Sports Bras You Can Swim In

Okay, ladies, let's talk about something near and dear to our hearts (or should I say, chests?) swimming with larger busts. Whether you're a seasoned triathlete or just love a good dip in the pool, finding the right support can be a real struggle. But fear not, I'm here to help!

Can I Really Swim in a Sports Bra?

Absolutely! But not just any sports bra will do. Think of it like this: you wouldn't wear your running shoes to a yoga class, right? The same goes for your swimwear. To make a splash without sacrificing support, your sports bra needs to have a few key features:

1. Fabric: Ditch the heavy padding and thick cups. They'll soak up water like a sponge and leave you feeling weighed down and uncomfortable. Instead, look for lightweight, quick-drying materials that will keep you feeling cool and supported like the Active D Moisture Wicking Wirefree bra:
   
   
   
   
   
2. Straps: Say goodbye to shoulder straps that dig in and restrict your movement. If you're doing a lot of swimming, racerback or crossback styles are better as they'll give you the freedom to move your arms without feeling constricted. If you're just taking it easy poolside, a style like the Enell LITE will keep you secure and provides enough coverage to be worn as a bikini top:
   
   
   
   
   
3. Hardware: Nobody wants rusty clasps ruining their favourite sports bra. Look for bras with coated hook and eye closures to prevent rust and keep your bra looking (and functioning) its best. The Simone has ladder straps that will ensure the only slipping & sliding is going on in the pool! 
   
   

Will Chlorine and Saltwater Ruin My Bra?

• Here's the truth: chlorine and saltwater can be tough on any swimwear, including sports bras. But that doesn't mean you can't enjoy a swim!
  
  
• Just be prepared for a slightly shorter lifespan compared to a regular swimsuit.
  
  
• The good news is, with proper care (like rinsing it with fresh water after each swim, like you would do to your swimsuit), you can extend its life and enjoy maximum support in the water.
