Next's £26 Sports Bra Hailed as 'Best for Running' by UK Shoppers
Next's £26 sports bra praised as 'best for running'

Shoppers in the UK have discovered a new favourite piece of activewear, with many declaring a £26 sports bra from Next as the ultimate solution for comfortable and supportive workouts.

High Praise for Support and Comfort

The Active Sports High Impact Dry Tech Non Pad Bra has garnered enthusiastic reviews from customers, particularly those who enjoy running. One sporty shopper stated it was 'the best for running', while others highlighted its ability to 'control unwanted bounce'. Additional feedback praised the bra for being 'comfy' and fitting 'really well'.

Next describes the product as 'ideal for running, HIIT, aerobics and intense cardio'. It is designed to offer 'full coverage' using 'durable fabrics' and incorporates 'moisture-wicking technology' to keep wearers dry. The bra is non-wired and non-padded, featuring interchangeable straps for extra support and a racer back option.

Sizing, Colours and Shopper Insights

The bra is available in four colours: black, coral, pink, and white. It comes in band sizes from 32 to 42 and cup sizes ranging from B to G, catering to a wide variety of body types.

In the reviews, shopper Mabel expressed relief, saying, "Glad that I bought this. I have so much trouble when buying bras, this had to be the one." Another reviewer named Natasha called it "by far the best fit" she had tried, noting its good coverage and the fact it was a repeat purchase for her.

However, one piece of advice emerged from a three-star review by a fuller-busted customer. They recommended that others might want to consider going up a band size from their usual measurement for a less restrictive feel during high-impact activities.

A Standout Find for Runners

The most effusive praise came from runners who have struggled to find the right support. One customer who recently took up running said the bra was "very supportive, comfortable and it controls a lot of the unwanted bounce."

Another detailed review read: "I have tried so many sports bras over the years for running... but this is amazing. Lovely soft fabric, gives some shape whilst still containing the bounce... So for me best bra found for running and highly recommend."

While this Next bra is a clear favourite, the market offers alternatives for those seeking a deal. These include the Stamina Seamless Sports Bra from Sweaty Betty, reduced to £17.50, and Gymshark's Vital Sports Bra, discounted to £16 from £32.
