About this technology

Overview

Protogs, Inc.'s halter-like garment is not only a modesty aid to curb mammary bounce made of a knit interlining and a nylon mesh outer shell. It is a carefully engineered restraint and support device, deriving from NASA space suit technology, intended to prevent shoulder and back strains, abrasions and other problems encountered by women runners and joggers, particularly those with large breasts.
