It's only when the weather finally gets warm enough to workout outside without a jacket that I actually have the passing thought that I may be jealous of kangaroos. Yes, you heard me correctly. Without a puffer or fleece with pockets to hold my phone, keys, wallet, mask, and power bar during my run, I'm left weighing the lesser of two evils every morning—do I wear another layer with pockets and drip sweat, or do I shove all of my earthly possessions between my boobs in my bra, resulting in a damp earbud case and a few dropped phone scares? This is when I wish I had a built-in pouch.

However, the answer to these morning quandaries and the perfect solve for a hands-free workout that doesn't leave you with a fanny pack or scouring the Australian outback is a simple one: sports bras with pockets. They are simple, keep everything safe, can be worn alone or nearly seamlessly under a workout T-shirt, and are the perfect stress-free way to make sure you have all of the essentials you need on you for a run, a hike, or even a quick jaunt to the store.
