This sports bra is unbelievably comfortable whilst managing to be completely supportive. True to size, it gives flexibility from third trimester, immediately post partum and beyond with the band extender. The straps are easy to use, and a must for easy breastfeeding friendly outfits. I have two and wear them on rotation. Cannot recommend enough.
Comfy bra and i found this really supportive for every day tasks. However I do have large breasts and this bra is not for high impact sports. I've tried to go back to exercise and any type of running activity this bra does not support my chest through that movement unfortunately. The search continues. 3 star rating as its not good for high impact, but a Comfy everyday bra would have got 5 stars.
Hi Rachel,
Thank you for your feedback, I'm really pleased to hear that you find the bra comfortable and supportive for everyday wear. However, I'm sorry to hear that it hasn’t given you the support you need for higher-impact activities. I'd love to help double check the fit to ensure you’re getting the best support possible. Sometimes, adjusting the size can make a big difference! Alternatively, our Freyja Sports Bra might be a better option depending on your cup size.
If you’d like to double check the fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out - I’d love to help! Claire x
Daughter loved her Xmas gift of the green pair so bought a grey pair too. Very comfy, and a great fit, definately squat proof, with pockets which were a welcome bonus!
The grey is a subtle mauve-y shade which is lovely!
Thank you so much for your lovely review - I am so pleased to hear your Christmas gift was such a hit! Claire x
I love the bra it’s super comfy however I’ve only worn it 3 times, washed on a low heat and air dried yes it has gone very bobbly, which is a bit frustrating.
Hi Amber, I'm so sorry to hear this - particularly as you loved the leggings so much – that definitely shouldn't have happened! We take the quality of our products very seriously, so I'd love to get the bra back to have a look and swap it for a replacement. Please drop me an email at claire@natalactive.com and I'll get this sorted for you right away. Claire x
Thank you so much for your review - I am so pleased you love your leggings! Claire x
I’m not sure what the difference between this sports bra is and a regular nursing bra is. I find nursing bras in general give very little support, and this doesn’t seem to either. I would not particularly recommend for the price as a go to nursing bra for women who like to work out and have support. It’s also awkward and fiddly to get on. Would suggest just buying a normal sports bra.
Hi Chloe, I am really sorry to hear the bra didn't live up to your expectations. It sounds like you might not have the right size if you are not getting the support, as this bra is designed specifically for high-impact support and has been worn by thousands of mums – I personally run in mine all the time! It was also named Best Nursing Sports Bra by Women's Running, so we know how well it performs for active mums. I'd really love to help you find the perfect fit, as getting the right size can make all the difference. If you would like to send me your measurements to help@natalactive.com along with some info on how postnatal you are, I can double check the sizing and put this right! Best wishes, Claire x
This bra is excellent! I made sure to check the fit guide before buying which is super accurate! The fit of this bra is absolutely spot on! It’s the best gym bra I’ve ever bought in terms of sizing. I actually get coverage, it stays in place and it’s super comfy! Can’t wait to use throughout my journey! I highly recommend and the material is brilliant quality!
Thank you so much for your incredible review. I am so glad you love the bra and trust me, you will be wearing it for years! Claire x
Wow! These leggings are absolutely phenomenal! The sizing was absolutely perfect and I ordered in my normal size to ensure they are going to fit me well throughout my pregnancy. These are the comfiest leggings I’ve worn while being pregnant, I highly recommend. I will be recommending them to everyone. The quality reminds me of gymshark so for the price it’s excellent for me!
Thank you so much for your incredible review - I am so pleased you love your leggings! Claire x
Style good, but just too small for the sizing (and I’m not large!) Sports bra recommended by physio, so thought I’d pay a bit more and get seemingly good one but really not with the money. All I want to do is lengthen the straps for the size of it and take it off at the end of the day. To top it off, they clearly don’t want returns and you easily risk not getting your money back if dared to have even looked at it. Wouldn’t recommend bra or business.
Hi Sarah,
I’m really sorry to hear you’re disappointed with your bra. This Vitality bra is in fact a crop-style bra, which doesn’t have adjustable straps, but we do offer the Artemis bra, which has fully adjustable straps and might be a better fit for your needs. This also goes up to a larger cup size so if you are finding the Vitality too small in the cups this would again be a better option. We dont advise sizing up for a better cup fit as you then lose the support.
