FAQs

Is this sports bra suitable for low-impact activities?

While this bra is designed for high impact, its supportive features can also offer comfort during medium-impact activities. For very low-impact needs, you might prefer a less structured bra.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the Freya sizing guide, which typically involves measuring your band size and cup size. For this specific model, ensure you measure accurately for band size (around the ribcage) and cup size (around the fullest part of the bust).

Can I machine wash this sports bra?

No, this Freya Active High-Octane Sports Bra is strictly hand wash only. Machine washing can damage the fabric, underwire, and overall structure.

What is the benefit of the J-hook feature?

The J-hook allows you to convert the bra's straps into a racerback style. This offers enhanced freedom of movement, better support for certain exercises, and can prevent straps from slipping off the shoulders.

Does the underwire provide necessary support?

Yes, the underwire is designed to provide significant support and lift, which is crucial for high-impact activities. It works in conjunction with the molded cups and band to minimize bounce.

What does 'average coverage' mean for this bra?

Average coverage typically means the cups cover the majority of the breast without extending excessively high or low. This design aims to balance support with comfort for active use.

What materials is the bra made from?

The primary material is polyester, which is chosen for its durability, moisture-wicking properties, and lightweight feel. It also features mesh inserts for enhanced breathability.

Troubleshooting

Bra feels too tight or loose

Adjust the shoulder straps and the hook and eye fastening. Ensure you have selected the correct band and cup size. Refer to the sizing chart if needed.

Underwire is uncomfortable or digging in

Ensure the underwire is correctly positioned around the breast tissue. Hand wash the bra as per care instructions, as improper washing can affect the underwire's integrity. If discomfort persists, the underwire style may not be suitable for your body shape.

Straps are slipping

Tighten the adjustable straps. If the racerback conversion (using the J-hook) is used, ensure the straps are properly secured in the J-hook.

Material feels less breathable after washing

Ensure the bra is hand-washed with a mild detergent and rinsed thoroughly. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can clog the fabric's pores and reduce breathability. Air dry completely.
