ABSTRACT:
The sports bra comprises two front panel sections with each front panel section being a mirror image of the other and including a main body portion and an upwardly extending wide strap forming portion and a rear panel section including a body portion and two upwardly extending wide strap forming portions. The body portion of the rear panel section is attached on each side edge thereof to one of the main body portions of one of the front panel sections and the upper ends of each strap forming portion are attached to the upper end of one of the strap forming portions of one of the front panel sections. The rear panel section includes two elastic strap reinforcing bands which extend from the upper end of one of the strap forming portions angularly downwardly to the opposite side edge of the rear panel section to form cross strap members. The sports bra has arm holes and a neck hole which are defined between the areas of joining of the front and rear panel sections. Securement means are provided at opposing end edges of the mirror image front panel sections for securing the two front panel sections together when the bra is worn. Each of the front panel sections has a plurality of darts with the darts being positioned in such a manner as to form the body section with pouches that extend outwardly from the body when the bra is secured around the body of the wearer.
