What’s the difference between our Breast Support System (BSS) and a sports bra?
Without getting into the complicated science of breasts and bra technology, the BSS is fit for purpose, while sports bras are not.
The best way to explain it is through this testimonial from an active-duty US Marine servicewoman, which shows you the lived experience of military duty in a sports bra vs. a Tigers Eye BSS.
The difference between military women wearing sports bras vs. specialised support – from 60% experiencing issues with sports bras, to 100% choosing to wear our BSS again 😉
Bras should be like boots – you wouldn’t wear sliders on shift, so don’t wear a bra designed for an hour in the gym when you spend 8+ hours in full gear.

In the past few weeks, you’ve learnt a lot about exactly why breast support is needed for servicewomen.
Now it’s time to bust some myths and clarify some things about sports bras in the military.

Ukraine's Typhoon crew – the country's first all-female drone unit – just made The Washington Post's "We won't win this war without women." They're holding the line in kit that wasn't built for them.
Imagine what they could do without gear working against them. That's exactly why we built the BSS. Breasts are often an overlooked element; like this testimonial quotes, with proper breast support the chest becomes “one less thing to worry about”.
