Choosing the right sports bra is one of the most important decisions for every active woman. Especially when it comes to running, where the intensity of movement is high, the wrong bra can lead not only to discomfort but even injury. In this guide, we'll tell you what to look for when choosing a running bra.
Size matters
The first and most important step is choosing the correct size. Many women wear ill-fitting bras, which leads to irritation and lack of support. Measure yourself carefully before purchasing and compare your measurements with the size chart. Remember that sports bra sizes may differ from regular bra sizes.
Our INES sports bra is available in a variety of sizes, ensuring every woman can find the perfect fit. Stretchy materials and adjustable straps allow for a precise fit.
Type of support
For running, you need a bra with high support. We offer three levels: low, medium, and high. For intense running, we highly recommend the high level. The LOU model from LIGAS is an excellent choice for active runners. Check out the LOU bra and see for yourself its benefits!
High-support bras feature wider straps, a stronger closure, and extra support around the bust. This translates into greater comfort during your workout.
Material and breathability
Running is an activity that produces a lot of sweat, so the fabric matters. LIGAS uses high-quality fabric — a soft, dense LIGAS knit knit with an opaque weave.
Avoid bras made of 100% cotton, as they absorb moisture and become heavy. Opt for polyester blends with elastane, which are stretchy and durable.
When to replace your bra?
Have you noticed your bra has lost its elasticity? Is it starting to smell bad after washing? These are signs it's time for a replacement. Typically, a sports bra should be replaced every 6-12 months of heavy use.
Investing in a high-quality bra is an investment in your health and comfort. Choose LIGAS and enjoy a workout without discomfort!
