The Santi Wave by ASAKE-OGE is an African print racerback sports bra constructed from 82% polyester and 18% spandex four-way stretch fabric at 6.78 oz/yd², featuring moisture-wicking quick-dry technology, flat seams and bias binding, a double-layered front, under-bust elastic band, and a bold wave-pattern Ankara-inspired print in cerulean blue, golden yellow, and deep crimson, available in sizes XS to 2XL at $86.
About the Santi Wave
The Santi Wave print is an interlocking flow of cerulean blue, golden yellow, and deep crimson in curved, wave-like motifs that create an optical illusion of constant movement. This is not a passive pattern: it pulses, and it was designed to. The visual language draws directly from West African Ankara textile tradition, reinterpreted through the lens of high-performance activewear design.
The fabric is 82% polyester and 18% spandex; a soft-touch, smooth microfiber that performs without restriction. The four-way stretch means the bra moves with your body in every direction and recovers its shape after every session. At 6.78 oz/yd², the fabric weight delivers structure and coverage without heaviness. Moisture-wicking technology pulls sweat away from the skin and the quick-dry properties mean you stay comfortable whether you are in a studio, on a trail, or transitioning from workout to the rest of your day. The flat seams and bias binding sit flush against the skin to eliminate friction and chafing during repetitive movement. The double-layered front ensures full, non-see-through coverage and adds a layer of compression across the chest. A wide elastic band anchors under the bust to keep the bra stable during overhead movements without rolling or riding up.
The Santi Wave is optimised for a medium compression profile; it performs best for A to C cups in low-to-medium impact activities such as yoga, Pilates, walking, cycling, and studio training. It can also be worn by larger cup sizes as a supportive layer under a mesh performance tank.

How to Style This African Print Sports Bra
For the athlete: pair with high-waisted moisture-wicking leggings and minimalist trainers for studio sessions. The flat-seam construction and four-way stretch ensure total mobility through sun salutations, intervals, or reformer Pilates. For the full coordinated training look, explore African print women's leggings and athleisure bottoms from ASAKE-OGE; your cross-sell pick for a matching set moment.
For the traveller: wear as a supportive base layer under an open, oversized linen shirt with tailored shorts. The moisture-wicking and quick-dry fabric transitions from a morning beach walk to a seaside lunch without missing a beat. It is a space-saving essential that earns its place in every carry-on.
For the urbanist: layer the Santi Wave under a semi-sheer mesh knit top or an unbuttoned structured blazer. Pair with high-waisted black trousers and chunky sandals for a look that bridges technical activewear and street-luxe.
