Defensive Sports Bras

Jennifer Cutrona's Booby Trap Bras are Meant to Keep Runners Safe

The Booby Trap Bras are a collection of sports bras that promote self-defense. Designed by Jennifer Cutrona, each bra features a front pocket which is big enough for either pepper spray or a small knife.

After being attacked by man who had been lurking along the wooded path of her usual trail, Cutrona sewed a sheath into her sports bra so she could carry a knife whenever she runs alone. Shortly after, the fitness guru launched a whole line of patented bras, which offer support and safety for fellow female runners.

Cutrona produces two versions of her sports bras, which are known as Booby Trap Bras. While the Just In Case Knife design features a small pocket for a knife, the Just In Case Pepper Spray Bras offer a slightly bigger pocket for pepper spray cans.
