. And that all varies per person!

1. Know your chest size

Buying a sports bra just for the sake of it is never advisable. It is important that the bra offers sufficient support and comfort during sports. Whether this is horseback riding, running or cycling: your breasts get a fair amount of impact, movement and abrasive skin. Both women with large and small cup sizes can reduce that impact by a good sports bra that offers sufficient support. Especially for women with a larger cup, it is therefore recommended that our sports bras large sizes with molded cups for extra support to buy.

2. Pay attention to your back and neck

Sports bras not only provide relief to your breasts, but also prevent back, neck and shoulder pain. Generally, sports bras with larger straps also offer more support. Many women wear the straps of their sports bra crossed over the back. That is not surprising because you will get a lot of support from your bra.

3. Always try on your bra!

Not only the sports bras, but all your sports underwear applies: it is possible to request a free passet through Q-LINN. A special set consisting of bras and underwear in different sizes will be delivered to your home. This way you can try on your bra in peace and quiet. Does it fit well? Does it pinch and can you move freely while wearing it? Important points to consider when trying on your new type of bra or sports underwear.

4. Avoid seams and edges

Seams and edges of your sports bra cause it to chafe during exercise. This is an uncomfortable feeling and can even lead to irritating spots on the skin. Therefore, always choose sports bras without underwire or with flexible straps. Nowadays there are many different options available, including sports bras with special gel straps that do not prick the skin during exercise. Underwired sports bras also increase comfort!
