FAQs

How do I find my correct Freya size?

Refer to the Freya brand size chart. Measure your underbust for the band size and your overbust for the cup size. The product description notes that it is sold in UK sizing.

Can I wear this bra for everyday activities?

While designed for high impact, its comfort features like breathable fabric and soft fastenings make it suitable for moderate activities or everyday wear if you prefer strong support.

What is the benefit of the J-hook feature?

The J-hook allows you to convert the standard shoulder straps into a racerback style. This is beneficial for activities that require a greater range of motion in the shoulders or to prevent straps from slipping.

Is the underwire comfortable for long periods?

The underwire is designed to offer supportive structure for high-impact activities. Combined with the soft hook-and-eye panel and built-up straps, it aims to provide comfort, but individual comfort can vary.

How do I convert the straps to a racerback?

Locate the J-hook on each strap and connect it to the corresponding loop on the back band to form a racerback shape.

What is the primary activity this bra is designed for?

This bra is specifically designed for high-impact performance activities, such as running, intense gym workouts, and other sports that require maximum support and minimal bounce.

How does the molded cup differ from a regular cup?

Molded cups are pre-shaped and often have perforations for enhanced breathability and structure, providing a smooth, defined shape and preventing discomfort from seams.

Troubleshooting

Straps digging in

Adjust the straps to a looser setting or convert to the racerback style for better weight distribution.

Underband feels too tight

Ensure you are using the loosest hook-and-eye setting. If still uncomfortable, consider a band size up or refer to the size chart again.

Discomfort during high impact

Verify that the correct bra size has been selected using the Freya size guide. Ensure all fastenings are secure and straps are properly adjusted.

Reduced breathability over time

Ensure the bra is washed regularly according to care instructions to remove sweat and body oils that can clog the fabric's pores.
