Not only are there some fabulous walking-specific socks on the market, but they really will help cut down on blisters, athlete's foot, hot spots, rubbing and shoe odor because they absorb the sweat and with it the lure for the bacteria who feed on sweat and make shoes smell bad. While tube socks were a great sporting option in the '70s, we've come a long way and not only are they not the best option, they're not a good option at all. Athletic bras Formerly known as running bras, sport bras are an important piece of athletic equipment. They work by compressing the breasts against the chest and holding them in place so they have limited mobility. This prevents them from stretching out as you exercise.
Encapsulation sports bras work by supporting each breast individually up against the chest.
They are the preferred method of support for larger-breasted women, as they can provide more individual support to each breast without the breasts pouring over the top of the bra. Sports bras are not unlike regular bras in how much they vary in size and comfort level. Make sure to try your bra on before your purchase it. You'll be more active in it than your regular bras, so you'll want to make sure they fit properly. Sports bras are also made with moisture-wicking fabrics.
