Cotton Non-Wired Bras: 5 reasons to make the switch!

This week we’re all about wireless bras. Ripping your bra off first thing when you get home? Maybe it's time to switch to cotton non-wired bras! Fully supportive, with zero digging-in feeling. Here are our top 5 reasons to try a wire-free bra.

Do non-wired bras give enough support?

We get it - when it comes to bras, support is a top priority. But rest assured, our non-wired bras provide you with all the support you need. Providing more support than a bralette, wireless bras are a great option for women with larger busts. Full support is provided through strategic construction, eliminating the need for annoying wires or plastic moulds. The wide and smooth chest band sits snugly under the bust, whilst wider straps and full-coverage cups work hard to provide a natural lift and side support. So there’s no need to worry about back pain!

No more racing to take your bra off when you get home with our super smooth seams! Non-wired bras get rid of the uncomfortable digging-in sensation that often comes with traditional wired bras. Check out this review from a lovely customer:

The best bra for everyday wear

Non-wired bras are perfect for everyday use. Find comfort when travelling without uncomfortable underwire. Made from soft cotton, these bras are comfortable enough to sleep in if you're looking for some light support, or check out our vest tops with hidden shelf. Can you exercise in non wired bras? The slightly-stretchy fabric and chest band allows for ease of movement, making them suitable for light exercise, like yoga, or a scenic hike!

A bra that adapts to you

These bras are made with you in mind! Our wireless bras are available in a range of band and cup sizes and elastic widths for maximum versatility, accommodating most sizes. You can make this bra your own: adjust the straps or cross them over to find your perfect fit, or add your own padding through the open seam for more shaping or for a bra with mastectomy support.

Our cotton bra is super soft against the skin, as well as being breathable, so is perfect for everyday wear.
