That means that one puts them on over the head. But a tightly fitting undergarment is pretty hard to wriggle into place, especially if there&#8217;s a racerback strap (at the top of the back, just below the neck). So other sports bras I&#8217;ve worn are either so tight I can&#8217;t easily get them on and off, or so giving that they don&#8217;t provide robust support.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/stores\/node\/2600455011\/ref=as_li_ss_tl?_encoding=UTF8&amp;field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=Shock%20Absorber&amp;ref_=bl_sl_s_ap_web_2600455011&amp;linkCode=ll2&amp;tag=cooltools-20&amp;linkId=2d90d1011c27ea6403203f4640f05e85&amp;language=en_US\">Shock Absorber Run Sports Bra<\/a> has a great system of different fasteners:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A\u00a0classic strap around the chest, fastening with metal hooks and loops to adjust to different circumferences<\/li>\n<li>A pre-adjusted plastic hook clasp for the racerback<\/li>\n<li>A wide adjustable strap (running vertically down the back of the bra, from each shoulder blade to the circumference strap, ) that locks into place with long blunt metal hooks fitting into narrow fabric slots (I adjusted this the first time I put it on, then never had to fiddle with it again)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This makes it possible for the wearer to truly adjust it to their torso shape, and for the bra to get onto their body reasonably easily (as with a traditional brassiere) yet stay tightly in place during vigorous running, hiking, etc. So this bra has made it far easier for me to do running-type exercise, indoors and outdoors. They are durable, too &#8212; I am still using the one I bought in 2012, and regularly wear it. I handwash them, or put them in a delicates bag for machine washing on the &#8220;gentle&#8221; cycle; I think the few times I machine-washed without that precaution are responsible for a slight twist to the metal loops on my older bra.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2020\/03\/shock-absorber-bras-run-sports-bra-b5044-631103750170.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-35663\" src=\"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2020\/03\/shock-absorber-bras-run-sports-bra-b5044-631103750170.jpg\" alt=\"shock-absorber-bras-run-sports-bra-b5044-631103750170\" width=\"680\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2020\/03\/shock-absorber-bras-run-sports-bra-b5044-631103750170.jpg 680w, https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2020\/03\/shock-absorber-bras-run-sports-bra-b5044-631103750170-300x235.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Easy to put on sports bra<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[42],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35661"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35661"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35661\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35664,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35661\/revisions\/35664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
