MULTITASKERS

Bras that fully support any activity

Shock Absorber Active Multi Sports Support £37, shockabsorber.co.uk ‘Zero bounce’, declares one D-cup runner, who loved how this bra supports without smothering. The relatively thin fabric is breathable, the open-back design provides good ventilation, and the soft bottom band stayed comfortable on long runs.

Best for: C-E cup Trimax Compression Seamless Sports Crop £32, bellumactive. co.uk This compression sports crop fits beautifully and comfortably and can be worn on its own, or under a top. A great all-rounder that testers said combined a great offering of support, wicking, movement and handy extras like the inner key pocket.

Best for: A-B cup Brooks Fineform Sports Bra £36, brooksrunning.co.uk Previous versions didn’t offer enough support, but this year’s Fineform earned testers’ thumbs-up. Smooth underarm seams reduce chafing, the underband drinks up sweat, and slightly stretchy shoulder straps made this bra comfortable before, during and after workouts.
