What does it mean to have an "intelligent bra"?
The Swijin sports bras are the first and only intelligent sports bra on the market. The high-tech materials used allow the bra to literally mold around your unique body shape.
To see the magic happen, the Swijin Sports Bras require activation. Sounds difficult - it is not, we promise. It's two simple steps:
Make It Yours:
Wash: Wash before wearing (max 30°C), then let it air dry. This activates the fabric to
mold to your shape. (For American machines: warm wash, max 86°F. No dryer.)
Workout: It may feel snug at first—don’t worry! Your body heat helps the fabric adapt as
you move, becoming more comfortable and supportive. -
What is the biggest size Swijin serves?
Currently the biggest size of our medium- as well as our high-impact bras is a D-cup.
Soon we will also launch the high-impact Schuggi Ultra Sports Bra for cup sizes from B-G. -
Why does the Freeli Bra have a pocket?
The Freeli Bra was developed in close collaboration with female endurance athletes. These women asked us to please make sure that in the future they will be able to carry their gels, keys,.. comfortably for their longruns/drives or at competitions. We listened closely and lived up to our promise to be the sportswear brand for women by women.
Therefore, the Freeli Bra is designed to have a well-sized pouch/pocket in the front. -
Why are the Swijin Bra designs have a much lower cut under the arms compared to other sports bras? Why do I have arm pit boobs showing?
During the 97 iterations with elite athletes when developping the Swijin Sports Bras, many of the athletes complained that conventional sports bras severely restrict their full-range of arm motion and thus hinder them to perform at their full potential.
We stand by our promise to take women seriously and to create sportswear truly made for active women. Therefore, our Sports Bras have a design with a much lower cut under the arms.
This might feel strange when you put on the bra for the first time as you are used to sports bras from other brands. But we promise, the intelligent Swijin Bras will - thanks to the high-tech materials - start to grow to your unique body shape once you begin exercising in them.
Here is a podcast which addresses the Swijin 'Arm Pit Boob' (forward to around 26:50 to listen to the 'Arm Pit Boob') - '4 to 5 wears and it went away - an evolution'

What materials are used in your bras?
Swijin aims to use simple material blends in order to allow for recycling in the future. You find detailed information on the materials used as well as the supply chain transparency right on every product page as well as when scanning the QR Code on your product.
The majority of our products use a combination of 59% Microfibre Polyamide, 41% Elastane (LYCRA®). The Schnuggi Bras consist of 100% bio-based and bio-degradable materials: 80% Bio-Based Polyamide, 20% Biodegradable Elastane -
Do you offer plus-size sports bras?
At the moment the biggest bra size is a D-cup.
The Schnuggi Ultra high-impact Sports Bra will be available soon and covers a size-range to G-cups. -
Can I use the bras also to go swimming?
The Swijin Sports bras were developped with combined sports - like triathlon, swimrunning, crossfitting,.. - in mind. The materials used ensure that the Swijin Bras are the fastest drying sports bras on the market (scientifically proven).
So, the sports bras (also in combination with the Swijin Bottoms) are ideal to also be used as swim wear and under wetsuits/trisuits. -
Do the bras have adjustable straps?
The Sports Bras currently available do not require adjustable straps as the innovative materials will adjust to your unique body shape - thanks to washing and your body heat.
-
Why is the Freeli Bra cut so high in the front?
This is a deliberate choice. This bra was designed with swimmers in mind. It is often the case that this area of the bra is pulled down by the water when diving or swimming, creating a 'drag effect'. This is completely avoided with the high cut. Plus this offers our athletes the choice of adding a gel pack or two into the front hidden pocket!
Care
-
How do I best care for my Swijin products?
Wash
European machines: Wash at maximum 30°C
US machines: Warm wash setting no more than 86°F
Tip: When handwashing, make sure the water feels warm to the touch and never hot.
Laundry bags extend the lifespan of your product by reducing fiber breakage by 80%. We love the GUPPYFRIEND® because it also prevents synthetic microfibers from entering into our rivers and oceans.
Hang Dry
Do not tumble dry
Do not dry clean
Do not bleach -
Do the bras shrink after washing?
Different to other conventional sports bras, the Swijin Bras do not further shrink but washing and wearing them allows the materials to do their magic and mold to your unique body shape.
For maximum support, we advise you to order according to the recommended Swijin size. However, if you prefer a more relaxed fit, please order one size bigger. -
Why do the Swijin Sports Bras require an activation?
The Swijin Bra is more than just a sports bra—it’s an innovation designed to give you a perfect fit.
To benefit from the high-tech materials and design of the Swijin Sports Bras, the bras require activation.
Sounds difficult - it is not, we promise. It's two simple steps:
Wash: Wash before wearing (max 30°C), then let it air dry. This activates the fabric to
mold to your shape. (For American machines: warm wash, max 86°F. No dryer.)
Workout: It may feel snug at first—don’t worry! Your body heat helps the fabric adapt as
you move, becoming more comfortable and supportive.
Important notice to everyone who wants to compete in the Swijin Bras: Like with good running/biking shoes that you want to break in before competing in them, make sure that your bra was activated properly.
