Twelve C cup female volleyball athletes were recruited in this study. Markers were attached to the subject’s nipples and trunk to calculate relative 3D breast kinematics data. The subject had to wear four kinds of bras (no bra, normal bra, fashion bra, and sport bra) to evaluation of breast support in the mediolateral, anterioposterior, and vertical directions. Results of current study showed that the sports bra was effective in reducing the amplitude of breast displacement, velocity, acceleration, and comfort scale during jumping than no bra situation, everyday bra, and fashion bra. Future studies should be recruited more subjects and different types of sports bras in order to identify 3D breast kinematics with different bras during jumping maneuvers.
