High-Impact Sports Bras

Many women believe that bounce is unavoidable. Actually… bounce is totally
avoidable. MAAREE’s Sports Bras feature our exclusive Overband® Technology - a
curved panel that sits over the top of the chest - which actively reduces upward
motion, the main culprit of bounce. This isn't just about fabric compression; we also
engineer our products for overall stability, based on proper biomechanical testing.

Most bounce advice and the usual do’s and don’ts focus on cup size. But did you
know that breast tissue density, torso length, and even posture all impact movement
during exercise? Our founder, a sports engineer, factored this into every design, so
you're not just choosing a bra - you're choosing biomechanics that work!

High-impact bras more often than not trade comfort for control. Ours are unique and
different. Engineered for comfort and control: wider straps, 360-degree support,
breathable mesh, and soft elastic with every seam and panel wear-tested by real
women - not bounce test dummies or mannequins.

Here’s a quick but essential tip: If you feel soreness around your shoulders or back
after a workout (chances are you do) - your bra isn’t doing its job or right for you.
We’ll show you how to test your fit using our exclusive bra fitting guideliness, created by MAAREE’s founder.

Not all impact is equal. Our sports bras for women are labelled by motion type, not
just high, medium or low impact sports bra level. For example, horse riding creates
vertical and rotational bounce - so we reinforce our products differently for each
different discipline of sport. MAAREE is proud to be one of the only brands doing
this.

Many women report painful underboob chafing or friction near the clasp. We tackled
this with a super smooth-skin liner, totally tag-free interiors, and custom flatlock
stitching (with no nasty little ends). The result? One of the best sports bras on the
market tested for zero-friction zones.

Most high, low and medium impact sports bras haven’t changed at all since the ‘90s.
Our Overband® technology isn’t a gimmick - it’s a patented upper support layer that
controls vertical movement at the source. Developed by a sports person and
engineer, it’s backed by motion tracking tests that are available for everyone to see.

Performance athletes, like our brand ambassadors Millie Bright and Eleanor Cardwell look for rebound control, not just compression. In the past they often layered their bras which created a number of additional problems and was never a permanent solution. MAAREE eliminates the need for double bras by solving the top-down bounce problem. And to make sure we got it right we consulted with national-level runners and sports women on how to make the most perfect fitting bra.

Many women change out of their supportive sports bra as soon as they’re home.
Sound familiar? Sound unnecessary? Ours are designed for all-day wearability, with
smart technology ventilation and a solid structure that supports without squashing.
Ideal for women with long training days - or long to-do lists. Or those just wanting to
get home and collapse into the sofa for a well-earned cold drink or glass of wine.

Choosing your bra isn’t just about fit. It's about what you need it to do: Are you
running, boxing, doing CrossFit? Do you need anti-bounce, anti-chafe, or all-day
wear? Our Bra Finder Tool asks these exact questions - because we know “high-
impact” means different things to different women. Explore our range of Sports Bras
