About Us
Born from the belief that movement should feel good, whether you’re deep in a workout or just living your life, KoaKoa Active creates athleisure that works hard and rests easy. Our range of sports bras, leggings, tops, and shorts are made to move with you, from high-intensity training to laid-back lounging.
I bought these at the Comrades expo and wore them for the first time on race day. They are incredibly comfortable, the pockets are great, I love the high waist and I did not chafe! I'm in love! Thank you!
I absolutely love it! I tried it for the first time on a 60km run and it was so comfortable I didn't feel any rub anywhere.
Without a doubt, my only running bra from now on.
