Common questions

Are high support sports bras good for large breasts?

Yes. High support sports bras can be particularly useful for larger and fuller breasts.

Look for a firm band, supportive cups, good coverage and secure straps. Bra-sized designs can also provide a more precise fit across larger cup sizes.

The right size is essential for getting the intended support. Our Determine Your Size guide can help you check your current size.

How should a high support sports bra fit?

A high support sports bra should feel firm and secure without being painfully tight.

The band should stay level around your body and shouldn't ride up. Your breasts should sit completely inside the cups without spilling or excessive gaping.

Your straps should feel secure without digging into your shoulders.

Our How Should a Sports Bra Fit? guide explains the key fit checks in more detail.

Should a high support sports bra be underwired or wirefree?

Both underwired and wirefree sports bras can provide high levels of support.

Underwired designs can provide separation, shaping and individual breast support. Wirefree designs can use structured cups, supportive fabrics and firm bands to control movement without a wire.

The better choice depends on your body and comfort preferences.

Whichever you choose, try our Sports Bra Movement Test to check your support before exercising.

Think running, HIIT, netball, aerobics and court sports. These activities involve more movement than walking, yoga or Pilates.
