# Technical Sports Bras Nike Flyknit Sports Bras Use the Same Technology as the Revolutionary Shoes By Ell Smith | Published 2017-07-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-flyknit-sports-bras References: [fashionista](https://fashionista.com/2017/07/nike-flyknit-sports-bra) & [nike](https://www.nike.com/us/en_us/?ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.ca%2F) The [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovation-efforts) [Flyknit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flyknit-venture) sports bras will utilize the same precise knit construction that revolutionized the shoe industry. In order for athletes to achieve a full range of motion, sports bras have to be equal parts comfortable and functional. Sports bras are typically designed one of two ways: with "compression," which tightly fits across the wearer's chest to limit movement or "encapsulation," the more common of the two with a design that creates cups for each breast. The one-size-fits all mentality of the garment makes sports bras a necessary evil for athletes. The Nike Flyknit sports bra incorporates both of these designs to produce a support garment that's breathable and flexible enough to comfortably fit the wearer. The bra is designed to be made of just two pieces of fabric and promises to be stretchier, airier and more supportive than ever before. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.2/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Sports](https://www.trendhunter.com/sports) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Technical Sports Bras:** Innovations in sports bra design that incorporate both compression and encapsulation. - **Nike Flyknit Technology:** Utilizing Nike Flyknit technology to enhance sports bra performance. - **Two-piece Fabric Design:** Creating sports bras with just two pieces of fabric for a more comfortable and supportive fit. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Athletic Apparel:** Incorporating innovative knit constructions into athletic apparel for improved performance. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Developing specialized fabrics for sports bra production to improve functionality and comfort. - **Sporting Goods Retail:** Providing customers with advanced sports bras that balance function and comfort through cutting-edge technology. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hi-Tech Breast-Supporting Sports Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/techfit-control-bra.md) - [High-Performance Sports Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-performance-bra.md) - [Sustainable Sports Essentials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/workout-ready-sports-bra.md) - [Temperature-Regulating Sports Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temperature-regulating-sports-bra.md) - [Elevated Layered Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-layered-bra.md) - [Knitted Breathable Dynamic Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flyknit-venture.md) - [Redefined Comfort-Forward Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flexwire-bras.md) - [Flexible Underwire Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/everflexing-bra.md) - [Comfort-Focused Shapewear Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapewear-bra.md)
