Hi, I’m Katy! I’m pleased to share some insider tips on traveling and bra care. Mostly because it’s my mission for 25 + years to help women find the best bras for their bodies, but also because I travel – a lot. In all of my years of flying, driving, and crisscrossing around the map, I’ve learned a thing or two about packing bras in the suitcase.
3 key factors in choosing the best travel bras
1. Comfort
Travel often involves a mix of activities like sightseeing, walking, or lounging. A comfortable bra that moves with you and adapts to your body’s movements enhances overall comfort.
Wireless bras are perfect for long journeys and diverse activities, providing a comfortable and adaptable fit. Without wires, they minimize the risk of poking or discomfort, making them especially beneficial for extended flights or car rides.
2. Easy Packing
Bras that are easy to pack, such as those with soft, flexible materials, take up less space and can be easily folded or rolled. This helps maximize space in your luggage and keeps your packing organized.
3. Dry Quickly
If your travels include activities like hiking, trekking, or water sports, quick-drying bras are practical because they dry quickly after getting wet. This is particularly useful if you get caught in the rain or participate in water-related activities. Additionally, quick-drying bras allow you to pack fewer bras while maintaining hygiene, saving space in your luggage, and reducing the overall weight.

(2) Business Travel
For business trips, T-shirt bras offer a polished look under professional attire, such as blouses, shirts, and dresses. They provide the needed support and shape while maintaining a seamless appearance.
(3) Cultural and Historical Tours
Whether you're visiting historical sites, museums, or cultural landmarks, T-shirt bras provide comfort and a clean silhouette under a variety of clothing styles, ensuring you're comfortable throughout the day.
(4) Family Vacations
During family trips, T-shirt bras are a practical choice as they offer comfort for long days filled with activities and can be easily paired with various casual outfits.
(5) Leisure and Relaxation
Even on more relaxed vacations, such as beach holidays or spa retreats, T-shirt bras can be worn under casual wear or light clothing, providing a smooth and comfortable fit.
(6) Adventure Travel (with Casual Days)
While T-shirt bras might not be ideal for high-impact activities, they are perfect for the more casual days of an adventure trip when comfort and a neat appearance are desired.
(7) Short Trips and Weekend Getaways
For short trips where packing light is essential, T-shirt bras are versatile enough to be worn under most outfits, reducing the need for multiple types of bras.
Sports Bras
If you have outdoor or strenuous activities on your agenda, then you would definitely want to pack at least one Sports bras. I recommend at least one, because if you wear one and need to hand wash it, then you’ll have a backup ready to go the following day while your other bra is drying.
Which Travel Type Should Choose a Sports Bra?
(1) Hiking, Trekking, and Camping
Sports bras provide the necessary support and moisture-wicking properties for outdoor activities, helping to keep you comfortable and dry during long hikes or treks.
(2) Climbing and Biking
For activities like rock climbing or mountain biking, sports bras offer the support needed to handle the physical demands and movement.
(3) Wildlife Tours
For wildlife tours, where you might spend long hours moving or sitting, sports bras offer comfort and support, particularly in rugged terrains or during more active excursions.
