It’s the most crucial

bit of kit for women,

but finding a sports

bra worth its weight in

gold can be a tricky

task. Luckily, Nike has

been busy doing its

homework, investing

over 600 hours of

research into its new

FE/NOM Flyknit bra

(the first bra made

with its Flyknit

technology, FYI),

including body

Ventilation in high-

heat areas will help

keep you cool, even

in the sweatiest of

workouts. This bra

is also 30% lighter

than other high-

support Nike bras

for comfortable,

weightless support

Flyknit technology

minimises bounce

by varying areas of

support precisely

where you need it.

Made from a single

layer of high-tech

fabric, it moulds to

your body shape

The Lululemon Free

removable cups make

it our yoga go-to.

Front-closing?

Wire-free? You

betcha. Triumph’s

a great all-rounder

So comfy you’ll never

want to take it off.

scanning and motion

capture analysis to get

vital boob-specific

biometric info. The

result is the solution

to all your sports bra

woes: three different

levels of support, with

maximum comfort and

a breathable, barely

there feel. Whether

you’re an AA or a DD,

the Flyknit technology

means there’s no need

to choose between

style or support – you’ll

be rocking both. Nicole

Rendone, Nike’s design

director of bras and

innovation explains:

‘The bra combines

FIT KIT HERO

encapsulation and

compression fit,

providing maximum

comfort and high

support without the

irritating bulk of wires

and foam cups.’ In

seriously strong

colourways – from a

zingy neon yellow to

an understated purple

and blue combo –

there’s something for

everyone, no matter

your size or style.

Welcome to the sports

bra of the future.
