Because your bra deserves a rest day, too.
When it comes to sports bras, most of us have a favourite. You know the one — the reliable bestie that’s been through every gym session, pitch run-through, or post-baby power walk. But here’s the truth bomb nobody ever told us growing up: one sports bra is not enough… and even two won’t cut it.
If you’re serious about support (and avoiding the dreaded sag, chafe, or bounce), you need three in rotation. And don’t worry — we’re about to explain why.
Let’s Talk About Elastic - Your Bra’s “Muscle Memory”
Sports bras rely on elastic to do all the hard work: lift, hold, compress, support, bounce-control, jiggle prevention… the list goes on.
But here’s the catch:
Elastic takes around 18 hours to fully relax and return to shape.
That means if you wear the same sports bra every day (or even every other day), the elastic never gets a full recovery cycle.And what happens when anything never gets a break?
It quits on you.
The band stretches. The straps slacken. The support slowly vanishes. And your boobs? They feel every bit of it.
⭐ The Holy Trinity: “Wear One, Wash One, Rest One” ⭐
This is the magic formula for keeping your bras supportive, clean, fresh and long-lasting.
1. Wear One
This is the bra you’re putting through its paces today — training, tackling, squeezing in a 12-minute HIIT session between Zoom calls, whatever your vibe.
2. Wash One
Sweat, oils, skincare, and movement break down elastic faster than you think.A gentle wash after wearing is key to keeping its lifespan long.
3. Rest One
This is the most important step. This bra is simply living its best life, lying down, doing nothing, resting its elastic for a full 18 hours.
It’s like a spa day… for sports bras.
🧠 The Science-y Bit (But Not Boring, Promise)
When you wear a sports bra, you stretch the elastic fibres in the band and straps. They need time to:
Decompress
Return to their original tension
Regain their strength
If you don’t allow this? The elastic breaks down permanently — the support drops, the bra quits early, and you end up buying more bras anyway.
So really… having three doesn’t cost more — it saves you money.
💪 And When You Play Rugby?
If you’re scrum-deep in contact, sprinting down the wing, tackling, or breastfeeding (or all of the above), your sports bra goes through even more impact.
That’s exactly why we built Brazen — sports bras designed for real bodies doing real, tough, high-impact movement. And trust us… these bras deserve a proper rotation to keep their power.
🎉 Brazen Treat: Buy 3, Get the 3rd HALF PRICE!
Because we practice what we preach — and we want your bras to last and support you properly — we’re giving you a deal that makes building your rotation easy:
Buy 3 Brazen sports bras at once, and your 3rd is HALF PRICE.
Your boobs deserve support. Your bra elastic deserves rest. And you deserve a deal.
The Bottom Line?
If you care about comfort, support, long-term lift, and keeping your Brazen bra performing like the day you bought it…
You need three.
