ABSTRACT:
A supportive brassiere designed for general usage, aerobics or other athletic activities, and/or nursing. The brassiere is designed to provide maximum support of the breasts during activity by holding the breasts separately and snugly while allowing the wearer to move comfortably and breathe freely. It is designed primarily for athletic use among women with moderate-to-large breasts, but it is also suitable for women with smaller breasts. Additionally, because of its adjustable design features, it can function effectively as a nursing brassiere. The invention is designed with an adjustable side closure and strong, individual, under-breast supports. The brassiere includes a pair of soft cups supported from above by adjustable, wide shoulder straps. The pair of soft cups are supported from below by adjustable, soft, inelastic supports, which may be fabric, that allow each cup to be adjusted individually. The brassiere also includes an adjustable closing on the side and a high, soft one-piece back, as well as a wide elastic rib band.
