Abstract:

Aimed to investigate the shock-proof effect of women's sports bra and its wearing comfort, this study experimented on 7 types of sports bras made from the same fabric with similar size and thickness. With the help of 3-D motion capturing instrument, data on chest movements in bare chest as well as in running wearing of different sports bra were collected. According to the extreme difference of displacement amplitude of the breast relative to the trunk along with the percentage reduction in breast displacement before and after wearing, SPSS software was used for mathematical statistics to compare the shock-proof effect of sports bras, along with the subjective experiments to make comprehensive analysis. Suggestions are put forward to improve the modeling design of sports bra, which provides reference to the bra manufacturers for the development and production of sports bras. The result shows that the bras with crossover back design has the best shock-proof effect. On the other hand,widening the shoulder belts can reduce the pressure on the shoulder and improve the level of comfort.

Key words: sports bra, breast amplitude, shockproof effect, style of bra, 3-D motion capture
