Brooks

Brooks started in 1977 in Arlington, Virginia, when two women runners decided they were tired of wearing men's jogging activewear.  They began creating sportswear designed for women by women. Many of their designs helped prevent discomforts that bothered women when running: thigh rubbing, armpit chafing and pinching. Brooks' sports bras are designed in conjunction with the Research Group in Breast Health at the University of Portsmouth to do lab testing utilizing the biomechanical movements of breasts during running. Brooks is mastering the scientific aspects of developing running bras that are comfortable for every woman.

And now, rolling out two brand-new Brooks sports bra collections, the Drive collection features compression-centered support with flexible hold. Lightweight fabric as well as removable padding deliver comfort for your running needs. Back designs range from kicked-in, to racerback and sexy interwoven looks. The new Dare collection is especially engineered for women who want encapsulation support to contain and support you. Molded cups contain and hold you in a wide range of sizes. Featuring great styles like a zip front, innovative backs and an underwire style for full bust support.  Both collections offer comfort especially geared to the high impact of running. 

Run Happy. Live Healthy. Brooks iis all about helping non-discriminatory agencies, donating time, gear, and money to help communities promote a healthy, active lifestyle. Brooks has donated thousands of dollars to Girls in the Game, which promotes fitness and health in girls aged 6 to 18.

Through their innovative sports bras, shorts, leggings, and tops, Brooks is helping women get up and going. They know an active lifestyle will help women be healthy in the future. A sports bra cannot force a woman to workout, but a comfortable, stylish bra can be a great initiative to begin a journey to a better life. Brooks points women in the direction of fitness on the road to being powerful.
