Hey guys, if you\u2019ve ever stocked cheerleading gear, you know how many random questions come up that aren\u2019t in any generic product sheet. Last week I got a DM that stopped me in my tracks: \u201cWhat\u2019s the warranty on your cheer bras?\u201d I didn\u2019t just stumble over the answer then\u2014this question\u2019s one I get all the time, so today I\u2019m breaking down exactly how our warranty works, why it\u2019s built the way it is, and what every cheer squad coach, team manager, or gear rep needs to know about buying these bras for their crew. Cheerleading bra<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

First off, let\u2019s cut the crap: cheer bras are not regular sports bras. I\u2019ve been supplying these for over seven years, and I\u2019ve seen the difference between a bra made for a pickup game and one made for tumbling, stunting, and flying. These bras don\u2019t just sit there\u2014they\u2019re getting pulled when someone nails a back handspring, stretched over 180 degrees during a stunt, and sweat through after 10 hours of camp practice. That\u2019s why our warranty isn\u2019t the same as what you\u2019d get for a yoga bra or a generic sports bra. It\u2019s built for the chaos of cheer life.<\/p>\n

So what is<\/em> the warranty, exactly? Let\u2019s keep it real, no fine print. For all our standard cheer bras (think our best-selling compression styles, mid-support ones for base girls, and even the flowy performance bras for flyers), we offer a 12-month warranty from the date you receive your order. That\u2019s not me pulling a random number out of thin air\u2014we tested this for two years before we locked it in. We had 50 cheer squads of all levels (from middle school to varsity, plus a few all-star teams) test our bras through an entire season of practice, competitions, and camps. The breakdown rate on defects was super low, so 12 months felt like a fair, realistic timeline. No hoops to jump through for normal defects, no ridiculous \u201cyou must return the original packaging\u201d garbage, either.<\/p>\n

But wait\u2014what counts<\/em> as a warranty claim? Let\u2019s be specific, because this is where a lot of suppliers hide fine print. Warranty covers manufacturing defects that pop up during normal use. That means things like a seam that splits on its own after 2 weeks (not because a flyer yanked it too hard mid-lift), a underwire that pokes through the fabric on its own, or the elastic band that loses all stretch within the first 6 months (not because you washed it with a load of jeans or dried it on high heat). We\u2019ve all seen the posts on cheer group chats about bras that fall apart after one practice\u2014we don\u2019t send those out, so if that happens, we\u2019ll fix it.<\/p>\n

What doesn\u2019t<\/em> count? This is important too, because it\u2019s not us being strict\u2014it\u2019s keeping prices fair for everyone. Warranty doesn\u2019t cover damage from misuse. That includes washing them with harsh chemicals (like bleach), drying them in a dryer, cutting or modifying the bra in any way (I\u2019ve seen some squads trim straps to make them shorter, which obviously breaks construction), or using them for something other than cheer practice\/competition (like a cross-training bra\u2014we have those for that, buy those if that\u2019s your thing). It also doesn\u2019t cover normal wear and tear, like pilling from practice mats or fading after a full season of sun and sweat. These bras are designed to last, but they\u2019re not indestructible\u2014you\u2019ll get pilling on the fabric after a few months, that\u2019s totally normal, not a defect.<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s talk about why we set this up this way. When I first started out, I worked for a big sports apparel company that treated cheer bras like they were the same as any other athletic gear. Their warranty was 90 days, but you\u2019d get stuck in a nightmare process if you had a claim\u2014they\u2019d ask for photos, a receipt, proof you bought it from an authorized retailer, and sometimes even have you ship the old bra back to them for \u201cinspection\u201d (which could take 4 weeks). I hated that. Cheer squads can\u2019t wait 4 weeks for a new bra for a competition next month. That\u2019s why our process is way simpler: if you have a valid claim, send us a photo (that\u2019s it\u2014no need to ship the old one back, save yourself the hassle), and we\u2019ll either ship you a replacement bra or issue a 100% refund, no questions asked. We process these claims within 3 business days, not 3 weeks. That\u2019s non-negotiable for us, because I\u2019ve been that coach scrambling for a new bra the night before state, and it sucks.<\/p>\n

I also want to address the elephant in the room: why is the warranty not longer, like 2 years? Let\u2019s get real about cheer bras and how people use them. The average cheer squad practices 3-4 times a week, plus weekend competitions, for 8-10 months out of the year. That\u2019s a lot of wear on a garment. Over time, even the best materials will break down\u2014elastic stretches, fabrics thin out, seams get loose from repeated movement. A 2-year warranty would mean covering normal wear and tear, and that would make our bras way more expensive to buy, which isn\u2019t fair to the squads that take care of their gear. We\u2019d rather keep our prices affordable (we\u2019re mid-range, not the crazy expensive luxury brands) and stand behind manufacturing defects than jack up prices for something that\u2019s just part of using the bra.<\/p>\n

Wait, what about bulk orders for entire squads? A lot of our customers are team managers or cheer gym owners ordering 20, 30, even 50 bras at a time. Does the warranty apply to bulk orders? Absolutely\u2014same 12-month timeline, same claim process. We even have a little extra perk for bulk buyers: if you have multiple defects in a single bulk order, we\u2019ll work with you to get replacements or refunds for all the defective ones without making you submit a separate claim for each bra. That saves you time when you\u2019re dealing with an entire team\u2019s gear.<\/p>\n

I get it, a lot of you are probably thinking, \u201cMy old supplier\u2019s warranty was shorter\u2014why is yours longer?\u201d That\u2019s the thing: most cheap cheer bras out there (the ones that are $10-$15 each) have a 30-day or 60-day warranty, and that\u2019s because they\u2019re made with cheap fabric and thin seams that break almost immediately. Our bras are made with moisture-wicking fabric that doesn\u2019t hold sweat, reinforced double seams on all the high-stress areas, and elastic that\u2019s rated for thousands of stretches without losing shape. We test every lot of bras before they ship, so defects are rare\u2014but when they do happen, we own it.<\/p>\n

Another common question: can I get an extension on the warranty if I buy a care kit or something? The short answer is no, but honestly? We don\u2019t think you need it. Our care guidelines are super simple, and if you follow them, your bras will last way past the 12-month warranty. The care rules are: hand wash cold, line dry only, don\u2019t iron them, don\u2019t dry clean them. That\u2019s it. No fancy products, no complicated steps. I know it\u2019s easier to toss them in the washing machine and dryer, but line drying will make the elastic last 2-3 times longer. We\u2019ve tested that\u2014so many customers tell us their bras last 18 months or more when they follow those steps, which is way longer than our warranty covers.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s also talk about what happens if you buy a used bra\u2014wait, no, that\u2019s not a thing we do. All our bras are new when they ship, so the warranty starts when you get them, not when someone else used them. If you\u2019re buying from a third-party reseller, that\u2019s a whole other story\u2014those bras aren\u2019t covered by our warranty, because we don\u2019t know their history or how they were cared for. Always buy from a reputable supplier, that\u2019s the easiest way to make sure you get the warranty you deserve.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve seen so many cheerleaders settle for bras that hurt or fall apart because they think that\u2019s just how cheer bras are. We started this company because we wanted to change that\u2014make a bra that works for cheer, is affordable, and that we actually stand behind. The warranty is just one part of that. It\u2019s not a sales gimmick; it\u2019s a promise that if we mess up and send you a bra that\u2019s defective, we\u2019ll fix it. No runaround, no excuses, no waiting.<\/p>\n
