Why are sports bras essential for horse riding?

Guest writer and DVR sports bra owner, Poppy, tells us why sports bras are an essential for every horse rider and why...
.
Sports Bras. An essential item of clothing for every equestrian athlete. When you find the ‘perfect’ sports bra that combines comfort, support and style you are bound to live in it… day in, day out.
.
Finding this ‘perfect’ sports bra is often surprisingly difficult. As a girl who plays a vast array of sports, as well as riding, I know there is nothing worse than having an ill fitting sports bra that is unsupportive, too tight, too loose or bulky. You want to have the best fit possible, especially when riding! Having tried and tested DVR Equestrian sports bras, I know I have found my ‘perfect’ fit and I urge you to try one for yourself.
.
Here are some reasons why I love my DVR sports bra so much:
.

.

1. Superb support

I have a larger bust which can often make some aspects of riding uncomfortable. By having this great support, I feel secure, comfortable and confident which makes my ride far more enjoyable (especially sitting trot!). The compression technology in the fabric helps to improve circulation in exercise too, so there really are so many more benefits that you won't even know of. The band is comfortable yet holding so once the bra is on it's not going to be moving about or rising up.

2. Contoured fit

Without getting too technical, due to the flat seams, printed labels and 360 degree stretch lycra fabric, the DVR sports bra really does provide an optimum fit. The racer back panel helps with shoulder movement so that you are not restricted in the saddle. Not only does it make you feel great, they also look fab.

3. Doing your bit for the environment

.
These bras are made from recycled ocean plastics, made using econyl fabric which is created from plastics pulled up from the ocean. This means that you are not only helping yourself by buying a DVR sports bra, but you are also helping to clean our oceans. The creation process of the fabric is also a lot more environmentally friendly than the creation of virgin polyester or polyamide.
.
These sports bras are currently available in two colours (sand and white) both of which are great for at home training but also under competition wear as “invisible” under show shirts!
.
I really can’t recommend the DVR Equestrian sports bras enough; I love mine and I hope you try one for yourself too. Remember, if its your first DVR purchase be sure to use the discount code ‘MYFIRSTBUY’ for 10% off, enjoy!
