Women's Cross Back Bra with Light Support

This bra offers light bust support, ideal for low-impact sports.

What types of activities is this bra suitable for?

Why does the light support bra make it easier to play sports?

The foundation of sport is being able to move. That's why we've added the necessary details to this bra for free exercise. The straps are crossed in the back to free up the shoulder area and thus free up arm movement. This clearance also allows the back to breathe during exercise and allows perspiration to escape more easily. Large openings under the arms also offer constant comfort and greater ease.

What is the cut of the light support bra?

You can exercise and still want to feel pretty. At least, that's how we see things at Decathlon. This light-support bra was designed to enhance women's beauty during their weight training or indoor sports sessions. It can be worn without anything else over it. The pleated and lined effect on the front, removable cups, and V-neckline enhance the bust. For a complete look, pair it with the matching leggings.

Why is it important to protect the chest during sporting activity?

During sports, your breasts, fragile and almost exclusively supported by the skin, are subjected to much greater stress than in daily life. Regardless of your hat or your age, they undergo movements and bounces and can weigh up to 5 times their weight depending on the intensity of the practice. The sports bra provides them with the necessary support, comfort and protection. It protects them from impacts, pain and premature sagging.

Strong, medium or light support, how to choose?

During sports, the stresses stretch the skin and ligaments of the chest. Without sufficient support, you risk pain or premature sagging. However, too much maintenance can also be harmful in the long term. It is therefore necessary to adapt the level of support of your bra to the size of your cup and the intensity of the impacts suffered. The goal is to protect your chest without changing the natural movement of the breast.

What are the support levels of Decathlon sports bras?

The models are validated in our laboratories using a chest support test which measures the reduction in the acceleration of breast movement during sports practice. They are evaluated and then classified from 1 to 5: 1 for light support, 3 for medium support and 5 for strong support.

What level of bra support for which sport?

The support of the bra must be adapted to the sport practiced. Our range has 3 levels: - Level 1: light support for activities that produce gentle chest movements (Yoga, Pilates, stretching, golf, etc.); - Level 3: medium support for activities that cause moderate bounce (cycling, dance, fitness, cardio training, etc.); - Level 5: strong support for activities associated with intense movements (HIIT, running, tennis, team sports, horse riding).

How are Decathlon bras designed?

Decathlon bras are created by our team of experts to optimize your comfort and avoid health problems. We do not use frames to avoid the risk of injury and compression of the lymph nodes. We minimize the seams at the nipple level to limit the risk of irritation. We also favor components that allow perspiration to escape to guarantee your comfort and considerably reduce the risk of irritation.

How to maintain the light support bra?

Designed for sports use, this bra can be washed and rewashed. We simply advise you not to wash it above 30° by placing it in our laundry bag sold separately (ref. 8505236). Use liquid detergent rather than powder detergent and avoid fabric softeners. This could affect the fabric's breathability. Do not tumble dry.
