A sports bra has a pair of cups joined by a cleavage portion between the proximate edges of the cups and a back strap portion between the distal edges of the cups. The cups and cleavage portion are made of cloth having substantially universal elasticity so as to provide adequate support. A rectangular panel made of cloth having substantially universal elasticity is fastened along its bottom and side edges to an inside wall of the cleavage portion of the bra to form a storage pouch of approximately credit card dimensions. A plurality of short hook and loop segments extending substantially fully across the upper inside edge of the panel with mating segments of hook and loop material oppositely fixed along the inside wall of the cleavage portion of the bra allows the pouch to be completely sealed while still affording the desired universal elasticity. Preferably, the panel is made of back-to-back pieces of cloth with the inner one being non-absorbent and the cleavage portion is also made of back-to-back pieces of cloth with the inner one being non-absorbent so as to allow the sports bra to be fully absorbent along its body contact surfaces and yet provide a no-absorbent storage pouch to protect its contents. A flat member may be disposed between the panel cloths to stiffen the storage pouch. |
