Anita Firm Support Front Closure Sports Bra Review
Reviewed by Rosemary Knight
The Anita Firm Support Sports Bra has got to be the most comfortable bra I have ever worn. It is primarily a sports bra but as an arthritis sufferer I find this bra invaluable. A really good bra must provide excellent support, feel good on the skin and also look fantastic. This Anita bra ticks all of these boxes.
The Anita bra is available in three shades, white, black and desert and comes in cup sizes A – E, 30 – 44, so there is a great choice of sizes to suit every figure. I received the desert nude shade bra, which is great for wearing under my tops, without being visible underneath.
The bra opens and closes very easily at the front with a simple soft backed hook and eye fastening, which makes dressing and undressing quick and easy, especially for someone like myself who has difficulty in wearing back fastening bras. One extra feature which I particularly like is the Velcro-type fastening on the front of the strap, which makes it so easy to adjust. Before I discovered this amazing bra, I always had to fiddle about trying to adjust the awkward clips before I could actually put on a bra. Now I can actually adjust the bra quickly and easily while I am wearing it. I hate it when my bra straps slip down my shoulders and show under my clothes, but with the fully adjustable straps, there is no chance of this happening. Having severe arthritis makes it extra hard to get dressed but the Anita bra has made it much easier. Instead of struggling trying to reach round my back to do up my bra or asking my husband to help, I can now get dressed much more quickly. The bra also looks stylish and provides excellent support.
The Anita bra is made from a mixture of nylon, polyester and elastane and is soft, light and very comfortable with seamless cups and a soft microfibre underbust band, with no ugly wires to poke out. The cups provide support for the breasts when taking part in sports as there is nothing more uncomfortable than trying to run with an ill-fitting bra! The breathable microfibre material ensures that the wearer remains perspiration free and dry.
This bra would also be suitable for anyone who has had surgery for breast cancer or reconstruction as it lifts and supports the breasts, immobilising them by pressing them close to the body. The front fastener would also make it ideal for post-surgery patients to wear.
The Anita bra is suitable for a variety of wearers, not just as a sports bra, but for people who have a variety of medical needs and require a bra which not only looks good but which is fantastically comfortable too.
