If you have larger breasts you likely know how uncomfortable wearing a bra that isn't breathable can be. During a tough workout or on a hot Summer day, the last thing you want is a bra made of thick, itchy fabrics that does not allow your skin to breathe. No one wants to deal with uncomfortable boob sweat or chafing from an uncomfortable full coverage bra.

Moisture-wicking bras are a must if you have a larger chest. A plus size bra with moisture wicking fabric will allow your breasts to breathe and help wick away sweat to keep you cool and dry all day long. Whether you prefer an everyday bra with moisture wicking fabric or sports bras, there are breathable plus size bras in a range of styles.

Why Is Finding a Breathable Bra So Important for Someone With Larger Breasts?

Finding breathable bras is important for someone with larger breasts as this can help prevent chafing and skin irritation. A breathable bra made of moisture-wicking fabrics can help wick away sweat to keep you comfortably cool and dry throughout the day. If you have large breasts, chafing and sweating can be an issue for you. A breathable bra will help alleviate discomfort for everyday wear.

Do I Have to Sacrifice Support Just to Find a Breathable Bra?

No, you do not need to sacrifice support to find a breathable bra. Look for high quality, size inclusive brands like Glamorise that prioritize support and comfort for all sizes, including breathability. Glamorise carries a wide selection of supportive bras that have breathable, moisture-wicking properties.

Are Unlined or Lined/Molded Bras More Breathable?

Generally speaking, unlined bras are more breathable than lined styles as the cups are made of a single layer of fabric. This creates more airflow and offers a more breathable, lightweight fit than bras with thicker cups or heavier padding.

Can an Underwire Bra Still Be Breathable?

Yes, an underwire bra can still be breathable. Whether a bra has underwires or not does not correlate to its breathability. Many underwire bras feature moisture-wicking fabrics that wick sweat away to keep you cool and dry. The Front-Closure WonderWire Bra from Glamorise features breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics as well as underwires for support.

How Should I Care for My Breathable Bras?

Like other bras, hand washing is the best method to care for breathable bras. Hand washing in cool water will preserve the integrity of the fabrics, and help ensure your bra lasts a long time. If hand washing isn't a possibility for you, washing your breathable bras on a delicate cycle in a mesh lingerie bag is the next best thing.

You should always air dry your bras and never put them in the dryer. The high heat of the dryer can damage the fabrics, compromising the elasticity and support the bra provides. It can also warp the underwires and damage the shape of the bra. Hand washing and air drying are always the best options when it comes to caring for your breathable bras.
