Nike Indy

As a nursing parent, a supportive sports bra is really essential to running! I appreciate that the Nike Indy Zip allows me to run in comfort and offer quick nursing access to my little one! I like the amount of padding and structure it provides. It's super comfortable, sleek looking, and fits well. I'm usually right on the line between medium and large but the size large fits by 36C chest comfortably. The fabric is nice and I appreciate Nike's commitment to zero carbon, but I would love to see performance wear in general move away from synthetics. Overall, it is good and what I needed to get back to running comfortably postpartum.

This bra is supportive without feeling tight or restrictive. I wear this for high-intensity circuit workouts and it keeps everything in place while still being really comfortable. The fabric feels premium and dries quickly, and I love that the pads are built in (no more removable cups getting bunched up in the wash!!!). Only downside: the cut around the underarm/ribcage area can emphasize that spot instead of smoothing it, so just be aware if that’s something you’re sensitive about. It’s not something that I have felt self-conscious about before and felt like this bra was emphasizing it, but that may be the trade-off for the freedom of movement plus support. Overall, sleek, comfortable, and great for sweaty workouts.

I haven't had a chance to wear this for any high impact exercise yet, but on a brisk walk around the neighborhood, this bra kept me well-supported and the band doesn't roll or shift. It's very compressive so it was a bit of a struggle to pull the front together to zip up, but once on it didn't feel overly tight. Maybe going up a size would have made it easier to put on without sacrificing support. Nevertheless, I think it will hold up well at my next dance fitness class!
