Take the guesswork out of sports bra fitting.

When your sports bra doesn't fit, it's not only unhelpful, it's uncomfortable. To find a sports bra with the right amount of support, you first need to know your correct everyday bra size.

If the band is too loose, it's not providing enough support. Decrease your band size.

If the band digs into your back, it is too tight. Increase your band size.

If the band feels snug but not tight, you are wearing the correct band size.

If your breasts have extra room inside the cups, the cup size is too large.

If your breasts overflow at the edges of the cups, the cup size is too small.

If the cups fit around your breast with no overflow or gaping, then the cup size is correct.

If your cups fit correctly and your band is too loose and rides up, increase your cup size and decrease your band size.

If the band is too tight and digs in, decrease your cup size and increase your band size.

If the band and cups fit correctly, you're in the right size.

Consider what you'll be wearing your sports bra for. Low-impact activities like yoga or pilates usually require less support, while high-impact sports like HIIT training and running require more stability.
