5 Top Cotton, Wirefree Bras

You want your bras to be comfortable, but when they come with an underwire and straps that can dig into your shoulders, that’s not really comfortable.

‍

Since you wear bras for most of the day in direct contact with your skin, they should be made from soft, breathable materials like organic cotton and not synthetic fibers.

‍

So here are 5 sustainable brands that make cotton bras:

Bralettes starting at $55

Conscious Clothing's Yoga Bralette combines hemp and organic cotton fabric. The hemp provides antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, preventing odor retention.

Conscious Clothing repurposes the remaining fabric scraps from its studio by selling them in zero-waste fabric scrap Maker's Boxes or using them as napkins, washcloths, and other household items.
