  • the chest band 60 comprises rubber or latex.
  • the chest band 60 comprises material which, when subjected to a weight of 500g, stretches by between 15% and 80%.
  • the chest band 60 comprises material which, when subjected to a weight of 500g, stretches by between 35% and 55%.
  • the chest band 60 has a width of 15mm to 80mm.
  • the chest band 60 may have a width of approximately 40mm.
  • FIG 2 shows a back view of the sports bra 1 of Figure 1.

  • one or each of the hoops 80, 82 may be replaced by another member defining a channel, such as a U-shaped or a C-shaped member.
  • the sports bra 1 comprises first and second adjustment mechanisms for adjusting a length of the chest band 60. This can help to accommodate an increase in chest circumference of a wearer. Providing first and second adjustment mechanisms as opposed to a single adjustment mechanism increases the available range of adjustment in the length of the chest band 60, thus increasing the amount of growth of the wearer that the same sports bra 1 can accommodate.
  • the length of the chest band 60 can be adjusted by up to 5 inches via the first and second adjustment mechanisms.
  • the first and second adjustment mechanisms are positioned on respective first and second sides 78, 79 of the second end 74 of the rear member 70. The rear member 70 is thus located between the first and second adjustment mechanisms. This allows even or uneven adjustment of the chest band 60 on either side of the rear member 70, as may be required to help maintain alignment of the left and right bust sections 10, 20 with the bust.
  • the chest band 60 comprises a left portion 61 extending from the left bust section 10 to the second end 74 of the rear member 70, and a right portion 65 extending from the right bust section 20 to the second end 74 of the rear member 70.
  • the left and right portions 61, 65 comprise respective bands.
  • the free end 62 of the left portion 61 of the chest band 60 passes through the first channel defined by the first hoop 80 and is folded back on a remainder of the left portion 61 of the chest band 60 in use.
  • the free end 66 of the right portion 65 of the chest band 60 passes through the second channel defined by the second hoop 82 and is folded back on a remainder of the right portion 65 of the chest band 60.
  • free ends 62, 66 of the respective left and right portions 61, 65 of the chest band 60 are releasably attached to the remainders of the left and right portions 61, 65 of the chest band 60 to provide the respective first and second adjustment mechanisms.
  • the first and second adjustment mechanisms may provide continuous adjustment of the length of the chest band 60 within a defined range of adjustment.
  • the first and second adjustment mechanisms may comprise a hook and loop system such as Velcro®.
  • the left and right free ends 62, 66 may each comprise a plurality of hooks on a surface facing the remainder of the respective left and right portion 61, 65 of the chest band 60, and the remainder of the respective left and right portions 61, 65 of the chest band 60 each comprise a plurality of loops on a surface facing the respective plurality of hooks.
  • the locations of the hooks and loops may be reversed.
  • the first and second adjustment mechanisms provide adjustment of the length of the chest band 60 in discrete intervals. This can be advantageous compared to continuous adjustment because the discrete intervals may help to ensure even adjustment of the chest band 60 on either side of the rear member 70.
  • the first adjustment mechanism may comprise a first plurality of engagers 63 arranged at, e.g. regular, intervals on the remainder of the left portion 61 of the chest band 60, and a first engagement device 64 at the free end 62 of the left portion 61 of the chest band 60 for engaging with any one of the first plurality of engagers 63.
  • each of the first plurality of engagers 63 is a receiver configured to be able to receive and retain the first engagement device 64.
  • the second adjustment mechanism may comprise a second plurality of engagers 67 arranged at, e.g. regular, intervals on the remainder of the right portion 65 of the chest band 60, and a second engagement device 68 at the free end 66 of the second portion 65 of the chest band 60 for engaging with any one of the second plurality of engagers 67.
  • each of the second plurality of engagers 67 is a receiver configured to be able to receive and retain the second engagement device 68.

  • each of the first and second engagement devices 64, 68 may comprise: a hook, a button, or a second part of a two-part snap fastener.
  • the first engagement device 64 engages one of the first plurality of engagers 63. Engaging the first engagement device 64 in the furthest of the first plurality of engagers 63 from the rear member 70 provides the tightest configuration of the first adjustment mechanism.
  • the second engagement device 68 engages one of the second plurality of engagers 67. Engaging the second engagement device 68 in the furthest of the second plurality of engagers 67 from the rear member 70 provides the tightest configuration of the second adjustment mechanism.
  • the first and second engagement device 64, 68 are swan hooks.
  • Each of the remainders of the respective left and right portions 61 , 65 of the chest band 60 comprises engagers in the form of a plurality of, e.g. equally- spaced, pockets configured to receive the respective swan hook to adjust the length of the chest band 60.
