Amy Reviews the Ultimate Run Bra
Expert Comments:
“The Ultimate Run Bra is a snug fit in the band; it has to be to offer the support it does! If you are between sizes or would like a less snug fit I recommend going up a size in the band and down a size in the cup to get the perfect fit. Example: If you normally wear a 12D consider purchasing a 14C.
I love the soft, silky cups and there is no inner seams to prevent chafing. This bra is incredibly comfortable during workouts and fantastic support. It really does stop your breasts moving around while you run. The cup shape does maintain good breast separation and a great bust shape without any uni-boob. I found that once the straps were adjusted to suit, the racer back design was easy to put on and off. Even when you are hot and sweaty after a workout.” – Amy

Just like your sports bra takes care of you, you can return the favour and take care of it too! It’s ideal to wash your bra every time you wear it, but this varies on how intense your workout was.
To extend the lifespan of your bra we recommend you hand wash it in cool water with a mild detergent and dry flat in the shade. Most non wired bras can be machine washed. Ensure the clips are fastened and use a garment bag to prevent damage. Wash on a cool, gentle cycle avoiding fabric softeners. If you opt to line dry hang your bra in half, not from the shoulder strap or back strap. Avoid using pegs. Never tumble dry, bleach, iron or dry clean your sports bra.
Please always check the manufacturer’s guidelines for how to wash and care for your sports bra. We want your sports bra to last as long as possible so please visit caring for your sports bra for further information.

Finding your correct Australian Bra Size is as easy as 1, 2, 3. One; follow the instructions below to find your underbust and overbust size. Two; slide the bars to your correct size position to discover your recommended size. Three; start shopping!
Underbust Size; measure around your chest, directly below your bust. Read more below.
Overbust size; measure around the fullest part of your breasts. Read more below.
Measuring Your Underbust
Stand straight with your arms hanging casually by your side; if you can get a friend to measure you around your chest, directly under your bust.
Ideally, measure yourself while you are wearing a good fitting bra.
The tape should sit directly under your breasts (where your bra band would normally sit), should be horizontal all the way around and be as tight as possible without being uncomfortable (exactly like your bra’s underband).
This measurement is your Underbust.
Measuring Your Overbust
Still standing straight measure horizontally around the fullest part of your bust (usually over the nipples). This is best done while you’re wearing a good fitting bra.
The tape should not be to tight resting lightly on your body. Make sure the tape is straight across your back and is parallel to the floor.
This measurement is your Overbust.
Crop Tops
Crop tops can fit differently to cupped bras. Generally speaking they are more similar to women’s clothing sizes.
XS = 8 S = 10 M = 12 L = 14 XL = 16 XXL = 18
Sports Bras Direct recommends crop tops for cup sizes A-D only. You must also check the specific style of crop top suits the level of impact you require. Breasts that are bigger than a D cup require more specific support from a cup size sports bra.
Each Brand has a slight variation in their actual measurement guidelines for crop tops. Please check brand specific sizing below to establish the best size crop to suit you.
If you are still unsure on your size we would love to help you, please contact us to arrange your personal fitting appointment.
