FAQs
What activities is this sports bra best suited for?
This is a high-impact sports bra, ideal for activities such as running, aerobics, HIIT, cycling, equestrian sports, and other vigorous exercises where significant support is needed.
How do I convert the straps to a racerback?
The bra features a J-hook fastening on the straps. Connect the hooks to the loops on the back band to create a racerback style, which offers increased freedom of movement.
What is the best way to clean this sports bra?
It is recommended to hand wash the bra only in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, ironing, or dry cleaning to preserve the material and structure.
Is this bra suitable for everyday wear?
While comfortable, its design is optimized for high-impact sports. For everyday wear, a lighter support bra might be more suitable.
What does 'average coverage' mean for this bra?
Average coverage indicates that the bra covers the majority of the bust while still allowing for a good range of motion. It aims to balance containment with comfort for dynamic movements.
What material is the bra made from?
The product description mentions both Silk and Polyester for different variants. For this specific 'Animal' variant, Silk is listed as a material, alongside breathable outer fabric.
How do I find the right size?
Please refer to the Freya UK sizing chart provided, as this bra uses UK bra sizing. Ensure accurate measurements for band and cup size.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct band and cup size by consulting the Freya size chart. Adjust the hook and eye closure and strap length for a personalized fit.
Straps digging in
Loosen the shoulder straps slightly. If converted to a racerback, ensure the fit is not too constricting.
Underwire is uncomfortable
Ensure the underwire casing is positioned correctly around the bust. The silicone padding aims to enhance comfort; if persistent discomfort occurs, this style may not be the best fit for your body shape.
Reduced support after washing
Confirm that the bra was hand-washed only and air-dried according to care instructions. Avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the fabric and elastic.
