If you own a pair of boobs you understand the struggle of finding the perfect sports bra. <\/strong>The unsung (often invisible) heroes of any outdoor activity, sports bras can make or break a day. When it\u2019s right, we forget about it. When it\u2019s wrong, it becomes the bane of our existence.<\/p>\n We won\u2019t pretend that there\u2019s a single sports bra that will work for all of us. It would simply be a lie. But through research and testing, we\u2019ve compiled a list that we truly believe has something for nearly everyone. Since style, fit, and application is so diverse, instead of ranking these sports bras outright, we sorted them into categories to help you find the best sports bra for you.<\/p>\n Learn about what differentiates sports bras in our comprehensive buyers guide<\/strong><\/a> and FAQ<\/strong><\/a> at the bottom of the article. Our comparison chart<\/strong><\/a> can help you work through the decision-making process. Otherwise, read our full gear guide below.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Note: We heavily updated our Sports Bras guide on April 13, 2024, with 10 new, field-tested sports bras plus three returning favorites, as well as a new extensive buyers guide, FAQ, and comparison chart to help women find the best sports bra for their activities and bodies.<\/em><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHighly customizable<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tReally easy to get on and off<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tVersatile for a range of different high impact workouts<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCan feel heavy or cumbersome if you don\u2019t need the support<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOn the pricey side<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Some activities call for major reinforcements. And if you want a sure bet that you\u2019ll keep the gals in place, there aren\u2019t a ton of options out there. If you do HIIT workouts, ride horses, do gymnastics, or simply jump up and down from the exciting prospect of a legit no-bounce sports bra, the Knix Catalyst Sports Bra<\/a> ($75) is an investment worth making.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Finding a high-impact sports bra like the Catalyst that\u2019s also comfortable is no small feat. Testers appreciated multiple points of adjustability (shoulder and back straps) that let them dial in the perfect fit. Once you find the sweet spot, the ladder design doesn\u2019t fall down or adjust while you move, so you can lock things in and be on your way with peace of mind.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Sizing is generous. Cups are performance-molded (so give it a few wears and washes to nail that perfect intuitive fit). The Knix Catalyst Sports Bra<\/a> has ventilation in all the hotspots and snaps in the back making it as easy to put on and take off as your regular bra.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSuperhero support<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPadded straps<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCould be overbuilt for some folks<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPricier side<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n We love a sports bra that thinks outside the box. At first glance, the SheFit Ultimate Sports Bra High Impact<\/a> ($69) might look like a strange contraption, but the ultra-supportive adjustable sports bra won over testers for its all-day comfort and innovative design. Not only are the straps more than an inch wide and adjustable, but the bust band is adjustable, too. Those buttery soft straps distribute weight evenly and don\u2019t dig in.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n SheFit’s Luxe sizes feature extra padding through the straps to alleviate pressure for large-busted women. One of our testers noted that she often has problems with pain or chafing from front-zipper sports bras, which the Ultimate solves with a fully encased design that protects skin from the zipper. Those cups are wire-free, as well. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n The SheFit Ultimate Sports Bra High Impact<\/a> is also a great option for nursing mothers and women who have undergone mastectomies, as the brand worked with plastic surgeons to create adjustability specifically for this purpose. Free returns and exchanges, as well as a money-back guarantee, provide customer service backing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTransitions from day wear to workouts<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSimple design<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSoft and stretchy fabric<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tVery little impact support<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNot adjustable<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Soft and breathable, the Harper Wilde Bliss Bralette<\/strong><\/a> ($45) is one of those bras that you put on and forget about. No foam, cups, wires, or padding keep the Bliss pretty minimalistic, which testers loved while hopping between yoga class, work, a light gym session, or an evening stroll through the woods.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Smooth sides disappeared pretty well underneath most T-shirts and sweaters, which kept this in front and center in our weekly rotation. The wide (and wireless) elastic band stayed firmly in place all day. No fussing or adjusting.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n While bralettes are typically more popular with smaller-chested folks, Harper Wilde adds a double-layer sling for support in large and up sizes, a comfortable low-key option no matter your cup size. Unsurprisingly, testers found the Harper Wilde Bliss Bralette<\/strong><\/a> to be an ideal choice for mostly light activity\u2014yoga class, pilates, hiking\u2014and would opt for something with a little more support for a run or HIIT session.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nThe Best Sports Bras of 2024<\/strong><\/h2>\n
