Apparel

The right apparel has a huge impact on making your workout more comfortable. Technical fabrics will wick moisture away from the skin surface and keep you drier. This will help you avoid getting cold and chilled in the winter. It will also reduce chafing from friction and dampness that is common with cotton garments, especially in the warmer months, as they soak with perspiration.

Fleet Feet Sports offers a broad selection of running clothing year round from Nike, Brooks, Mizuno, Asics, and CWX. We also carry an extensive selection of sport bras and women's apparel from Enell, Saucony and Moving Comfort.

What makes a good sports bra?

Support - If you're a small- or medium-breasted woman (A to C cup), a compression style bra will offer support and comfort. Or if you prefer, you can choose a bra that offers encapsulation for shaping as well as support.

If you're a larger-breasted woman (C to DD cup) you may find encapsulating styles that separate and support your breasts more comfortable and more supportive than compression bras. For maximum support, choose a sport bra that does both.

Also, different activities result in different degrees of movement. The higher the impact level, the more support you'll need.

Comfort – Try on different styles to find out what you like best. A good sport bra should feel comfortable on, stay in place, and not chafe. The straps should not dig into the shoulders and the band around the lower chest should not shift or bind.

Do jumping jacks, run in place, and swing your arms side to side to make sure what feels good on is comfortable and supportive when you're in motion. Keep in mind that a good sport bra should fit more snugly than a lingerie bra to provide you with support, but should not be uncomfortable or restrict movement or breathing.

Moisture Control and Breathability - A good sport bra will wick sweat away from the skin and then dry quickly, and it will be breathable, allowing perspiration and excess heat to pass through. A good sport bra will keep you cooler and drier when it's hot, and drier and warmer when it's cold.