I also wanted to address your concerns about our returns policy. As a small, mum-run business, I am as fair as possible with returns while also protecting my business. Occasionally (though thankfully extremely rarely), we receive worn or non-resellable items back, which is why we have policies in place to deter this. However, I always process legitimate returns within a day or two of them being booked into the warehouse. I can see you haven’t actually started a return for your item yet, so I’d be more than happy to help you with this if you’d like.
I do hope we can turn this around for you, and if you'd like any help finding a bra that works better for you, please let me know - I'd love to help!
Best,

Thank you for creating this sports bra. I’ve had loads of ‘non-maternity ones’ and this is honestly the best bra I’ve ever had! (With an added bonus of being BF friendly!) it’s exactly what mums need, supportive, comfortable, fashionable.
This is the third pair of natal active leggings that I own. I have two from my previous pregnancy in 2021 that I still wore even when not pregnant and that I am still wearing today, as well as these grey ones. They wash well, are very soft and hold up well during workouts.
Really enjoying wearing these leggings as they’re comfortable, especially over a growing bump - the tummy section makes you feel secure and there’s no need to worry about it pulling down when you exercise. Worn both around the house and to yoga, would recommend especially if you’re struggling to find comfortable trouser options in pregnancy.
I bought these shorts for cycling, as well as the black pocketed leggings for stretching (in size 10). They are great. Both made out of slightly different material, so the leggings are a bit more stretchy, whereas the shorts are slightly tighter. Hoping they will still fit me in a few months once the bump is bigger (I’m currently 26 weeks). Being tight is good though as they don’t ride up and keep evening compact. Would recommend!
One of my new pregnant friends recommended these leggings, and they did not disappoint. I’ve used them for all of my stretches and yoga since they arrived. They are so comfortable and fit well, with still room for growing bump. I bought size 10 which is my pre pregnant size, they are true to size and squat proof! I will probably have to start wearing them all day once the bump grows, I’m currently 26 weeks. Would recommend!
Thank you so much for your review Olivia and the great video and photo! I am so pleased you love your leggings! All the best for the rest of your pregnancy. Claire x
I have only given 4 stars as I find it really hard to find any bras that fully support me, however this is much better than most. I love the crossover back and the material is comfy. The latches work well for feeding. I would recommend.
This is the second of these hoodies that I've ordered as they are just the best - so soft and warm and they fit so well, even some time after pregnancy!
These leggings are brilliant, super comfortable and supportive, lovely fabric quality and super fit. Thank you!
I am really impressed by these leggings - so soft and buttery, comfortable, and supportive! I love the handy pockets on both sides. They make me feel much more motivated to exercise and when the weather warms up, I can imagine wearing them when out and about. They're not see through and I don't notice a VPL (which is my pet hat with leggings!). I bought two leggings and am in love!
Thank you for your lovely review Jennifer - these will be your leggings for life! Claire x
I can't recommend these enough! They are super comfy and stay up over the bump without me having to constantly pull them up throughout a workout. Also great to wear for popping to the shops or lounging in the house. A fantastic buy and worth every penny!
Thank you so much for your feedbck Laura - so glad you are loving your leggings. You will be wearing them long after the bump is gone too, I am sure! Claire x
Considering the hefty price tag I was so pleased to find this jumper super soft, stretchy and cosy. I like how long it is and that I can dress it up or down. Also love the colour and feeding from it is a breeze! Highly recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review - I am sure you will get lots of wear out of it, even long after you stop breastfeeding! Claire x
Really pleased with my new sports bra! The colour is so vibrant and I think it will work well for me post-pregnancy with feeding. I was a size 10/12 pre pregnancy and a 36C and a M is perfect for me at 26 weeks pregnant with plenty of space to expand. They are expensive but I waited for the sale and I think it was worth it!
Thank you so much for your lovely review - I am so glad you love your bra! Claire x
I bought these for my niece who is struggling to find anything that she feels comfortable to wear in her third trimester. She put these on and said they are perfect in every way. Comfortable, great support with the option to move the band to cover her bump, or have it low underneath for extra support as she gets bigger. The pockets are the cherry on top of these beautiful, thoughtfully designed leggins. She said she is ‘living in them’ - so I’ve ordered her another pair. She may need a C section, so these will also be great with the high waisted post op. All in all, one very happy niece!
Thank you so uch for your lovely review Jenny - I am so glad she loves them so much! Claire x
I love this hoodie! The quality is super good and the zipper is easy to open which makes it great when my little one needs to be fead
