Because your girls deserve better than “meh.”

Dear runner, walker, gym-goer, or accidental participant in a 5K because your friend bribed you with brunch —

They bounce. They chafe. They shift. They sometimes give you origami boobs after a wash. But when they work? Magic. Pure magic.

So we polled a group of active women—from seasoned runners to folks who only recently upgraded from “whatever was clean-ish”—to get the real scoop. Here’s what we learned (plus a few giggles and good advice along the way).
