ABSTRACT:
A breathable and moisture permeable bra that is stylish, provides adequate support and is comfortable to wear is provided. Materials, such as wicking materials, for use in the bra, as well as other active wear, are also provided. The brassiere may include breast-supporting pads having a pad component including a perforated, molded foam cup encased by an inner and a first outer cloth layers and a second outer cloth attached to the outside of the pad component. The cloths may include materials that are breathable and may have wicking properties. In addition to the pad, the brassiere may include a wicking layer adapted to lie adjacent a wearer's skin to pull moisture away from the skin. The brassiere may also include an outer layer adapted to lie most distal the user's skin, that may provide an aesthetically pleasing exterior of the brassiere.
