Sports Bras
A sports bra should control breast motion without causing discomfort or any difficulty in breathing. It’s important to always wear a supportive sports bra for both high and low impact activities. Sports bras are designed with features such as protective, pressure absorbing layers (to comfortably
minimize movement) and shock absorbing straps. Hi-tech fabrics offer reduced stretch for greater support, plus breathability and ability to wick away moisture for greater comfort. A good sports bra should offer 2-3 times more support than an ordinary bra. Depending on your activity level, you may need to have more than one style of sports bra in your wardrobe.
Linea Intima carries a selection of styles which are designed specifically for different levels of activity, such as jogging, golf or yoga.
Fit Tips

Care

- Be aware when your bra loses elasticity and remember to replace them.

- If you are into sports, consider purchasing 2-3 sports bra at a time: taking turns in wearing them ensures longer lifespan.
