One essential clothing item that I pack when I travel is a sports bra. I love a good one. They’re like socks, you can never have enough. Some are good for running, some are good for cross-training, some are good for yoga and stretching. Jockey‘s created a new Tech Terry Performance Sports Bra and it’s awesome.
Here are some of it’s benefits that I really like:
- Moisture-wicking
- A pocket for your keys
- Breathable mesh panels
Now when I work out, I work out hard and with hard workouts come plenty of sweat. That’s why I like to workout at home by myself – my clothes can get down right funky. I don’t like funky. And I don’t like my clothes not smelling fresh even after I wash them. When I learned that fabric softeners mess up the wicking properties of sportswear, I had to cancel all plans of using them as freshening agents until I learned that Purex was coming out with a new fabric softener, Purex Crystals. [Disclosure: I became one of their Insiders last year.] Honestly and truly, they saved the day for me.
I didn’t know much about the science of fabric softeners and what they do to clothes but as an Insider, I quickly learned. I found out that Purex Crystals are a safe alternative to regular liquid fabric softener and that they don’t leave oil residue on clothes. I know for a fact that my performance sportswear was still doing the job after using the Crystals and that they smelled fresh. That’s all I needed to know. If you’re a fan of fabric softener and you could use a new sports bra, I’ve got a nice little giveaway for you.
