What type of sports bra is best for girls?

What is a good first sports bra for girls?
A first sports bra should feel comfortable, easy to put on and supportive without feeling restrictive.
The Active is a great first sports bra for girls moving from everyday crop tops or first bras into more active sport. Its pull-on design, adjustable straps and medium support make it easy to wear for school, PE and training.
What is the difference between the Essential First Bra and Active Sports Bra?
The Essential First Bra provides gentle, light support for school, everyday wear and light activity.
The Active Sports Bra provides medium support for girls who are moving more, making it better suited to PE, netball, dance, training and everyday sport.
For higher-movement activities such as running, competitive netball or cheer, consider the Energy Sports Bra for additional support.
Is the Active Sports Bra suitable for school and PE?
Yes. The Active is designed to move easily between school and sport.
Its soft fabric, smooth construction and adjustable straps make it comfortable enough for everyday wear, while medium support gives her extra security for PE, training and active days.
Is the Active Sports Bra suitable for netball?
Yes. The Active Sports Bra provides medium support and works well for everyday netball training and games.
For girls who prefer firmer support, play at higher intensity or do a lot of running and jumping, the Energy Sports Bra provides a higher level of support.
Can the straps be worn crossed?
Yes. The Active Sports Bra has adjustable, convertible straps that can be worn straight or crossed at the back.
This lets her adjust the fit depending on what she's wearing and how much security she wants during movement.
Does the Active Sports Bra have padding?
Yes. The Active Sports Bra includes light, removable padding for extra coverage and modesty.
She can wear the padding when she wants it or remove it depending on what feels most comfortable.
