The 8 Sports Bras Our Editors Actually Work Out In

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

Sports bras are a topic on which it seems like everyone has an opinion. If you're working out, they're a nonnegotiable essential, but it can be difficult to find your perfect fit. Some like light support, some need heavy support, some like strappy, sexy styles, and some won't wear anything that isn't black. We at POPSUGAR know how important a great sports bra is, so we asked some of our editors to talk about their favourite styles.

These picks are for everyone, whether you're a serious runner or prefer to flow through a yoga class. They're all cute and functional, two staples in our sports bra search. Plus, they're editor tested, and editor approved. What more could you ask for? Keep reading to shop our picks, and get ready for your next workout!

The North Face Stow N Go Bra

"If you're reading this questioning The North Face Stow N Go Bra ($60) being one of the best sports bras, let me tell you, don't knock it till you try it! This is my go-to bra for running, especially longer distances and races. It's your typical racerback bra, with moisture-wicking technology and a good amount of built-in ventilation. But the best part is the storage pocket front and centre. I have a smaller chest, but I have carried my iPhoneX in this pocket for multiple half marathons and not had any issues with it moving or falling out. If I'm not wearing leggings or shorts with pockets, or I just don't want to tack on a running belt for my miles, I stash my phone in this bra and it works perfectly. I feel completely supported as well." — Amy Schilinger, Senior Native Editor

"My workout routine calls for a sports bra that can handle a pretty low-impact routine, maybe some dance cardio. For me, this GapFit Eclipse Medium Support Strappy Sports Bra ($30, originally $40) is perfect and incredibly comfortable. You know that struggle to get your sports bra actually on your body? Yeah, with this one, it never happens. The fit is supportive, but never suffocating." - Hannah Weil McKinley, Content Director, Fashion and Shop

FP Movement Happiness Runs Tank

"As a small B size, this tight FP Movement Happiness Runs Tank ($30) doubles as a bra for me often! I absolutely love the length of it (it's more of a crop, so a bit longer than other bras), and because of the thicker, body-con material, I'm able to wear it as a bra. The high neckline and racerback cut are aesthetically appealing, too. I find it wicks sweat well and never really weighs me down. Plus, it can double as a tank if you have to go from workout to coffee, brunch, or errands." — AS

Outdoor Voices Athena Crop Top

"This Outdoor Voices Athena Crop Top ($45) provides the perfect amount of support for me. I love that it's a bra crop, so it's a bit longer than other sports bras. The fabric also doesn't show sweat at all, and there are so many colorways." — AS
