What makes the Jog kokoon+ strong support post-mastectomy bra so easy to move?
Returning to sport can be a real breath of fresh air for you, and more than ever, you need to feel free to move. That's why we've added elastane to the fabric of this bra. More stretchy, it follows your every move without the bra getting in the way. The swimmer's back on this sports bra also frees the shoulder blades for greater ease of arm movement.
What makes the Jog kokoon+ post-mastectomy bra so comfortable?
All adjustments for this sports bra are made in the front. The front opening makes it easy to put on. The front hooks allow you to adjust the back. Finally, the shoulder adjustment enhances shoulder comfort. Add to this the soft fabric and seamless interior to respect skin sensitivity, and this bra feels like a second skin.
How do I install the prosthesis on the Jog kokoon+ high support post-mastectomy bra?
A pocket on each side of the sports bra makes it easy to slip in a breast prosthesis.
Why is it essential to protect the chest during exercise?
Sport means exposing your breasts, which are fragile and essentially supported by the skin, to far greater stresses than in everyday life. Irrespective of your cup size or age, they are subjected to movements and bounces that cause them to bear up to five times their own weight, depending on the intensity of the exercise. A sports bra offers support, comfort and protection, while protecting them from impact, pain and premature sagging.
