Coupled with how up to 94% of women are reported to have asymmetrical breasts, “reinforces the critical importance of the correct and supportive fit, as well as adequate performance wear”, adidas noted.
The all-new range incorporates adidas’ latest material constructs and specific detailing, “aiming to reduce distractions so athletes can focus on improving performance”.
Following on from the SS22 Bra Collection, its “newest bra and leggings chapter caters to even more workout needs across Studio, All Gym, HIIT and Running, with new styles specifically designed to combat the performance barriers being faced”.
From four-way material stretch and recovery, to full adjustability, increased support structures, and airflow management, the SS23 Bra & Leggings collection “is available in inclusive sizing and has been crafted to ensure more women athletes can experience sport to its full potential”.
