The $4.75 Sports Bra!

Posted on January 29, 2012 by | |

I’m always on the lookout for the perfect sports bra.  If I’m doing an intense workout,  I want to stay as cool as possible while still feeling like I look cute!  My outfit of choice is just a sports bra and knee-length leggings.  (Being able to be a little less covered up is one of my favorite things about working out at home.)  The perfect bra, to me, has the following qualities:

  • Cute
  • Comfortable
  • Supportive
  • Flattering
  • Doesn’t allow any “show through”
  • Has a little padding

Lucy, Lululemon, and Marika all have some nice options.  However, they average about $50 per bra!  So a few weeks ago, I decided to try out one of the cheapest options I found anywhere:  the Seamless Sports Bra on Amazon from somewhere called FineBrandShop, for only $4.75!   It had some good reviews, so at that price, it was worth a try.  I got it in black, although there are lots of pretty colors.  While I wouldn’t call it “perfect,”  to my surprise, it’s actually pretty great!

The fabric of the bra is really soft.  It reminds me, in fact, of the pieces I have from Beyond Yoga, which are about ten times the price!  It fits all of the requirements on my list—even the padding, which is hard to find in a cheap sports bra.  My only complaint is about the straps—I wish they were a little thicker and looked less like actual lingerie bra straps.  They’re not uncomfortable–I would just like the bra to look a little more athletic.  For $4.75 I can live with it, but I’d pay a few more dollars for some straps.

There is one major caveat about these bras—they come in only one size!  I guess that’s part of keeping the cost low.  These bras are definitely for the small to medium-chested.  I’m a 34B, and the fit is perfect.  I think it could work up or down a size in either direction, although if you’re much larger, I doubt these would fit or give you enough support.  But if you’re not sure, for the price, it may be worth giving it a shot.

For some reason, although these bras are all sold by the same company and come in a lot of different colors, they’re all listed on different pages!  I put links to them below by color:

Article: David Beckham to Please the Ladies with Underwear Ad During Super Bowl


David Beckham to Please the Ladies with Underwear Ad During Super Bowl
http://larrybrownsports.com/sports-business/david-beckham-superbowl-underwear-ad/111605

Those of you who are Giants, Patriots, Ravens, or Niners fans could end up focusing on one thing and one thing only come Sunday, Feb. 5. The rest of us will be enjoying the best day of the year and — per usual — the best commercials of the calendar year. Good news for the portion of the population that has always wanted to see David Beckham in his underwear during the big game: you’ll get your wish during the second quarter this year.

According to the Mirror, the H&M clothing company has put up an estimated $1 million to have Beckham appear in a 30-second commercial wearing nothing but his skivvies. Of course, Beckham will be showcasing H&M’s “David Beckham Bodywear” collection.

“Over the past year, I’ve been developing my Bodywear range with my team and I’m extremely positive about what we have designed and produced,” Beckham said. “The final piece in the jigsaw was a retail partner who has the vision and capability to distribute these products globally. In H&M we have found the perfect partner to collaborate with going forward.”

As the Mirror pointed out, the largest audience Beckham was ever seen by came during the 2002 World Cup, when roughly 1.6 billion people watched a match between England and Brazil. To my knowledge, Beckham was not alone and in his underwear during that broadcast. An estimated two billion people will see him in that state during the Super Bowl. If anyone has the confidence to pull it off, it’s Becks.
